Em    A     G     B7


[Verse]
Em           A
Hiding faces turning pages
G                   B7
Still they read and read
Em             A
Double deckers full of smokers
G                  B7
Look who's gone to seed


[Chorus]
         A
Well the sun's getting higher
A
Think I'll take a flyer
    C#m
The thought of it's causing me pain
C         G        B7
Oh, oh-oh-oh Shiny Cage


[Verse]
Em            A
Talk a walk under the subway
G                 B7
See an old school chum
Em              A
Window shopping for a short while
G                    B7
Then we'll have some fun


[Chorus]
         A
Well the shops closing early
A
Everywhere's deserted
C#m
Hello and down comes the rain
C         G        B7
Oh, oh-oh-oh Shiny Cage


[Bridge] 6/8 tempo
C7
We'll do the town tonight

I know some girls then stop off


[Bridge]  4/4 tempo
      Em     A
For a bite
G             A      Em                 A
No strings to tie my kite
                     (couldn't get much higher)
G             A      Em               A
No strings to tie my kite
                     (higher than the spires)
G
Well living for the night
   F#7            B7
No way to spend a life


[Solo]
Em  A  G  B7
Em  A  G  B7


[Chorus]
A
Shops closing early
A
Everywhere's deserted
C#m
Hello and down comes the rain
C         G        B7
Oh, oh-oh-oh Shiny Cage


[Bridge] 6/8 tempo
C7
We'll do the town tonight


[Verse] 4/4 tempo
Em           A
Hiding faces turning pages
G                   B7
Still they read and read
Em             A
Double deckers full of smokers
G                  B7
Look who's gone to seed


[Chorus]
         A
Well the sun's getting higher

Think I'll take a flyer
    C#m
The thought of it's causing me pain
C         G        B7
Oh, oh-oh-oh Shiny Cage
