Someones Looking At You Chords

(ver. 1)
Boomtown Rats
Intro:
(acoustic)
E       B
E       B
        Na na nana nana na (X3)
(electric)
E       B
        Na na nana nana na (X2)


     E                                          B
On a night like this I deserve to get kissed at least once or twice.
         E                                               B
You come over to my place screaming blue murder, needing someplace to hide.
        E                                                      B
Well, I wish you'd keep quiet.  Imaginations run riot in these paper-thin walls.
             E                                                             B    
And when the place comes ablaze with a thousand dropped names I don't know who to call.
            Eb
But I got a friend over there in the government block
       E
And he knows the situation and he's taking stock.
             F#
I think I'll call him up now
      F#7
Gonna put him on the spot, tonight.


(Repeat electric Intro)

            E                                                          B
They saw me there in the square when I was shooting my mouth off about saving some fish.
           E                                                 B
Now, could that be construed as some radicals' views or some liberals' wish.
         Eb
Oh it's so hot outside and the air is so sweet.
             E
And when the pressure drop is heavy I don't wanna hear you speak.
              F#
You know most killing is committed at 90 degrees.
          F#7
When it's too hot to breathe and it's too hot to think.


Chorus:
               B                              E F#
There's always someone looking at you.  Uh oh uh oh
      B                              E F#
S-s-s-someone looking at you.  Uh oh uh oh
        B                             E F#
They're always looking at you.  Uh oh uh oh


Refrain:
A
Tonight
                         E
They're looking at you tonight.

A E x2
(organ solo)

Eb E F# F#7 E (hold)
(guitar solo)

        B
And I wish you'd stop whispering.
E                       B
 Don't flatter yourself, nobody's listening.
         E                                  B
But it makes me nervous, those things you say.
                E                                                      B
You may as well shout it from the roof, scream it from your lungs, and spit it from your mouth.
            E
Hey, if you fall on deaf ears to indulge all your fears
          F#
There's a spy in the sky.  There's a noise on the wire.
          F#7
There's a tap on the line.  And for every paranoid's desire.


Repeat Chorus:


Coda:
E       F#     B
They're always looking at ya.
E       F#     B        (x6) 
They're always looking at ya.

E (hold)
On a night like this I deserve to get kissed at least once or twice.
