[Intro]
Gm A# D# G# D# Gm A# D# G# A# A
[Verse 1]
D C G D I was committed to life and then commuted to the outskirts G A With all the love in the world D C G Living for thirty minutes at a time A With a break in the middle for adverts D C G D But it's a wonderful world within these cinema walls G A D Where a shower of affection becomes Niagara Falls C G A And you wish she could step down from the screen
To your seat in the stalls
[Chorus]
F#m G F#m 'Cause if stars are only painted on the ceiling above A G Then who can you turn to and who do you love? Em A I want to get out while I still can D I want to be like Harry Houdini A# D Now I'm the invisible man
[Bridge]
Gm D# G# My head is spinning round faster and faster Gm D# G# Here I stand on the edge of disaster D# A# A I'm shattered like a piece of crystal porcelain or alabaster
[Break]
D C D C G D C A
[Chorus]
F#m G F#m 'Cause if stars are only painted on the ceiling above A G Then who can you turn to and who do you love? Em D I want to get out while I still can
[Verse 2]
D C G D Crowds surround loudspeakers hanging from the lampposts G A D Listening to the murder mystery C G A Meanwhile someone's hiding in the classroom
Forging the books of history
D C G D Never mind there’s a good film showing tonight G A D Where they hang everybody who can read and write C G A Oh that could never happen here
But then again it might
[Chorus]
F#m G F#m 'Cause if stars are only painted on the ceiling above A G Then who can you turn to and who do you love? Em A I want to get out while I still can D I want to be like Harry Houdini A# D Now I'm the invisible man A# Now I'm the invisible man
Now I'm the invisible man
D Now I'm the invisible man A D A D A And you won't see me
[repeat D & A till fade]
