Song From The 16th Floor

Written by John Clifforth/Paul Kelly

	  		Intro 
 
G		C		Am		F  
 
Verse 1 
 
G	C		 
	Some things frying	 
G	C	 
	On the floor below 
G	C 
	I'm leaning out  
G	F 
	My window 
 
Verse 2 same pattern 
 
The sky's on fire 
The streets all a glow 
Somebody's singing  
To the radio 
 
Chorus 1 
G		        C 
I would jump from the 16th floor 
Am              F 
If only to get next to you 
G		  C 
Put my head in a lion's jaw 
Am		  F 
If i only could get next to you 
 
Verse 3 
I'm walking the floor 
I'm climbing the walls 
I wake up from dreaming 
That's when I fall 
 
Chorus 2 
I would jump from the 16th floor 
If only to get next to you 
Put my head in a lion's jaw 
If I only could get next to you 
Take a ride on a wrecking ball 
Yes I would darling 
 
Bridge 1 
 
Dm    Am  G 
Everyday I speak your name 
Dm   Am                  G 
If I had wings I would fly 
Dm                    Am      F 
Cause your'e not here to hold me 
 
Chorus 3 
G		        C              Am		F  
I would jump from the 16th floor 			Oooooh	Oooooh Oooooh 
Put my head in a lion's jaw         	    		     "           "          
" 
I would walk on burning coal            		     "           "          " 
I'd sell my only soul		    		     "           "            " 
 
Bridge 2 (as before) 
Everyday I speak your name 
If I had wings I'd fly 
Cause your'e not here to hold me 
 
Chorus 4 
 
just repeat chorus 3  
and fade out. 
 
Final Note 
To play this song without the capo here are the open chords for that key. 
Instead of G use C 
	   C use F 
               Am use Dm 
               F use Bb 
              Dm use Gm 
The End.
