Intro:   E     G#7/D#     C#m      A  - B     x2

E          G#7/D#          C#m                 A    -  B
Down that road there's a man who's lived his whole life 
E          G#7/D#          C#m                 A    -  B
Inside a rubber shoe he doesn't know what to do
E          G#7/D#          C#m                 A    -  B
And young girls spend their lives calling him outside 
E          G#7/D#          C#m                 A    -  B
With a bag of coins he doesn't know what to do
E            G#7/D#      C#m           A    -  B
When the sun shines like butter cup he laces up 
E           G#7/D#           C#m              A    -  B
His tiny home and makes for a new life in the city

[Chorus]
E             G#7/D#         C#m  -   G#7       A    -  C
Forgetting the black skies open your heart show us who you are 
E             G#7/D#         C#m  -  G#7       A    -  C    (C)
Forgetting the black skies open your heart show us who you are

[Post Chorus]
E      G#7/D#      C#m     A    -  B
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
E      G#7/D#      C#m     A    -  B
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah

[Verse 2]
E           G#7/D#      C#m               A    -  B
All night I waste, so much time signing dotted lines 
E           G#7/D#      C#m               A    -  B
In the bank each day, oh yes I do silly me 
E           G#7/D#      C#m               A    -  B
And i see young men  waste their youth acting all uncool in the 
E           G#7/D#      C#m               A    -  B
back of a bar somewhere deep down in the city

[Chorus x2]

[Bridge]
C#
C#             E                G#
And when the policeman comes for him  
            G#                 C#
I hope he's got his piece of paper 
                     E           G#
So he can prove that he is who he is
                  G#            C#
He's alive and nobody could say different
           E                 G#
It'd be a shame if you knew no one 
                  G#             C#
And you have to piss him back to nowhere
    E        G#      G#
to nowhere to nowhere

[Outro]
C#       E         G#     G#
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah   x4
