          Gm  F Gm
I know a spell
                     C  A# F
That would you make well
F#dim        Gm             F         D#
Write about love, it could be in any tense,
        D         Gm  F Gm
but it must make sense

I know a trick
Forget that you are sick
Write about love
It could be in any form
Hand it to me in the morning

Chorus:
   A#                               G#
I hate my job, I'm working way too much
                 F
(every day I'm stuck in an office)
   A#                                     C#
At one o'clock, I take my lunch up on the roof
            F
(up on the roof)
D#            C#                G#    D#     F
The city's spread below, I'll write about a man
          G#      D#        F
He's intellectual and he's hot, but he understands

The seconds move on (if you watch the clock)
And the sky grows dull (if you’re looking up)
But the girls move from
thrill to thrill on the tightrope walk
(On the tightrope walk)

Chorus

I know a way (so you know the way)
Get on your skinny knees and pray (maybe not today)
You’ve got to see the dream through
the windows and the trees of your living room
(of your living room)
You’ve got to see the dream through
the windows and the trees of your living room
