The chords for the first verse are the same for all the others:
I sit and Cmwatch you from my window
GmGiving yourself away
AbYou've been working Gm7hard all Cmday
I see the Cmground catch at your feet
GmI see the sweet signs of defeat
AbLike you're beaten but you Gm7feel no Cmpain
And then you turn to me instinctively
checking if you're alone
like a relfex from my guilty mind
I fall away into the background like a shadow on the wall
To leave you with your piece of mind
Chorus:
I watch from my window up high
All alone in this room
So many people go the same way
I think it's time that I change my view(s)
Like a king in his lonely kingdom
A ruler who had no rules
See I've got nothing left to lose
I think it's time that I change my view(S)
CmWhy did you choose my way
Why did you Gmcome down this lonely street
Was it to Abmeet me
Was it to Gm7tango with the roots they sound so Cmsweet
   walking along this lonely street
Gmsomeone I'd like to meet
AbSomeone I'd like to Gm7know
As a Cmkindred soul
Gmoh so F7spiritAbual the Cmsound ran down like Gmwaterfalls
running away Abnever the same
Gm7Changing my view oCmf you everyday
Then a solo in Cm with the original chord progression as the
backing, and finishing with the chorus:
[I watch from my window up high,
All alone in this room,
So many people go the same way,
I think it's time that I changed my views
Like a king in his lonely kingdom,
A ruler who had no rules, Ooh
oh I got nothing got left to lose,
I think it’s time that I changed my views] (x5)

Gm7

The chords for the first verse are the same for all the others:

I sit and watch you from my window

Giving yourself away

Ab Gm7 Cm

You've been working hard all day

I see the ground catch at your feet

I see the sweet signs of defeat

Ab Gm7 Cm

Like you're beaten but you feel no pain

And then you turn to me instinctively

checking if you're alone

like a relfex from my guilty mind

I fall away into the background like a shadow on the wall

To leave you with your piece of mind

Chorus:

I watch from my window up high

All alone in this room

So many people go the same way

I think it's time that I change my view(s)

Like a king in his lonely kingdom

A ruler who had no rules

See I've got nothing left to lose

I think it's time that I change my view(S)

Why did you choose my way

Why did you come down this lonely street

Was it to meet me

Gm7 Cm

Was it to tango with the roots they sound so sweet

walking along this lonely street

someone I'd like to meet

Ab Gm7

Someone I'd like to know

As a kindred soul

Gm F7 Ab Cm Gm

oh so spiritual the sound ran down like waterfalls

running away never the same

Gm7 Cm

Changing my view of you everyday

Then a solo in Cm with the original chord progression as the

backing, and finishing with the chorus:

[I watch from my window up high,

All alone in this room,

So many people go the same way,

I think it's time that I changed my views

Like a king in his lonely kingdom,

A ruler who had no rules, Ooh

oh I got nothing got left to lose,

I think it’s time that I changed my views] (x5)
