_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ [F] _ _ _ _ Something's frying [C] _ [F] on _ the floor below [C] _ [F] I'm _ _ leaning [C] at _ [Bb] _ _ my window
[C] _ _ [F] The _ sky's on fire, _ _ _ _ the streets all aglow [C] _ [F] _ _ _ _
Somebody's singing [C] _ [Bb] the _ _ _ radio
_ [C] I would jump [F] from the 16th floor [Dm] _ If only I [Bb] could get next to [C] you
Couldn't wait, [F] ain't lying still _ [Dm] If only I could [Bb] get next to [C] you
_ [F] _ _
I'm walking the floor, _ _ _ _ climbing the wall _ _ _ _ Wake up from dreaming, [C] _ _ [Bb] _ _
that's where I fall
[C] _ I would jump from [F] the 16th floor [Dm] _ If only I [Bb] could get next to [C] you
Couldn't wait, [F] ain't lying still _ [Dm] _ If only [Bb] I could get next to [C] you
Oh, the broken [F] glass, I would [Dm] crawl _ _ [Bb] Yes, I would
_ _ [Gm] _ [Dm] Every day [C] I speak your [Gm] name If I [C] had wings, I'd fly
[Gm] _ [Dm] You're not here [Bb] to _ hold
[C] _ I would [F] jump from the _ _ [Dm] 16th floor [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] _ With my [F] head in a lion's jaw
[Dm] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
I'd walk [F] from that _ [Dm] incarnate _
_ [Bb] hall _ _ [C] _ _
I'd sell [F] my all, that's [Dm] all
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
[Dm] Every day [C] I speak your [Gm] name [Dm] If I had [C] wings, I'd fly
[Gm] _ You're not here [Bb] to _ _ [C] hold _
I'd [F] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gm] _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ [C] _ _
walk [F] from that _ [Dm] incarnate hall [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
I'd sell [F] my all, that's [Dm] all _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] _ I'd jump [F] from the 16th _ [Dm] _ _ _
[Bb] floor _ _ _ [C] _ With my [F] head in a lion's jaw
[Dm] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _

_ [F] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] I'd walk [F] from that _ [Dm] incarnate _ hall [Bb] _ _ _ [C] _ _ I'd sell [F] my all, that's [Dm] all _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[F] My all, that's [Dm] all _ _

Talking about it before, we went on and he said he's going to do it for [N] the Cowboys.
