The Ceiling

• E

 
E 
Wood burning up on the hill 
E 
Cedar drawer full of pills 
A                                     E 
And it's quiet, like snow through the trees 
       B                    A                     E   
Well I did what I did and I didn't mean anything 


E 
Where you come from and where you go 
E 
Who you talk to and who you know 
            A                  E 
When you're lying in fields of green 
       B                    A                     E 
Well I did what I did and I didn't mean anything 



    C#m           A          E 
The sun rise, the drive, the morning 
    C#m               A                E 
The smoke stacks, the bold hats, still learning 
      C#m                  A                      E 
And I don't know how I got this far down with the ceiling 
      C#m                  A                      E 
And I don't know how I got this far down with the ceiling 


Bridge
 
B, B, A                     E                     A        E 
      Oh, her eyes are wide open right out of her head... 
B, B, A                      E                          A       E 
      And she's cleared of a crime that she could not commit (no-oh) 
        B                      A                    E 
Well, I did what I did and I'd do it all over again 

(Intro riff: E E A E) 

V2:
 
E 
I remember everything,  
E                                    A                     E 
little girl learning to sing because she's crying all over me 
      B                    A              E 
But I did what I did and I didn't mean anything 


Chorus: 
    C#m           A          E 
The sun rise, the drive, the morning 
    C#m               A                E 
The smoke stacks, the bold hats, still learning 
      C#m                  A                      E 
And I don't know how I got this far down with the ceiling 
      C#m                  A                      E 
And I don't know how I got this far down with the ceiling 


Bridge:
 
B, B, A                     E                     A        E 
      Oh, her eyes are wide open right out of her head... 
B, B, A                      E                          A        E 
      And she's cleared of a crime that she could not commit (no-oh) 
        B                      A                    E (let ring) 
Well, I did what I did and I'd do it all over again 


Outro:
 
E                A 
We, we should be easy 
A            B 
We should be easy 
          A 
We should be 
E                A 
We, we should be easy 
A            B 
We should be easy 
          A 
We should be 
E                A 
We, we should be easy 
A            B 
We should be easy 
          A 
We should be
