E
First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect
Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect
C                            Am        F#m7
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
E
You get so dizzy even walkin' in a straight line

You say you want to spend the winter in Firenza
You're so afraid to catch a dose of influenza
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line

Chorus:
E
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
                    C Am F#m7
Canary in a coalmine

Now if I tell you that you suffer from delusions
You pay your analyst to reach the same conclusions
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line

Chorus

First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect
Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect
You live you life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line
