VERSE 1:
       Am7                             Bm/A
If you see something that looks like a star,
         Am7                    Bm/A
And it's shooting up out of the ground.
         Am7                          Bm/A   Am7 Bm/A                                                   
And your head is spinning from a loud guitar,
         Am7                       Bm/A
And you just can't escape from the sound.
      Am7                             Bm/A
Don't worry too much, it'll happen to you,
Am7                                 Bm/A  Am7 Bm/A
We were children once, playing with toys.


BRIDGE 1:
        A                            E                    
And the thing that you're hearing is only the sound of,
    G            D           C
The low spark of high-heeled boys.


INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE 1:
|D7    |G   D7|G   D7|


CHORUS 1:
                                D        A7
The percentage you're paying is too high a price,
                           D        A7
While you're living beyond all your means.
                                        D     A7
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car,
         C/G         G            D        
From the profit he's made on your dreams.
    C/G       G              D       C/G      G
But today you just read that the man was shot dead,
     C/G      G               D     C/G   G            
By a gun that didn't make any noise.


BRIDGE 2:
       A                      E
But it wasn't the bullet that laid him to rest, was,
    G            D           C                  
The low spark of high-heeled boys. (High-heeled boys)

VERSE 3:
       Am7                  Bm/A
If you had just a minute to breathe,
         Am7                   Bm/A
And they granted you one final wish.
          Am7                             Bm/A   Am7 Bm/A
Would you ask for something like another chance?
   Am7                  Bm/A
Or something sim'lar as this?
Am7                                   Bm/A
Don't worry too much, it'll happen to you,
Am7                         Bm/A  Am7 Bm/A
As sure as your sorrows are joys.


BRIDGE 3:

The low spark of high-heeled boys.

A7                               D          A7
The percentage you're paying is too high a price,
                    D               A7
While you're living beyond all your means.
                                 D        A7
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car,
         C/G         G            D        
From the profit he's made on your dreams.
    C/G            G          C/G        G           
But today you just read that the man was shot dead,
     C/G             G        D     C/G   G            
By a gun that didn't make any noise.


BRIDGE 4:
       A                      E
But it wasn't the bullet that laid him to rest, was,

The low spark of high-heeled boys. ('heeled boys)


VERSE 4
           Am7                  Bm/A
If I gave you everything that I owned,
    Am7                  Bm/A
And asked for nothing in return.
          Am7                               Bm/A  Am7 Bm/A             
Would you do the same for me as I would for you?
   Am7           Bm/A                                  
Or take me for a ride,
    Am7                                  Bm/A        
And strip me of everything, including my pride.
Am7                                 Bm/A     Am7 Bm/A
But spirit is something that no one destroys.


BRIDGE 5:
        A                         E      
And the sound that I'm hearing is only the sound, of,
    G            D           C
The low spark of high-heeled boys. (heeled boys)
