[Intro]
G Em G Cadd9
G Am7 D
[Verse 1]
G Em7 G
We returned to that five-room flat
Cadd9 G Am7 D
Now it was empty and this the last time
G
There were blinking pictures
Em G
Of how we'd sit and chat
Cadd9 G
Some of them scattered
Am7 D
Others shattered in my mind
[Chorus]
F C G F
It was always three flights up
C G Em7 D
Cathedral bells kept time
[Verse 2]
G Em G
In the winter, a-chatterin' cold
Cadd9 G Am7 D
While the building shook like ragweed in the wind
G Em
Stories from the heat pipes
G
We were told
Cadd9 G
But now they only leave me
Am7 D
With a half-enchanted grin
[Chorus]
F C G F
It was always three flights up
C G
Cathedral bells kept time
[Bridge]
G7 Cadd9 G
Bicycles squeezed down alley ways into view
Cadd9
And towels warmed on oven doors
Cadd9
To not freeze
G Am7 D
Was the only thing to do
[Verse 3]
G D Em G
And I wonder if we kept to the fair warning
Cadd9 G
'Cause I can see it in the flowers
Am7 D
Dyin' on the windowsill
G Em G Cadd9 G
I know we must be out by tomorrow mornin'
Am7 D F
But am I going 'gainst my will
[Chorus]
F C G F
It was always three flights up
C G
Cathedral bells kept time
[Interlude]
Em7 G Cadd9 G
Am7 D G Em7
G Cadd9 G Am7
Dm7 F C G F C G
[Bridge]
G Cadd9 G
Bicycles squeezed down alley ways into view
Cadd9
And towels warmed on oven doors
Cadd9
To not freeze
G Am7 D
Was the only thing to do
[Verse 4]
G D Em G
And I wonder if we kept to the fair warning
Cadd9 G
'Cause I can see it in the flowers
Am7 D
Dyin' on the windowsill
G Em G Cadd9 G
I know we must be out by tomorrow mornin'
Am7 D F
But am I going 'gainst my will
[Chorus]
F C G
It was always three flights up
Cadd9 G
Cathedral bells kept time
F C G
It was always three flights up
Cadd9 G
Cathedral bells kept time
