Em
melody maker
why did she
                          D
take my heart up to the skies
          C
only to break me
          Em
the world it
it keeps spinning
but I'm
I'm not with it
          D
I'm all alone
           C
oh melody maker
will you
Em
send me a line
or make me
some of your time
               D
so that I can sing
                      C
and land with these broken wings

Chorus:
            Am    Em
and if you need me
                 D
remember not to call
               Am     Em
and did you deceive me
                            Bm
with your back against the wall?
              Am     Em
and do you believe me?
               D
all I have is love
               Am
why did you deceive me? ha
Em                         Bm
just another brick in the wall
     Am
yeah yeah

Too young to remember and
Too hard to forget you know I live my life
On the end of your cigarette
The past is gone
But let's not forget you had me caught
Down the sky before you let me in
You never really let me in

Chorus:
So next time you need me
Remember not to call
And did you deceive me
With your back against the wall
And do you believe me
All I have is love for you
Why did you deceive me? Ha!
Just, another brick in the wall
