Verse 1:
    Am
I have tried marijuana
   G
I get nervous every time
Am                G
There will come a knockin' at the door
Am           G
Why is everybody makin' eyes at me?
G        Am   G
I don't want to know

Bridge:
Am     G
Excuse and pardon me
Am     G
Stay for a while
Am     G
Maybe we'll never
G   Am  G
Meet again


Chorus:
G      Am       G
I can see my lifetime piling up
G       Am       G
I can see the days turn into nights
G       Am      G
I can see the people on the street
G     Am     G
Open those windows up
G
A hundred floors below me
Am      G
Pilin' those houses up
G      Am       G
Pilin' them higher, higher, higher
G        Am        G
I can feel them swayin' back and forth
G      Am
Building it higher, higher
G             Am
This tower's learning over


Verse 2:
    Am
I got bad coordination
    G
Stuck a pencil in my eye
Am              G
I can hardly wait to get back home
Am            G
Why is everybody gettin' paranoid?
  Am       G
I's only havin' fun
Am      G
Scum-bags and superstars
Am      G
Tell me your names
Am     G
I'll make a bet, you're
G    Am G
Both the same


Chorus:
G      Am       G
I can see my lifetime pilin' up
G        Am       G
Reaching from my bedroom to the stars
G       Am        G
I can see the house where I was born
G     Am     G
When I was growin' up - they say that
G       Am        G
I could never keep my trousers up
G     Am       G
I remember days and crazy nights
G       Am       G
Are there any pirates on this ship?
G      Am    G
And if they sober up - they'll have us home by morning


Bridge:
| C | % |

C     Dm
Cry, cry, cry
Dm        Am
It's just you and I
Am      Dm
Like an automobile
Dm         Am
With no one at the wheel
Am       Dm
Spinning out of control
F         C
We're all over the road
C       G
In our sexy machine
G
All the passengers
Am       G
Scream, scream, scream!


Chorus:
G      Am       G
I can see my lifetime pilin' up
G      Am      G
I can see it smashin' into yours
G       Am     G
It was not an accident at all
G     Am    G
Open your window up - I hear you laughin'
G   Am           G
Goin' one, two, three, four, five
G       Am      G
Goin' from the bottom to the top
G     Am       G
Maybe I'm holding on too tight
G      Am
And now I'm growin' up
G
I got a funny feeling
Am      G
Pilin' those houses up
G      Am       G
Pilin' them higher, higher, higher
G       Am       G
Building that highway to the stars
G        Am     G
And turning the music up - Hey!
G
