C/G  B7

[Verse 1]
Em
She was there, diamonds in her hair
Am                        Em
Singing out a dead man's song
Em
Here am I with the mighty and the high
Am                     Em
Feeling like I don't belong
Em
There's you in your book of who's who
Am                          Em
Acting like you just don't care
Em
We were lying low
Em
Got nowhere to go
Am                        Em
And any road will get us there

[Chorus]
G  D            Am                        Em
     We never should've left town in the first place
G  D              Am                         Em
     Now we gotta walk like they talk in the rat race
G  D               Am                       Em
     You keep your eyes on the prize if you want it all

[Post-Chorus]
C/G
You and I, spider and the fly
B7
Will meet where the shadows fall

[Interlude]
Em

[Verse 2]
Em
Make room for the man who built the moon
Am                        Em
He arrived on a knackered horse
Em
Made no sound from the day he left town
Am                     Em
No one said a word of course
Em
I believe he was wearing on his sleeve
Am                         Em
A heart made of blackened stone
Em
I said, my love I think I've had enough
Am                          Em
I'm gonna find my way back home

[Chorus]
G  D            Am                        Em
     We never should've left town in the first place
G  D              Am                         Em
     Now we gotta walk like they talk in the rat race
G  D               Am                       Em
     You keep your eyes on the prize if you want it all

[Post-Chorus]
C/G
You and I, spider and the fly
B7
Will meet where the shadows fall

Em
G D Am Em x4

[Chorus]
G  D            Am                        Em
     We never should've left town in the first place
G  D              Am                         Em
     Now we gotta walk like they talk in the rat race
G  D               Am                       Em
     You keep your eyes on the prize if you want it all
