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