Intro
[C]Hey living thing, buy me a drink
and drive me out to the [F]airport[Am] [G]
[C]give me two hundred dollars and say
the best thing anyone's ever s[F]aid[Am] [G]
[C]if you steal every word, from your grandmother's purse
and lay them out on the d[F]ashboard[Am] [G]
we'll be [C]fin[F]e..[C].[F] [Am] [G]
we'll be fine.[C] [G] [C] [F] [Em] [F]
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/p/paul_dempsey/bird_in_a_basement_crd.html )
[C]Hey living thing, if you're turning in
I'll wake you when something c[F]hanges[Am] [G]
[C]then I'll ring all the bells again
and you'll spill champagne in my s[F]hoes[Am] [G]
[C]We'll make rose-coloured smoke
from bad horoscopes, confetti from news p[F]ages[Am] [G]
and you'll be [C]min[F]e..[C].[F] [Am] [G]
you'll be [F]mine.
[C]and the same [G]heart a[C]ttack[F]
will keep [Em]feeding[F] back[G] [F] [C]
right [G]under [C]the str[F]eet
skipping e[Em]very o[F]ther [G]bea[F]t[G]
Fill/Outro
(Hey living thing, let me in to the world you live in)
C F Am G x2
[C]Hey living thing, you've waited for it
for billions counting [F]backwards[Am] [G]
[C]like a dog on a fire escape,
like a bird in a basement[F] [Am] [G]
Now [Am]release your breath from its paper bag
and no [Em]matter what you hear
if g[F]reen lights should rain down tonight
it means tomorrow's another y[Dm]ear[G]
[C]The same [G]heart [C]attack[F]
will keep [Em]feedi[F]ng back[G] [F] [C]
right [G]und[C]er the [F]street
skipping [Em]every [F]other beat[G] [F] [G]
[Dm]Hey living thing, you're breathing [Am]again
[G]you're breathing agai[F]n[C]
