{VERSE}

C                  G         Em        C              G
Love don't live at home, oh no, it slithers in the wild
                                  
Em  C               G                Am
I met her at the Biltmore, she was cold and over-styled

Em     D/F# G         Am      G/B C
Took all my money and took all my pride
                                
 Em     C      D           G                         Em
She may not be a pharaoh, but she guzzled down the Nile.


           {CHORUS}

G
I can tell we'll never be safe

'Til the walls fall down.
G
Every morning chipping away

'Til the walls fall down.

C                  G          Em        C              G
Won't you cry on my shoulder, won't you laugh at my jokes?

Em  C               G                Am
It's okay to relax in this forest of folks

Em     D/F# G         Am      G/B C
Cause nobody's aiming a stick at your spokes

Em     C      D           G                         Em
So won't you cry on my shoulder, won't you laugh at my jokes?


G                                   Fm     G
I'm wide awake, I'm wide awake, I'm wide awake   (x2)
    C   G/B    Am      G
And now you're back in town, I know you want to
C    G/B  Am       D#
show your New York crown
  G/B    Am       G      Am  
But now you're much too proud,
   D        G
You're too cool.

C                  G         Em        C              G
On the road I dream of home and when at home I dream of action.

Em  C               G                Am
Our apartments are all haunted by the ghost of satisfaction.

Em     D/F# G         Am      G/B C
Cause we all want something that's bigger than fashion.

Em     C      D           G                      Em
So spill out your heart brother, show me your passion


Em     C      D           G                   Em
Spill out your heart sister, show me your passion.


                       {CHORUS}

G
I can tell we'll never be safe

'Til the walls fall down.

Every morning chipping away

'Til the walls fall down.
