Standard (EADGBE)

Say it's alright Joe,

 I need another drink

  (can also be played /G)

To blow on the glass so I know I'm alive

Play me a song Joe

 To fill the hours till morning

 Then never again will I bother you

Ooh, Build myself a tower

 No way in no way out.

Then my friends can visit me

Once in a while.

Say it's alright Joe.

 I need some reassurance

 You never know what you might find in the night.

Ooh I'm just a busy bee, still alive in my hive,

Looking for some other world

 To dream out my dreams.

 Synth Notes:(| | | over on "Kings")

 There were Kings who were laughing in the rain

 And they told me I'd come here to lead the parade

 All the colours were changing, the sky was in ruins

 The lights are all shining on me and on you

Shine on...

Say it's alright Joe

 The night will soon be over

 And nothing and no one will ever know.

Open my eyes Joe

 I'd like to see the daylight

 The clock on the wall says it's time to leave.

Never seen the same face twice

 Never walked the same way

 The little love that I have known

 I keep to myself.

 There's a fire it's asleep in my bed

 I must leave it to burn until it burns itself out

Catch as you can I'm not staying here long

 I'll be coming back early or never at all

Shine on...
