Standard (EADGBE)
Teardrop windows cryin' in the sky
He is all alone and wonderin' why
Ivory white but feelin' kind of blue
Cause theres no one there to share the v iew
There's too many vacan cies
He's been feelin' oh so em pty
When the sun sets over the so und
He just goes to s leep
[He seems to hammer on the 2nd fret on the D string when playing the G chord]
Built in boast as the tallest on the coast
He was once the city's only to ast
In old postcards was positioned as a star
He was looked up to with fond re gard
But in nineteen sixty two
The needle made it's big d ebut
And everybody forgo t
What it ou tgrew
[G/f#]
He wonders where the workers are
[G/f#]
Who once filled every floor
The elevators op erate
But don't much anymore
Anymore
Anymore
Teardrop windows cryin' in the sky
How the years have quickly past her by
Gleaming white 'gainst the deepest b aby blue
He is lonely just like me and you
There's too many vacan cies
He's been feelin' oh so em pty
When the sun sets over the so und
He just goes to s leep
There's too many vacan cies
He's been feelin' oh so em pty
And when the maids they turn out the lights
He just goes to s leep
