Thru the wire (Leningrad Cowboys)
INTRO
| G | Em | G | Em | Am7 D | Am7 D | Am7 D | C |
VERSE 1
[G] Funny how the cities [Em] always look the same.
[G] Holes in your shoes and caught a [Em]tune up, up against the way.
A[Am7]nother cheap ho[D]tel, some [Am7]girl's shoes on the [D]floor,
just [Am7]once more [D]hopin',
[C] gonne make it singin', [Cadd9]hopin', [C]singin' thru the [G]wire.
CHORUS
It's been a [Em]long time, it's been a long time, honey,
[G] and your dreams they get [Em]old.
[Am7]This might not [D]be the greatest [Am7]story ever [D]told,
just [Am7]one more [D]heart, [C]one more heart comin' in from the [G]cold.[Em]
VERSE 2
Clock in the market square, chiming twelve o'clock.
Somewhere 'cross the border another car gets stopped.
These uniforms asking questions, papers getting read,
I'm feelin' half dead thru the wire.
CHORUS
BRIDGE / SOLO
| G | Em | G | Em |
[Am7] Girls goin' [D]out tonight, while [Am7]I was playin' [D]soft.
My [Am7]body's feelin' [D]broken, and I [C]want to turn it off,
but I just keep [Cadd9]prayin' and playin' and singin' thru the [G]wire.
CHORUS
SOLO
| G | Em | G | Em | Am7 D | Am7 D | Am7 D |
[C]Waitin', I just keep playin' and singin' thru the [G]wire.
CHORUS
Thru the [G]wire.
