To a passage in time,
To a cigarette burn.
C
To the book that I read,
To the sentence I learn.

Up and down, going round,
F#m D
Going round 'till we drown again.
[Verse 2]
Am
I'm gonna set myself up,
Em
I'm gonna up to the top,
Up to the top, to the top.
G
I'm going down to the ground,
Bm
Going round, till we drown,
F#m D
Going round till we drown again.
[Chorus]
F A
Factory, imitation of life.
F A
Factory, we all go out to lunch.
Dm Bb C Am
A certain rati- o we know,
Bb Gm Am
Has left us unaware.
Dm Bb C Am
Someone else has taken leave,
Bb Gm Am
Someone who did care.
Dm Bb C Am
Ele- vators just don't crash,
Bb Gm Am
The answer lies within.
Dm Bb C Am
Ele- vators, ele- vators,
Bb Gm Am
Answer lies within.
[Verse 3]
Am
To the glittering prize,
Em
To the fool in the sky.
I've got a jewel in my eye.

I'm going up, going down,
Bm
Going round, till we drown,
F#m D
Going round till we drown again.
[Verse 4]
Am
To the centre of the man,
Em
Because he had a plan.
He had a plan to escape,
G
But now we've got it on tape.
Bm
Going up, coming down,
Going around
F#m D
Going round till we drown again.
[Chorus]
F A
Factory, imitation of life.
F A
Factory, we all go out to lunch.
Dm Bb C Am
A certain rati- o we know,

Someone who did care.
Dm Bb C Am
Ele- vators just don't crash,
