“Walls of Glass”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1: Em-C-G-D)
Em C G D
Cold coffee on a desk, suit and ties, no rest
Em C G D
Paper mountains rise, in the corporate wilderness
Em C G D
Chasing dreams of wealth, losing touch with self
Em C G D
In the mirror’s face, a stranger in my place
(Chorus: G-D-Am-C)
G D Am C
Break through the walls of glass, make this moment last
G D Am C
The world’s spinning fast, we won’t be outcast
(Verse 2: Em-C-G-D)
Em C G D
In the concrete jungle, spirits tangle
Em C G D
Skyscrapers high, touch the empty sky
Em C G D
We won’t falter, in this alter
Em C G D
Of material gain, fueling our disdain
(Chorus: G-D-Am-C)
G D Am C
Break through the walls of glass, make this moment last
G D Am C
The world’s spinning fast, we won’t be outcast
(Outro: G-D-Am-C)
G D Am C
So here we stand, guitar in hand
G D Am C
Voices loud, above the crowd
G D Am C
Shocked Businessman, with a rock ‘n’ roll plan
G D Am C
Breaking through the walls of glass, at last
