The chords for the first verse are the same for
all the others:
Cm
I sit and watch you from my window
Gm
Giving yourself away
G# Gm7 Cm
You've been working hard all day
Cm
I see the ground catch at your feet
Gm
I see the sweet signs of defeat
G# Gm7 Cm
Like you're beaten but you feel no pain
And then you turn to me instinctively
checking if you're alone
like a relfex from my guilty mind
I fall away into the background like a shadow on the wall
To leave you with your piece of mind
Chorus:
I watch from my window up high
All alone in this room
So many people go the same way
I think it's time that I change my view(s)
Like a king in his lonely kingdom
A ruler who had no rules
See I've got nothing left to lose
I think it's time that I change my view(S)
Cm
Why did you choose my way
Gm
Why did you come down this lonely street
G#
Was it to meet me
Gm7 Cm
Was it to tango with the roots they sound so sweet
Play these notes short & sharp:

walking along this lonely street
Gm
someone I'd like to meet
G# Gm7
Someone I'd like to know
Cm
As a kindred soul
Gm F7 G# Cm Gm
oh so spiritual the sound ran down like waterfalls
G#
running away never the same
Gm7 Cm
Changing my view of you everyday
Then a solo in Cm with the original chord progression as the
backing, and finishing with the chorus:
[I watch from my window up high,
All alone in this room,
So many people go the same way,
I think it's time that I changed my views
Like a king in his lonely kingdom,
A ruler who had no rules, Ooh
oh I got nothing got left to lose,
I think it’s time that I changed my views] (x5)
