Tom: B

    E                     F#
The cold blows through my window
              G#m
Right through my bones
       B                         E   F# G#m B
I bet you don't know what that's like
    E                      F#
The sunshine comes through my blinds
           G#m
Right past my eyes
      B                          E   F# G#m B
I bet you don't know what that's like
       E                F#
In the movie you're the love scene
          G#m              B
Where the camera shows you nothing
E     F#                      G#m
  But I'm just the fly on the wall
    B
And I see it all

[Chorus]

E       F#
  Find shelter
G#m    B           E  F# G#m B
  Take cover from me
E       F#     G#m    B            E      F# G#m B
  We're living on our middle class street

[Verse 2]
        E                 F#
I'm the suburbs, he's the city
             G#m
Where you're living
      B                       E   F# G#m B
God I wish I knew what that's like
              E                F#
And he's the champagne in your headache
         G#m
That you can't shake
      B                       E   F# G#m B
God I wish I knew what that's like
           E              F#
But if you let me I could blend in
       G#m              B
To the background every weekend
E   F#                 G#m
   I'd be a fly on the wall
B
Safe from it all

[Chorus]
E       F#
  Find shelter
G#m    B           E  F# G#m B
  Take cover from me
E       F#     G#m    B            E      F# G#m B
  We're living on our middle class street

[Bridge]
E                      F#
  And don't you wonder why
                  G#m
It never rains anymore
                  B
You stay dry all year
E                      F#
  And don't you wonder why
                       G#m
This dosen't hurt like before
B
Ohhhhhhh!

[Chorus]
E       F#
  Find shelter
G#m    B           E  F# G#m B
  Take cover from me
E       F#     G#m    B            E      F# G#m B
  We're living on our middle class street

[Outro]
       E                F#
In the backseat of your first car
G#m
On my first time
      B                         E      F# G#m B
I bet he won't know what that's like
           E                  F#
Where the street lights never light up
             G#m
That's where we'd go
      B
I bet he won't know what that's like
