[Verso 1]


G 
Check your pulse 
                              D7 
It's proof that you're not listening to 
                            Em7 
The call your life's been issuing you 
                   Cm9   
The rhythm of the line of idle days 

G                                           C9   
Scared of the world outside you should go explore 
G                                           C9   
Pull all the shades and wander the great indoors 
               G 
The great indoors

G 
Lamplight makes the shadows play 
      D7 
And posters take the walls away 
    Em7 
The TV is a window pane 
     Cm9   
The view wont let you down 

G 
So put your faith in a late night show 
  D7 
I bet you didn't even know 
   Em7 
Depends on how far out you go 
     Cm9   
The channel numbers change 

G                                           C9   
Scared of the world outside you should go explore 
G                                           C9   
Pull all the shades and wander the great indoors 


[Ponte]


        Cm7             Em7 
Though lately I can't blame you 
        D 
I have seen the world 
       C                  D               
And sometimes wish your room had room for two 

( G  C9  G  C9 ) 

   Em7           C9   
So go unlock the door 
     Em7               C9   
And find what you are here for 
                  G 
Leave the great indoors 
                  C9   
Leave the great indoors 

( G  C9  G  C9 )

It's proof that you're not listening to 
                            Em7 
The call your life's been issuing you

The rhythm of the line of idle days 
         Cm9   
Of idle days
