Half Mile (C) Hill, (C/B) eight years (C) old (C/B)
Standing on (C) top (C/B) with the world (C) below (C/B)
(F) Me and my dad
Talking (C) man to (C/B) man (C-C/B)
Suitcase (C) packed, (C/B) he was moving (C) out (C/B)

(F) And I have them still
Up on (C) Half Mile (C/B) Hill (C-C/B)
(Chorus)
You can see the (F) ball fields
Watch the cars go 'round the (C) courthouse (G/B)
See the (Am) sun go (G) down
Where the (F) street lamps glow
On those checkerboard roads
Wishing (C) I could (G/B) fly like a (Am) cut-string (G) kite
(F) Tapping on the floor of (G) heaven
(F) Is anybody (G) listening?
Half Mile (C) Hill, (C/B) seventeen (C-C/B)

Up on (C) Half Mile (C/B) Hill (C-C/B)
Chorus
Hey all, you (F) lovers and leavers
Stuck in-betweeners
(G) Loners and stoners
Old drunks and dreamers
(F) Rumbling and stumbling
Always looking for something
(G) Past that no trespassing sign
You can see the (F) ball fields
Watch the cars go 'round the (C) courthouse (G/B)
See the (Am) sun go (G) down
Where the (F) street lamps glow
On those checkerboard roads
Wishing (C) I could (G/B) fly like a (Am) cut-string (G) kite
(F) Tapping on the floor of (G) heaven
(F) Tapping on the floor of (G) heaven
(F) Is anybody listening? (G)
Up on Half Mile (F) Hill (G)
Is anybody (F) listening? (G)
