Ivory Tower Chords by Waylon Jennings

_ _ I've _ _ _ _ _ [C] been a believer _ [F] in many things, [G] I've passed a signpost [C] or two,
_ _ I never could see why [F] the bad folks won't change, [G] or why the good ones [C] won't do.
_ _ _ Everyone's left us [F] alone to our ways, [G] thinking we might [C] have been right,
but _ I'm not so fond [F] of this being alone, [G] especially this [C] time of night.
_ _ [F] _ Here we are [C] in our ivory tower, _ all our fears left behind,
_ _ [F] _ looking on down [C] from our ivory tower [G] like everyone else has [C] lost their mind.
_ _ _ _ _ _ I've tried to look to myself [F] for my strength, [G] looked to a song [C] for release,
_ _ kept all the people I could at arm's length, [G] the ones that I never [C] could please.
_ But I've been refining the way that I feel [G] _
[D] toward all the ones [C] who are near,
and _ I've been refining the way [F] that I look [G] for all the women [C] for years.
_ [F] _
Here we are [C] in our ivory [F] tower, all our fears [C] left behind,
_ _ [F] _
looking on down [C] from our ivory [G] tower like everyone else has [C] lost their mind. _ _ _ _
