There was a crack in your smile the day you were born
C                 G                        Am      G  F
You're out on the pull and it's making you yawn

Good samaritans never play their part

Come round, let me put my hands around your heart

Bridge:
C                       G               Am      G  F
Standing in the borough markets selling straws
C           G                Am      G  F
People just stare at you and gawp
C                        G
You'd like to say you're wasted,
         Am       G   F                    Dm          Fsus
but it's not the alcohol that's making you feel like a flat spare wheel

Livewire, your life is in the fire
C       G             Am

We got everything to live for

Don't kick it all the time

Helicopters hover over the street
C                       G                    Am         G   F
There's always somebody else you're dying to meet
C                         G
And you're always getting older
           Am               G   F            Dm   Fsus
That's the deepest thought you can commit to paper

As the nights get later

Livewire, your life is in the fire
C       G             Am
