E B F#m
There's a light on the nineteenth floor tonight
E B F#m
They don't know there won't even be a fight
E B F#m B
But they'll find out I've tired of all the things I've called my own
E B F#m
When they go to the final mat alone
B F#m
Don't even waste the man hours on us
A B A
We are finding no solution
F#m B F#m A
Call all the boys in from the fighting fronts
B A
We have lost the revolution
F#m G F#m B
None of the soaring flight we dreamed is any closer to perfection
E F#m A B A B
And all I want is one to fold my arms around, we are throwing the election
There's a light on in Joanie's room tonight
And she won't sleep 'till summer's going right
She thought she saw something that would lead her to believe
I'm the kind who'll accept the strokes and leave
Make me an offer, I don't waste them now
We have no more fixed intentions
Give all the faithful long-deserved rests
We've abandoned our dissentions
You could be one of someone's hundreds who'll be chosen for affection
And all I want is one to fold my arms around, we are throwing the election
E B F#m A B E
I've got a feeling it's all rigged
F#m B E F#m B
I've got a feeling it ended a long time ago, nobody tells me
F#m A B
I've got a feeling it's over now
F#m A B
I've got a feeling it's over now
F#m B F#m B
I've got a feeling the votes are in and I got none
A B
And all I want is one
E B F#m E B
