Standard (EADGBE)

::Verse #1::

 Everyone knows it, try not to show it,

 This city can bring you down

 I’m a believer some days are hard, but

 I couldn’t leave this town

::Chorus::

 I got a skyscraper soul

 Like a flower that comes where the sun never goes

 Skyscraper soul

 Filling my heart where there once was a hole

::Verse #2::

Look out my window

Watching the sun go down

On the crowds below

I know the struggle,

Weaving through trouble

Life can be hard, I know

::Chorus::

 I got a skyscraper soul

 There’s mud in my veins and there’s steel in my bones

 Skyscraper soul

Building it all up from water and stones, oh

::Interlude::

::Solo::

::Verse #3::

Look through the market stalls

Over broken walls

To this hollowed ground

Looks are deceiving

There’s a heart beating

Here in this battered town

::Chorus::

 Cause I got a skyscraper soul

 Like a flower that comes where the sun never goes

Skyscraper soul

Filling it all up with water and stones, oh

::Interlude::

::Solo::

::Chorus::

 I’ve got a skyscraper soul

 There's mud in my veins and there’s steel in my bones

Skyscraper soul

Brushing the rust off and losing control,

::Outro::
