[Verse 1]
Am I have tried marijuana G I get nervous every time Am G There will come a knockin' at the door Am G Why is everybody makin' eyes at me? G Am G I don't want to know
[Bridge]
Am G Excuse and pardon me Am G Stay for a while Am G Maybe we'll never G Am G Meet again
[Chorus]
G Am G I can see my lifetime piling up G Am G I can see the days turn into nights G Am G I can see the people on the street G Am G Open those windows up G A hundred floors below me Am G Pilin' those houses up G Am G Pilin' them higher, higher, higher G Am G I can feel them swayin' back and forth G Am Building it higher, higher G Am This tower's learning over
[Verse 2]
Am I got bad coordination G Stuck a pencil in my eye Am G I can hardly wait to get back home Am G Why is everybody gettin' paranoid? Am G I's only havin' fun Am G Scum-bags and superstars Am G Tell me your names Am G I'll make a bet, you're G Am G Both the same
[Chorus]
G Am G I can see my lifetime pilin' up G Am G Reaching from my bedroom to the stars G Am G I can see the house where I was born G Am G When I was growin' up - they say that G Am G I could never keep my trousers up G Am G I remember days and crazy nights G Am G Are there any pirates on this ship? G Am G And if they sober up - they'll have us home by morning
[Bridge]
| C | % |
C Dm Cry, cry, cry Dm Am It's just you and I Am Dm Like an automobile Dm Am With no one at the wheel Am Dm Spinning out of control F C We're all over the road C G In our sexy machine G All the passengers Am G Scream, scream, scream!
[Chorus]
G Am G I can see my lifetime pilin' up G Am G I can see it smashin' into yours G Am G It was not an accident at all G Am G Open your window up - I hear you laughin' G Am G Goin' one, two, three, four, five G Am G Goin' from the bottom to the top G Am G Maybe I'm holding on too tight G Am And now I'm growin' up G I got a funny feeling Am G Pilin' those houses up G Am G Pilin' them higher, higher, higher G Am G Building that highway to the stars G Am G And turning the music up - Hey! G I got a winning number
