  			Intro: G 

G                                   F 
Nine years old and climbing out the house 

Through a song played on piano 
                C     G 
By my neighbors Les and Ray 

G                            F 
I put my head up against the wall 
                            C      G 
To be closer to the music that they played 

G 
You were my oxygen 
                                     F 
The thing that made me think I could escape 
                             C     G 
This is a thank you song for Les and Ray 

(G-F-C-G) 
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo... 

G 
You were my batteries 
                                      F 
The things that made me think I could escape 

Here's a song for Les and 
                   C     G 
Here's a song for Les and Ray
