Fm we'll be fine. ( 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 F Gm I'll wake you when something changes C then I'll ring all the bells again F Gm and you'll spill champagne in my shoes C We'll make rose-coloured smoke F Gm from bad horoscopes, confetti from news pages C F CGm and you'll be mine... F you'll be mine. C G C F and the same heart attack Em F C will keep feeding back G C F right under the street Em F G FG skipping every other beat 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 F Gm for billions counting backwards C like a dog on a fire escape, Gm like a bird in a basement Am Now release your breath from its paper bag Em and no matter what you hear F if green lights should rain down tonight Dm G it means tomorrow's another year C G C F The same heart attack Em F C will keep feeding back G C F right under the street Em F G skipping every other beat Dm Am Hey living thing, you're breathing again G FC you're breathing again End on: Fill/Outro
