[D][F#m][D][G][D][G]
[D]
[G]
[D]Well, we returned

[Verse 1]
[D]
to that five -room flat
[G]Now it was [D]empty,
and [G]this the [Asus4]last time
There were [D]blinkin' pictures
of [G]how [D]we'd sit and chat
[G]Some of the[D]m were scattered,
others shattered [G]on [Asus4]my mind
[G]It was[C] alw[G]ays thr[D]ee flights
of [A]cathed[G]ral bell[D]s kept t[G]ight
[D]In the [F#m]winter of [G]chatter [D]and cold
While [G]the building [D]shook
like ragweed [Asus4]in the wind
[D]Stories fro[F#m]m the heat[Bm] pipes we w[D]ere told
[G]Now they [D]only leave me with
[G]a half [Asus4]-enchanted grin
[G]It [C]was al [G]ways thr[D]ee flights
of cathedral bells kept [G]tight
Bicycles squeezed down al
[D]leyways into [A]view[D]
[G]And towels warmed on oven doors
[D]to not [G]freeze
[D]It was the [Asus4]only thing to do
[A]I w[D]onder if we took to the fair warning,
I can [G]see it in the flower[D]s
dying [Em]on the windo[Asus4]wsill.[A]
[D]I know we have to be o[G]ut by
[D]tomorrow [G]morning,
[D]but am I [G]go ing against my [Asus4]will?[D]
[G]It [C]was alw[G]ays thr[D]ee flights
of cathed[G]ral [D]bells kept [G]tight[D][G]
[D][G][D]
[G][C][D][G]
[D][C]
[G]Bicycles squeezed down alley
[D]ways into view
[G]An d towels warmed on oven doors
[D]to not [G]freeze
[D]It was the [G]only thing to do
I [D]wonder if we took to the fair warning
Cause I can see [G]it in the flower[D]s
dying on the [Asus4]win dowsi[A]ll
[D]I know we have to be out
by tomorrow morning
[G]But [D]am I going[G] against my will?
It was [D]al ways three flights up
Cathedral bells kept time
Always three flights up
[G]Cathedral bell[D]s kept time
[G][D][G][D][G][D]
[G][A][D]
