Song From the 16th Floor By Paul Kelly. Note (This song is played with a capo whacked on the fifth fret. I pretty damn sure that's where the rhythm part comes from anyway. So i'll write this out as if the capo is on at the 5th fret, thus all chords are relative to the capo position.) Intro G C Am F Verse 1 G C Some things frying G C On the floor below G C I'm leaning out G F My window Verse 2 same pattern The sky's on fire The streets all a glow Somebody's singing To the radio Chorus 1 G C I would jump from the 16th floor Am F If only to get next to you G C Put my head in a lion's jaw Am F If i only could get next to you Verse 3 I'm walking the floor I'm climbing the walls I wake up from dreaming That's when I fall Chorus 2 I would jump from the 16th floor If only to get next to you Put my head in a lion's jaw If I only could get next to you Take a ride on a wrecking ball Yes I would darling Bridge 1 Dm Am G Everyday I speak your name Dm Am G If I had wings I would fly Dm Am F Cause your'e not here to hold me Chorus 3 G C Am F I would jump from the 16th floor Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh Put my head in a lion's jaw " " " I would walk on burning coal " " " I'd sell my only soul " " " Bridge 2 (as before) Everyday I speak your name If I had wings I'd fly Cause your'e not here to hold me Chorus 4 just repeat chorus 3 and fade out. Final Note To play this song without the capo here are the open chords for that key. Instead of G use C C use F Am use Dm F use Bb Dm use Gm The End.
