Tower Of Song Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Well, my friends are gone
and my hair is gray
I ache in the places where I used to play
And I'm [C]crazy for love
But I'm not coming [G]home
I'm just pay[D]ing my rent every day
[C]In the Tower of [G]Song
I said to Hank Williams
How lonely does it get?
Hank Williams hasn't answered me yet
But I [C]hear him coughing all night [G]long
A hun[D]dred floors above me
[C]in the tower of [G]song[C][G][D][G][D]
I was [G]born like this, I had no choice
I was born with the gift
of a golden voice sent [C]27
angels from the great beyond
[G]They tie[D]d me to this table
right here [C]in the Tower [G]of Song
So you can stick your little pins
in that voodoo doll
I'm very sorry babe,
it doesn't look like me at all
I'm stand[C]ing by the window
Where the light is [G]strong
They don't [D]let a woman king
Appear [C]in the Tower [G]of
[C]Song[G][D]
[G][D]
Now you [G]can say that I've grown bitter,
but all this to make sure
The rich have got the channels
and the bedrooms of the poor
And there's a [C]mighty judgment coming,
but I may be [G]wrong[D][C][G]
[Em][D][Em][D][C]
We are [G]turning right to Session Road
And all [Em]the bridges are burning
that we [D]might have crossed
But I feel [Em]so close to
everything [D]that we lost
We'll nev[C]er,
never have to lose it [D]again
Now I [G]bid you farewell,
I don't know when I'll be back
[D]They're [G]moving us tomorrow
to that tower down the track
But you'll be [C]hearing from me baby,
long after I'm [G]gone
I'll be speak[D]ing to you
sweetly through the [C]window
in the Tower [G]of [C]Song[G][D][G][D]
Yeah, my [G]friends are gone,
and my hair is grey
I ache in the places where I used to play
And I'm [C]crazy for love,
but I'm not coming [G]home
I'm just pay[D]ing my rent every day
[C]in the Tower of Song

[Outro 1]
