Fm/C
C Fm/C C C7 Fm/C C
Safe behind these windows and these parapets of stone
C Fm/C C C7 Fm/C C
Gazing at the people down below me
Em Am/E Em E7(no3rd) A/E F#m7b5 Em
All my life I watch them as I hide up here alone
Em Am/E Em E7(no3rd) Am/E Em
Hungry for the histories they show me
G7/D F/C C Dm/C C
All my life I memorize their faces
G7 F/C C Dm/C C
Knowing them as they will never know me
F C/E
All my life I wonder how it feels to pass a day
Dm7 Dm7
Not above them
Dm7/G Dm7/G
But part of them
C
And out there
Fmaj7 Gsus G
Living in
Csus2/E C/E
the sun

All I ask is one

aware
Dm7 Dm7/G
What I'd give

What I'd dare
Dm7 F/E F6 F/G C Fm/C C C7 Fm/C C Fm/C C C7 Fm/C
Just to live one day out there
F G/F F G/F F
Out there among the millers and the weavers and their wives
F G/F F Em7
Through the roofs and gables I can see them
G# A#/G# G# A#/G# G#
Ev'ry day they shout and scold and go about their lives
Fm7 Fm7
Heedless of the gift it is to be them
C/G Dm7
If I was in their skin
C/G A#7
I'd treasure ev'ry instant
D#
Out there
G#maj7 A#7sys A#7
Strolling by

the Seine

Taste a morning

out there
G#maj7 A#7sus A#7
Like ordinary
F#
men
B G#m7/C#
Who freely walk

about there
G#maj7 A#7sus A#7
Just one day
