[Intro] G   Em   C  D  
GWe've lived in bars
And Emdanced on tables
CHotel trains Dand ships that sail
GWe swim with sharks
And Emfly with aeroplanes in the CairD  
GSend in the trumpets
The Emmarching wheelchairs
COpen the blankets and Dgive them some air
GSwords and arches Embones and cement
The Clight and the dark of the innocent of Dmen
CWe know your Amhouse so very wellD  
CAnd we will wake you once we've Amwalked up
All your Dstairs
GThere's nothing like living in a Embottle
And Cnothing like ending it all Dfor the world
GWe're so glad Emyou will come back
CEvery living lion will lay in Dyour lap
GThe kid has a homecoming the Emchampion the horse
CWho's going to play drums, guitar Dor organ with a chorus
GAs far as we've walked from Emboth of ends of the sand
CNever have we caught a glDimpse of this man
CWe know your Amhouse so very wellD  
And we will Cbust down your Amdoor if you're Dnot there
GWe've livEmed in bars
And Cdanced on Dtables
GHotel trEmains and shCips that saDil
GWe swim wiEmth sharks
And Cfly with aeDroplanes out of here
