Am
I see the city from my roof
A#ADm
Scr*pe the sky and p**s the moon.
AA#
I toss a brick and hit a bottle.
ADmA
I used to have such a fiery soul
A#ADm
Now it's full of cigarette holes.
AA#A
But scars tell better stories.
GmDm
You're just copper under water
Gm
Your hope is just a dream
A
Till you mix truth and purity.
GmDm
What a hell of a hangover
Gm
You won't find me under ground.
A
On the rooftops I'll be found.
DmA
Well I'll spit on your fuse
A#ADm
And twist you out under my shoe
AA#
Yeah go ahead and knock it down, child
A
It's nothing new.
DmA
I'll just watch the buildings burn
A#ADm
So wake me up when you've freed the earth.
AA#
You say I've sold my values
ADm
Yeah, but you paid for the view.
GmDm
You're just copper under water
Gm
Your hope is just a dream
A
Till you mix truth and purity.
GmDm
What a hell of a hangover
Gm
You won't find me under ground.
A
On the rooftops I'll be found.
DmA
I see the city from my roof
A#ADm
Like a foreign land from a family room
AA#A
Oh, how I once detested it's abuse.
DmA
Now the lights all look like stars
A#ADm
And there's solice from afar.
AA#
I toss a smoke and watch it tumble
ADm
Into the whisper of passing cars.
Well on the rooftops I'll be found.
Well on the rooftops I'll be found.
Well on the rooftops I'll be found.
Well on the rooftops lookin' down.
