[Intro]
Am F C Em7 Am G F
[Verse]
Am F C Em7
I part the faded curtain in my small urban bedsit
Am G F
And look out on another empty day
Am F C Em7
A lone car rolls past with its lights showing nothing
Am G F
Til the hungry city draws it away
[Verse]
Am F C Em7
On the corner is a small park, where no one’s been for years
Am G F
Where broken bottles lay themselves to rest
Am F C Em7
There’s an old faded sign there, hanging from the wall
Am G F
Welcoming the city’s every guest
[Chorus]
G Am
Are these walls getting closer?
G Am
Will there still be room to move, room to breathe?
G Am
Are these walls getting closer?
G F
Will there still be time to leave
[Verse]
Am F C Em7
Another piece of paper is washed up in the rain
Am G F
Sharing the gutter with an old can
Am F C Em7
The streets are deserted on this cold Sunday morning
Am G F
Except for one slow moving old man
[Verse]
Am F C Em7
Who is dragging his dog along the cracked cobbled pavement
Am G F
His tattered raincoat pulled up around his head
Am F C Em7
Around all the buildings have barred, broken windows
Am G F
And inside their grey world is dead
[Chorus]
G Am
Are these walls getting closer?
G Am
Will there still be room to move, room to breathe?
G Am
Are these walls getting closer?
G F
Will there still be time to leave
[Bridge]
F G C F G C
Looking out beyond the city, I see the golden fields, where all the life has gone
F G C F E7
Looking out beyond the city, behind these grey walls, I look up to see the sun
[Instrumental Verse]
