Tom: Em
Em - C - G - D
Em - C - G - D
::Verse #1::
Em C
Everyone knows it, try not to show it,
G D
This city can bring you down
Em C
I’m a believer some days are hard, but
G D
I couldn’t leave this town
::Chorus::
G G/B C
I got a skyscraper soul
Em D
Like a flower that comes where the sun never goes
G G/B C
Skyscraper soul
Em D
Filling my heart where there once was a hole
::Verse #2::
Em
Look out my window
C
Watching the sun go down
G D
On the crowds below
Em
I know the struggle,
C
Weaving through trouble
G D
Life can be hard, I know
::Chorus::
G G/B C
I got a skyscraper soul
Em D
There’s mud in my veins and there’s steel in my bones
G G/B C
Skyscraper soul
Em D C
Building it all up from water and stones, oh
::Interlude::
G - D - C
G - D - C
::Solo::
Em - C - G - D
Em - C - G - D
::Verse #3::
Em C
Look through the market stalls
Over broken walls
G D
To this hollowed ground
Em
Looks are deceiving
C
There’s a heart beating
G D
Here in this battered town
::Chorus::
G G/B C
Cause I got a skyscraper soul
Em D
Like a flower that comes where the sun never goes
G G/B C
Skyscraper soul
Em D C
Filling it all up with water and stones, oh
::Interlude::
G - D - C
G - D - C
::Solo::
Em - C - G - D
Em - C - G - D
::Chorus::
G G/B C
I’ve got a skyscraper soul
Em D
There's mud in my veins and there’s steel in my bones
G G/B C
Skyscraper soul
Em D C
Brushing the rust off and losing control,
::Outro::
G - D - C
G - D - C
Em
