LIFETIME PILING UP Talking Heads |:Am | G:| I have tried marijuana I get nervous any time There will come a knockin' at the door Why is everybody makin' eyes at me ? I don't want to know Excuse and pardon me Stay for a while Maybe we'll never meet again Am G I can see my lifetime piling up Am G I can see the days turn into nights Am G I can see the people on the street Am Open those windows up G - A hundred floors below me Am G Pilin' those houses up Am G Pilin' them higher, higher, higher Am G I can feel them swayin' back and forth Am Building it higher, higher G - This tower's learning over |:Am | G:| I got bad coordination Stuck a pencil in my eye I can hardly wait to get back home Why is everybody gettin' paranoid ? I's only havin' fun Scum bags and superstars Tell me your names I'll make a bet, you're both the same Am G I can see my lifetime pilin' up Am G Reaching from my bedroom to the stars Am G I can see the house where I was born Am G When I was growin' up... they say that Am G I could never keep my trousers up Am G I remember days and crazy nights Am G Are there any pirates on this ship ? Am G And if they sober up - they have us Home by morning |:Em :| F Cry, cry, cry Am It's just you and I - Em Like an automobile Am with no one at the wheel F Spinning out of control Am We're all over the road Em In our sexy machine All the passengers scream Scream, scream ! |:Am |G :| I can see my lifetime pilin' up I can see it smashin' into yours It was not as accident at all Open those windows up - I hear you laughin' Goin' from the bottom to the top Maybe I'm holding on too tight And now I'm foldin' up I got a funny feeling Pilin' them houses up Pilin' them higher, higher, higher Building that highway to the stars Turning the music up - Hey! I got a winning number (For personal use only.
