Chords with lyrics

FOURTH FLOOR by "The Waifs"
Capo on 4
Intro:
G+G  G+G  C majorC  G+G  C majorC  D MajorD  G+G
Verse 1:
G+G	C majorC
On the fourth floor of a building
G+G	C majorC
In a shallow window box,
G+G	C majorC
She's digging in the soil with a silver spoon
	G+G	D MajorD
With her hands inside of rubber gloves
G+G	C majorC
Panting seed, pulling out weed
G+G	C majorC
The cycle of life is complete
G+G	C majorC
Who would have thought it in a city of stone?
G+G	D MajorD	G+G
Four floors above the street.

Chord Progression stays the same for the rest of the song

I cannot tell what kind of flowers they are
I'm too far below on the street
But the colour they add to the building so drab
Is a warm splash of welcome relief
Yeah it's something worthwhile for the sun to shine on
A augmentedA reason to radiate heat
Yeah that small window box it puts a skip in my feet
Four floors above the street

Repeat chord progression once

And for every good seed she plants in the soil
There's a dozen bad waiting to grow
To strangle the goodness she's trying to nurture
And kill all the seeds that she's sown
Every time you water the garden
You also water the weeds
A augmentedA profound illustration of sin and temptation
Four floors above the street

Some people don't understand why she does it
Some people ask for a reason
Maybe she just likes the feel of the soil
And keeping in tune with the seasons
Maybe she has so much pride in herself
Got to keep it all visually pleasing
A augmentedA small paradise in a world of concrete
Four floors above the street.

(Repeat last two lines and then end on a G+G).
