Intro
C majorC
Hey living thing, buy me a drink
FF 
A minorAm G+G
and drive me out to the airport
C majorC
give me two hundred dollars and say
FF A minorAm G+G
the best thing anyone's ever said
C majorC
if you steal every word, from your grandmother's purse
FF A minorAm G+G
and lay them out on the dashboard
C majorC FF C majorC FF A minorAm G+G
we'll be fine...
C majorC G+G C majorC FF 
E minorEm FF
we'll be fine.
C majorC
Hey living thing, if you're turning in
FF A minorAm G+G
I'll wake you when something changes
C majorC
then I'll ring all the bells again
FF A minorAm G+G
and you'll spill champagne in my shoes
C majorC
We'll make rose-coloured smoke
FF A minorAm G+G
from bad horoscopes, confetti from news pages
C majorC FF C majorC FF A minorAm G+G
and you'll be mine...
FF
you'll be mine.
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
and the same heart attack
E minorEm FF G+G FF C majorC
will keep feeding back
G+G C majorC FF
right under the street
E minorEm FF G+G FF G+G
skipping every other beat
Fill/Outro
(Hey living thing, let me in to the world you live in)
C majorC FF A minorAm G+G x2
C majorC
Hey living thing, you've waited for it
FF A minorAm G+G
for billions counting backwards
C majorC
like a dog on a fire escape,
FF A minorAm G+G
like a bird in a basement
A minorAm
Now release your breath from its paper bag
E minorEm
and no matter what you hear
FF
if green lights should rain down tonight
DmDm G+G
it means tomorrow's another year
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
The same heart attack
E minorEm FF G+G FF C majorC
will keep feeding back
G+G C majorC FF
right under the street
E minorEm FF G+G FF G+G
skipping every other beat
DmDm A minorAm
Hey living thing, you're breathing again
G+G FF C majorC
you're breathing again
End on:
