Intro
C
Hey living thing, buy me a drink
F Am G
and drive me out to the airport
C
give me two hundred dollars and say
F Am G
the best thing anyone's ever said
C
if you steal every word, from your grandmother's purse
F Am G
and lay them out on the dashboard
C F C F Am G
we'll be fine...
C G C F Em F
we'll be fine.
C
Hey living thing, if you're turning in
F Am G
I'll wake you when something changes
C
then I'll ring all the bells again
F Am G
and you'll spill champagne in my shoes
C
We'll make rose-coloured smoke
F Am G
from bad horoscopes, confetti from news pages
C F C F Am G
and you'll be mine...
F
you'll be mine.
C G C F
and the same heart attack
Em F G F C
will keep feeding back
G C F
right under the street
Em F G F G
skipping every other beat
Fill/Outro
(Hey living thing, let me in to the world you live in)
C F Am G x2
C
Hey living thing, you've waited for it
F Am G
for billions counting backwards
C
like a dog on a fire escape,
F Am G
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
Dm G
it means tomorrow's another year
C G C F
The same heart attack
Em F G F C
will keep feeding back
G C F
right under the street
Em F G F G
skipping every other beat
Dm Am
Hey living thing, you're breathing again
G F C
you're breathing again
End on:
Fill/Outro
