G                C
Teardrop windows crying in the sky
      Am                      D7
He is all alone and wondering why
G               C
Ivory white but feeling kinda blue
               Am                        D7
'Cause there's no one there to share the view

[Chorus]
        C        C/B  Am
There's too many vacancies
          C          G     D
He's been feeling oh so empty
             C        C/B      D7
And when the sun sets over the sound
                G
He just goes to sleep

[Verse]
G                       C
Built and boasts as the tallest on the coast
       Am                 D7
He was once a city's only toast
   G                   C 
In old postcards was positioned as the star
       Am                     D7
He was looked up to with fond regard

[Chorus]
       C        C/B   Am
But in nineteen-sixty-two
    C               G     D
the needle made its big debut
    C    C/B      D7                G
And everybody forgot what it outgrew

[Bridge]
   Em                                C                 G
He wonders where the workers are who once filled every floor
        Em        Em/D#       C             D D/C D/B D/A
And the elevators operate but don't much anymore
   D D/C D/B D/A
Anymore
   D D/C D/B D/A
Anymore

[Verse]
G                C
Teardrop windows crying in the sky
        Am                            D7
How the years have quickly passed him by
G                      C
Gleaming white against deepest baby blue
      Am                      D7
He is lonely just like me and you

[Chorus]
        C        C/B  Am
There's too many vacancies
          C          G     D
He's been feeling oh so empty
             C        C/B      D7
And when the sun sets over the sound
                G
He just goes to sleep

        C        C/B  Am
There's too many vacancies
          C          G     D
He's been feeling oh so empty
             C          C/B          D7
And when the maids they turn out the lights
                G
He just goes to sleep
