Capo 5

G5  C5  A5  F5
G5  C5  
                                               
                              G5  C5
Something's frying   
                              G5  C5
On the floor below               
                              G5  F5
I'm leaning out 
                              G5  C5
Of my window             

                              G5  C5
The sky's on fire           
                                     G5  C5
The streets all aglow           
                                        G5  F5
And somebody's singing 
                     G5  
To the radio         

G5                      C5
I would jump from the sixteenth floor
A5                  F5
If I only could get next to you        
G5                C5
Put my head in a lions jaw
A5                  F5                                         G5  C5
If I only could get next to you next to you     

                                    G5  C5
I'm walking the floor 
                                    G5  C5
I'm climbing the walls
                                           G5  F5
I wake up from dreaming
                             G5
That's when I fall   

G5                     C5
I would jump from the sixteenth floor
A5                  F5
If I only could get next to you        
G5                C5
Put my head in a lions jaw
A5                  F5
If I only could get next to you next to you 
G5                C5
Take a ride on a wrecking ball       
A5                 F5
Yes I would darling                      
D5          G5
Every day I speak your name          
D5                 G5
If I had wings I'd fly          
D5              
'Cause you're not here to hold me             

G5                     C5
I would jump from the sixteenth floor
A5                  F5
If I only could get next to you        
G5                C5
Put my head in a lions jaw
A5                  F5
If I only could get next to you next to you 
G5                C5
Take a ride on a wrecking ball       
A5                 F5
Yes I would darling                      
D5          G5
Every day I speak your name          
D5                 G5
If I had wings I'd fly          
D5              
There's no one here to hold me         

Funky Instrumental Bit - Mostly C and G I think
                                                                       
G5           C5            A5  F5
I'd walk on burning coal                               
G5           C5            A5  F5
I'd sell my only soul
G5           C5                           A5  F5
I would jump from the sixteenth floor
G5           C5                    A5  F5
Put my head in a lions jaw (yes I would)                                    
G5           C5                 A5  F5
Take a ride on Niagara Falls                                    
G5           C5                   A5  F5
Over broken glass I would crawl

Ad lib - fade - or a quick G C like through the song is a good way to wrap up quickly
