Tom : G
[Verso 1]
Em D Bm C
I heard a glass shatter on the wall in the apartment above mine
Em D Bm C
At first I thought that I was dreamin'
Em D
But then I heard the voice of a girl
Bm C
And it sounded like she'd been cryin'
Em D Bm C
Now I'm too worried to be sleepin'
[Ponte]
[Refrão]
Em D
So I took the elevator to the second floor
Bm C
Walked down the hall and then I knocked upon her door
Em D Bm C
She opened up and I asked about the things I've been hearing
[Refrão 2x]
Em D
She said, "I think your ears are playing tricks on you"
Bm C
Sweater zipped up to her chin
Em D
"Thanks for caring, sir, that's nice of you
[Próxima Parte]
Bm C
But I have to go back in
Em D
Wish I could tell you about the noise
Bm C
But I didn't hear a thing"
Em D
She said, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
Bm C
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
[Verso 2]
Em D
So I was layin' on the floor of my room
Bm C
Cold concrete on my back
Em D Bm C
No, I just couldn't shake the feeling
Em D Bm C
I didn't want to intrude because I knew that I didn't have all the facts
Em D Bm C
But I couldn't bear the thought of leavin' her
[Ponte]
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
Bm C
But I have to go back in
Em D
Wish I could tell you about the noise
Bm C
But I didn't hear a thing"
Em D
She said, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
Bm C
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
[Verso 3]
Em D
Aim my boom box at the roof, I'm playing "lean on me"
Bm C
Just so that she knows that she can lean on me
Em D Bm C
And when she hears the words, I hope she knows she'll be okay
Em D
Aim my boom box at the roof, I'm playing "lean on me"
Bm C
Just so that she knows that she can lean on me
Em D Bm C
And when she hears the words, I know exactly what I'll say
Em D
Promise I'm not playing tricks on you
Bm C
You're always welcome to come in
Em D
You could stay here for an hour or two
Bm C
If you ever need a friend
[Refrão 2 2x]
Em D Bm C
We can talk about the noise, when you're ready, but till then
Em D
I say, "It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
Bm C
Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind"
