G  C  Am  F 
G  C   
                                                
                              G  C 
Something's frying    
                              G  C 
On the floor below                
                              G  F 
I'm leaning out  
                              G  C 
Of my window              

                              G  C 
The sky's on fire            
                                     G  C 
The streets all aglow            
                                        G  F 
And somebody's singing  
                     G   
To the radio          

G                      C 
I would jump from the sixteenth floor 
Am                  F 
If I only could get next to you         
G                C 
Put my head in a lions jaw 
Am                  F                                         G  C 
If I only could get next to you next to you      

                                    G  C 
I'm walking the floor  
                                    G  C 
I'm climbing the walls 
                                           G  F 
I wake up from dreaming 
                             G 
That's when I fall    

G                     C 
I would jump from the sixteenth floor 
Am                  F 
If I only could get next to you         
G                C 
Put my head in a lions jaw 
Am                  F 
If I only could get next to you next to you  
G                C 
Take a ride on a wrecking ball        
Am                 F 
Yes I would darling                       
Dm          G 
Every day I speak your name           
Dm                 G 
If I had wings I'd fly           
Dm               
'Cause you're not here to hold me              

G                     C 
I would jump from the sixteenth floor 
Am                  F 
If I only could get next to you         
G                C 
Put my head in a lions jaw 
Am                  F 
If I only could get next to you next to you  
G                C 
Take a ride on a wrecking ball        
Am                 F 
Yes I would darling                       
Dm          G 
Every day I speak your name           
Dm                 G 
If I had wings I'd fly           
Dm               
There's no one here to hold me          

Funky Instrumental Bit - Mostly C and G I think 
                                                                        
G           C            Am  F 
I'd walk on burning coal                                
G           C            Am  F 
I'd sell my only soul 
G           C                           Am  F 
I would jump from the sixteenth floor 
G           C                    Am  F 
Put my head in a lions jaw (yes I would)                                     
G           C                 Am  F 
Take a ride on Niagara Falls                                     
G           C                   Am  F 
Over broken glass I would crawl
