There will come a knockin' at the door

Why is everybody makin' eyes at me?

I don't want to know

Meet again

I can see the people on the street
G+G     A minorAm     G+G
Open those windows up
G+G
A augmentedA hundred floors below me
A minorAm      G+G
Pilin' those houses up
G+G      A minorAm       G+G
Pilin' them higher, higher, higher
G+G        A minorAm        G+G
I can feel them swayin' back and forth
G+G      A minorAm
Building it higher, higher
G+G             A minorAm
This tower's learning over

    A minorAm
I got bad coordination
    G+G
Stuck a pencil in my eye

I can hardly wait to get back home
A minorAm            G+G
Why is everybody gettin' paranoid?
  A minorAm       G+G
I's only havin' fun
A minorAm      G+G
Scum-bags and superstars

Both the same


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

| C majorC | % |

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


Chorus:

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