[Intro]
B C#
[Verse 1]
B
They say everything that rises
C#
Will be brought down
B
And anyone who's anybody
C#
Is getting out of town
B
The highheels on the long weekend
C#
Clatter in the street below
B
Somebody got pinned again
C#
Underneath my window
B
The crowd roars on the wing
C#
And I call out your name
B
They're keepin' score on the radio
C#
But it all sounds the same (home away game)
[Chorus]
D G
Ya never build too high
C
In January rain
D G
Ya never build too high
C
In January rain
B C#
B C#
[Verse 2]
B
The punters on the platform
C#
Stagger throughout the yellow light
B
Force the door and slash the seats
C#
Cause we're all goin' home tonight
B
Up and down the nature strip
C#
The Sunday drinkers ride
B
While faith is flowin' down the Esplanade
C#
Drip tray and lemon tide
B
They say it's perfect one day
C#
That's when it's raining again
B
Crouched upon the ocean
C#
Is the city that I live in
[Chorus]
D G
Ya never build too high
C
In January rain
D G
Ya never build too high
C
In January rain
B C#
B C#
[Verse 3]
B
They say everything that rises
C#
Will be brought down
B
And Anyone who's anybody
C#
Has already left town
B
The highheels on the long weekend
C#
They clatter in the street below
B
And somebody got pinned again
C#
Underneath my window
B
And it's perfect one day
C#
That's when it's raining again
B
Crouched upon the ocean
C#
Is the city that I live in
[Chorus]
D G
Ya never build too high
C
In January rain
D G
Ya never build too high
C
In January rain
D G
Ya never build too high
C B
In January rain
