[Intro]

[Verse]
B                                             
■ Well my friends are gone and my hair is grey
                           B             
I ache in the places where I used to play
    E                  B                    
And I'm crazy for love but I'm not coming on
         F#             E        
I'm just paying my rent every day
                B      
Oh in the Tower of Song
E B                                              
■ I said to Hank Williams: how lonely does it get
              B                  
Hank Williams hasn't answered yet
      E                     B         
But I hear him coughing all night long
F#                     E 
A hundred floors above me
                B   
In the Tower of Song
  B                                 
I was born like this I had no choice
  B                                       
I was born with the gift of a golden voice
E                                     B     
And twentyseven angels from the Great Beyond
F#                         E         
They tied me to this table right here
       B            
In the Tower of Song
   B                                                 
So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll
                    B7                         
I'm very sorry baby doesn't look like me at all
    E                                B              
I'm standing by the window where the light is strong
              F#                  
Ah they don't let a woman kill you
E          B            
Not in the Tower of Song

[Verse]
        B                                                         
Now you can say that I've grown bitter but of this you may be sure
                                    B                       
The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor
            E                                      B    
And there's a mighty judgement coming but I may be wrong
    F#                       E     
You see you hear these funny voices
       B            
In the Tower of Song


[Chorus]
G#                       F#             G#
■  I see you standing on the other side ■ 
                     G#m   F#     E   
I don't know how the river got so wide
                 B            
I loved you baby way back when
G#m                             F#                 G#m    
And all the bridges are burning that we might have crossed
              F#                  E           
But I feel so close to everything that we lost
                            F#   
We'll never have to lose it again
      B                                          B7  
Now I bid you farewell I don't know when I'll be back
B                 B7                                   
■ There moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track
E                                       B             
But you'll be hearing from me baby long after I'm gone
                 F#     E      
I'll be speaking to you sweetly
                     B             F# E B
