Intro: | E | E D/E | E | E D/E | D A E I'm not a rat to be spat on locked up in this room. D A E Those bars that look towards the sun at night look towards the moon. G A E Everyday the swallows play in the clouds of love. G F#m B Make me wish that I had wings take me high above. CHORUS: Am7 G D A And I looked high - and saw the empty sky. Am7 G D A If I could only, I could only fly. G D/F# A/E A I'd drift with them in endless space. G D/F# E But no man flies from this place. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/e/elton-john/258976.html ] D A E At night I lay upon my bench and stare towards the stars. D A E The cold night air comes creeping in and home seems oh so far. G A E If only I could swing upon those twinkling dots above. G F#m B I'd look down from the heavens upon the ones I love. {Repeat Chorus} D A E Hey - the lucky locket hangs around your precious neck. D A E Some luck I ever got with you and I - wouldn't like to bet - G A E that sooner or later you'll own just one half of this land. G F#m B By shining your eyes on the wealth of every man. D D/A A E D A E Just send up my love. Ain't seen nothing but tears. D A E D A E Now I've got myself - in this room for years. D A E D A E Don't see no one one, Never see anyone D A E D A E Yeah we're high, yeah D A E |
