Verse 1:
Dm         C                                 Am             Bb
I heard a glass shatter on the wall in the apartment above mine
Dm          C                  Am   Bb
At first I thought that I was dreamin'
Dm                   C
But then I heard the voice of a girl
         Am                    Bb
And it sounded like she'd been cryin'
Dm           C              Am  Bb
Now I'm too worried to be sleepin'
 
Pre-Chorus:
Dm                      C
So I took the elevator to the second floor
Am                               Bb
Walked down the hall and then I knocked upon her door
Dm            C                                       Am   Bb
She opened up and I asked about the things I've been hearing
 
Chorus:
           Dm                     C
She said, "I think your ears are playing tricks on you"
 Am                       Bb
Sweater zipped up to her chin
Dm                   C
"Thanks for caring, sir, that's nice of you
        Am             Bb
But I have to go back in
Dm                        C
Wish I could tell you about the noise
        Am            Bb
But I didn't hear a thing"
           Dm                       C
She said, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                    Am                           Bb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
           Dm                      C
She said, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                    Am                           Bb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
 
Verse 2:
Dm              C
So I was layin' on the floor of my room
        Am           Bb
Cold concrete on my back
Dm           C                 Am  Bb
No, I just couldn't shake the feeling
Dm                C                             Am            Bb
I didn't want to intrude because I knew that I didn't have all the facts
Dm             C                      Am   Bb
But I couldn't bear the thought of leavin' her
 
Pre-Chorus:
Dm                      C
So I took the elevator to the second floor
Am                               Bb
Walked down the hall and then I knocked upon her door
Dm             C                                      Am  Bb
She opened up and I asked about the things I've been hearing
 
Chorus:
           Dm                     C
She said, "I think your ears are playing tricks on you"
Am                        Bb
Sweater zipped up to her chin
Dm                   C
"Thanks for caring, sir, that's nice of you
        Am         Bb
But I have to go back in
Dm                      C
Wish I could tell you about the noise
        Am           Bb
But I didn't hear a thing"
           Dm                      C
She said, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                     Am                         Bb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
           Dm                      C
She said, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                    Am                          Bb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
 
Verse 3:
        Dm                 C
Aim my boom box at the roof, I'm playing "lean on me"
   Am                                Bb
Just so that she knows that she can lean on me
     Dm                                   C              Am Bb
And when she hears the words, I hope she knows she'll be okay
        Dm                       C
Aim my boom box at the roof, I'm playing "lean on me"
     Am                   Bb
Just so that she knows that she can lean on me
     Dm                        C                   Am   Bb
And when she hears the words, I know exactly what I'll say
Dm              C
Promise I'm not playing tricks on you
 Am                   Bb
You're always welcome to come in
Dm                   C
You could stay here for an hour or two
       Am        Bb
If you ever need a friend
 
Chorus 2:
Dm        C                         Am              Bb
We can talk about the noise, when you're ready, but till then
        Dm                      C
I say, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                     Am                    Bb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
        Dm                         C
I say, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
                     Am                         Bb
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
