Intro:    D  C(2 strums) (4x)  E  
E (w\ riff)
The man at the back has a question
His tongue's involved with solutions
But the monkey on my back won't stop laughing
Chorus:
DOver the wall, Chand in Dhand
DOver the wall, Cwatch us Dfall
There's something to be said for you
And your hopes of higher ruling
But the slug on my neck won't stop chewing
Chorus
I'm walking in the rain to end this misery
I'm walking in the rain to celebrate this misery
What's that you say? Speak up I can't hear
What did you say? I couldn't hear
Chorus
Pounding the road coast to coast
Pounding the road coast to coast
Come over the wall...
I can't sleep at night
How I wish you'd hold me tight (5X)
Hold me tight
To the logical limit...
Riff:

The man at the back has a question

His tongue's involved with solutions

But the monkey on my back won't stop laughing

Chorus:

Over the wall, hand in hand

Over the wall, watch us fall

There's something to be said for you

And your hopes of higher ruling

But the slug on my neck won't stop chewing

I'm walking in the rain to end this misery

I'm walking in the rain to celebrate this misery

What's that you say? Speak up I can't hear

Come over the wall...

I can't sleep at night

How I wish you'd hold me tight (5X)

Hold me tight

To the logical limit...
