C
G
D
you but I don't think I could
G
C
D
Talking to you is just like talking to wood
C
D
C
D
But I don't mind, my life is mine,
C
D
though you've gotten me for some time.
C
D
G
yes my name's on your file.
A legal document you'd
C
D
say with a smile.
C
D
C
That's just fine, it's only time,
D
C

so I'll just sit and watch you climb
C
G

D
G
Yes, I'll watch you climb to the floor,
the earth floor

C
G

Where they throw you to the lions
D
G
and then show you the door
Em
C
G
Cause it's cold up there on the
Am
New
York sky
D
G
Em
And the building's made of tin
F
And you've got to watch
for the enemies within
C
G
For me it's easy
C
D
Cause you don't mean a thing
C
D
But you can't make it sing
C
D
C
D
C
D
You don't scare me, I've learned to be detached from little men like you,
C
D
G
who just won't understand how a man
C
D
like you can hold their lives in your hands.
C
D
C
So take your time, make up your mind,
D
C

I hope you make it right and fine

Cause there's no room for friendship on the floor,
the earth floor
Em
C
G
And the ones that you crushed on your
D
G
D
slope climb up first and round your door
Em
C
When you're on the
Am
D
heart of many a one
G
Em
Who would have been your friend
F
And the best cannot bow,
C
G
C
D
G
don't want to bend
C

Ambition's easy, but the price is too high
D
G
C
The power that you seek will turn out a lie
D
C

When your time comes, just do your sums,
C

and count the enemies you've made.

Oh, look, my friend,
D
G

you've marked the 40th floor,

40th floor,
a number which I understand was about
That's a certain record company executive,
a record company executive.
I'm not going to tell you who it was because I
couldn't stand another lawsuit, but that
might just give you a little insight
into what the song was all about.
I was asking
Leslie before we started tonight if
there were any tours in the offing, but
she said no,
busy recording another album.
When will it be out,
Leslie?
When it's recorded.
When it's recorded.
A good answer, a good answer.
I think we better get on to the next number,
it's called the surf.
Wie hat dir der Song gefallen?
