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