Intro: C# G# F#  

F#  
I wake up every morning 
I hear your feet on the stairs 
              C#           C#7 
Youre in the next apartment 
                         G# 
I hear you singing over there 

C# G# F# 

This groove is out of fashion 
These beats are 20 years old 
            C#           C#7 
I saw you lend a hand to 
                             G# 
The ones out standing in the cold 

C# G# F# 

Strange Overtones in the music you are playing 
           C#            
Ill harmonise 
      C#7 
It is strong and you are tough 
       G# 
But a heart is not enough 

C# G# F# 

Put on your socks and mittens 
Its getting colder tonight 
            C#          C#7 
A snowball in my kitchen 
                            G# 
I watched it melt before my eyes 

C# G# F# 

Your song still needs a Chorus 
I know youll figure it out 
           C#           C#7 
The rising of the verses 
                             G# 
A change of key will let you out 

C# G# F# 

Strange overtones though theyre slightly out of fashion 
           C# 
Ill harmonise 
           C#7 
I see the music in your face 
           G# 
That your words cannot explain 

C# G# F# 

Strange Overtones in the music you are playing 
          C# 
Were not alone 
       C#7 
It is strong and you are tough 
        G# 
But a heart is not enough
