Verse 1:
C                            G
  Build me up, don't get me down
             Dm
Weather the storm
       F
Well, life goes on
C                               G
  Feelings ebb and flow by the hour
                  Dm
You're up in the clouds
              F
And then you sink like a stone

Chorus:
           F
So do you feed yourself with pills?
        C
Oh, to deaden your ills?
                F
Or are you only one love short
    Am
Of happiness
          F
And in a picture on the wall
    C
No glimmer of yourself at all
        Dm                F
You've left yourself far away

Verse 2:
C                            G
  Build me up, don't mop my brow
             Dm
Weather the storm? No
        F
Because life goes on
C                              G
  And it's my only hope right now
                Dm
To soar like a bird
            F
And not to sink like a stone

Chorus:
           F
So do you feed yourself with pills?
        C
Oh, to deaden your ills?
                F
Or are you only one love short
    Am
Of happiness
          F
And in a picture on the wall
    C
No glimmer of yourself at all
        Dm                 F
You've left yourself far away

Interlude: G

Solo (x2): C  G  Dm  F

Chorus:
               F
Oh, so do you feed yourself with pills?
    C
To cure you of your ills
                F
Or are you only one love short
        Am
Of the happy days to come
          F
And in a picture on the wall
           C
You can't see your face at all
     Dm
So untie yourself
         F
Because that's all you've got to do


           F
And I can grow a pair of wings
           C
And I can take off flying

There'll be no crying
F                            Am
Up in the air, looking back down
                           F
And let me tell you, if I talk about gloom
            C
I don't get out of feeling down
    Dm
It strips you of yourself
        Bb                                C
and it splits you from the self that you know... Questo arrangiamento è l'interpretazione personale di chi lo ha inviato, condivisa per studio privato, didattica e uso non commerciale.
