[Intro]
C F
[Verse 1]
C
I was staring out the window
F
The whole time he was talking to me
C
It was a filthy pane of glass
F
I couldn't get a clear view
C
And as he went on and on
F Eb
It wasn't the outside world I could see
C Bb F
Just the filthy pane that I was looking through
[Chorus]
F E
So I had to break the window
F E
It just had to be
F E
Better that I break the window
Am F D
Than him or her or me
[Verse 2]
C
I was never focused on just one thing
F
My eyes got fixed when my mind got so
C
It may look like I'm concentrated on
F Eb
A very clear view
C
But I'm as good as asleep
F Eb
I bet you didn't know
C
It'd take a lot of it away
F Eb
If you do
[Chorus]
F E
I had to break the window
F E
It just had to be
F E
Better that I break the window
Am F D
Than him or her or me
F E
I had to break the window
F E
It just had to be
It was in my way
F E
Better that I break the window
Am F D
Than forget what I had to say
Am F D
Or miss what I should see
[Bridge]
Dm
Because the fact being that
Whatever's in front of me
C
Is covering my view
Dm
So I can't see what I'm seeing in fact
F
I only see what I'm looking through
E F E Am E D
[Verse 3]
C
So again I've done the right thing
F
I was never worried about that
C Am Eb
The answer's always been in clear view
C
But even when the window was cleaned
F Am
I still can't see for the fact
Dm
That when it's clean
Bb Dm G
It's so clear I can't tell what I'm looking through
[Chorus 3]
F E
So I had to break the window
F E
It just had to be
It was in my way
F E
Better that I break the window
Am F D
Than him or her or me
F E
I had to break the window
F E
It just had to be
It was in my way
F E
Better that I break the window
Am F D
Than miss what I should see
F E
I had to break the window
F E
It just had to be
It was in my way
F E
Better that I break the window
Am F D
Than forget what I had to say
Am F D
Or miss what I should see
Am F D
Or break him or her or me
Am F D
Especially me
Am F D
