+TheC lights are on but no one is in.
[Chorus]
A7Take it to the bridge throw it overboard
Em7See if it can swim back up to the shore
A7No one’s in the house everyone is out
Em7All the lights are on and the blinds are down

Em7See if it can swim back up to the shore
A7No one’s in the house everyone is out
Em7All the lights are on and the blinds are down

A7 I feel like I'm Em7running up a A7steep hill
No one can Em7stop me from running,
D The hourglass has no more grains of A/C#sand
My watch has stopped no more turning Bmhands
BmThe little hand shakes its fist
The Cface is hanging out on a spring.
