		I'm not a rat to be spat on locked up in this room
		D                     A                 E
		Those bars that look towards the sun at night look towards the moon
		D*                 A                E
		Everyday the swallows play in the clouds of love
		D*                Hm                  H
		Make me wish that I had wings take me high above

		C            G          D             A
Chorus:		And I looked high and saw the empty sky
		C           G            D    A
		If I could only, I could only fly
		G              D/F#            A
		I'd drift with them in endless space
		G          D/F#            E
		But no man flies from this place

		At night I lay upon my bench and stare towards the stars
		The cold night air comes creeping in and home seems oh so far
		If only I could swing upon those twinkling dots above
		I'd look down from the heavens upon the ones I love

		Chorus

		Hey the lucky locket hangs around your precious neck
		Some luck I ever got with you and I wouldn't like to bet
		That sooner or later you'll own just one half of this land
		By shining your eyes on the wealth of every man
		Just send up my love ain't seen nothing but tears
		Now I've got myself in this room for years
		I don't see no one, I never see anyone
