Well, my friends are [B] gone and my hair is gray
I ache in the places where I used to play [E] and I'm crazy for love
But I'm not [B] coming on _ _ _ _
[F#] I'm just paying my rent every [E] day in the Tower [B] of Song _ _ _ _ _
I said to Hank Williams how lonely does it get?
_ Hank Williams hasn't answered yet, but [E] I hear him coughing _ _
[B] all night long _ _ _ _
Oh [F#m] a hundred [C#] floors above [E] me
in the Tower [B] of Song _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ I [B] was born like this
I had no choice
I was born with the gift of a golden voice
[E] and 27 angels
_ from the great [B] beyond _
_ _ _ _ [F#] They tied me to this table [E] right here in the [B] Tower of Song _
_ _ _ So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll
I'm very sorry, baby.
It doesn't look like me at all.
[E] I'm standing by the window
_ [G] Where the light [B] is strong _
_ _ _ How [F#] they don't let a woman kill [E] you
not in the Tower [B] of Song _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ Now [B] you can say that I've grown bitter but of this you may be sure
The rich have [F#m] got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor and [E] there's a mighty judgment coming
_ But I may [B] be wrong _
_ _ _ You [F#] see I hear these funny voices [E] _ in the Tower [B] of Song _
_ _ _ I
[G#m] _ See standing [F#] on the other side [G#m] I don't
How the [F#] river got so wide [E] I loved you, baby
_ _ _ Way [B] back when _
_ _ _ And [G#m] all the bridges are burning [F#] that we might have crossed
But [G#m] I feel so close to [F#] everything we lost [E] we'll never _
We'll never lose [F#] it again _ _
_ _ _ [B] Did [B] you farewell don't know when I'll be back
They're moving us tomorrow to the tower down the track, but [E] you'll be hearing from me, baby
long after
[B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#] I'll be speaking to you [E] sweetly from a window [Em] the Tower [B] of Song _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ [B] Yeah, my friends are gone and my hair is green I
In the places where I used to play [E] and I'm crazy for love
_ [G] But I'm not [B] coming on _
_ _ _ I'm [F#] just paying rent every [E] day [Em] in the Tower [B] of Song _ _
