[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
I was staring out the [C]window
The whole [F]time he was talking to me
[C]It was a filthy pane of glass
I couldn't [Am]get a clear v[Eb]iew
[C]And as he went on and on
It wasn't the [F]outside world I could see
[Dm]Just the filthy [Bb]pane that [G#]I
[D]was looking thr[C]ough[F]
So I had to break the [E]window[F]
It just had to [E]be[F]
Better that I break the [E]window
Than [Am]him or [F#dim]her or me[D]
[C]I was never focused on just one thing
My [F]eyes got fixed when my mind got so
[C]It may look like I'm concentrated on
A [Am]very clear [Eb]view[C]
But I'm as good as asleep
I [F]bet you didn't know
[Dm]It'd take a lot of it away[Bb]
If you [D]do[C][D][Dm][C][F]
I had to break the [E]window[F]
It just had [E]to be[F]
Better that I break the [E]window
Than [Am]him or [F#dim]her or me[D]
[F]I had to break the w[E]indow
[F]It just had to [E]be
It was in my [F]way
Better that I break the [E]window
Than for[Am]get what I h[F#dim]ad to say[D]
[Am]Or miss what I sho[F#dim]uld
[D]see[Am][F#dim][D]
[Dm]Because the fact being that
Whatever's in front of me
Is coloring my [Am]view
[Dm]So I can't see what I'm seeing, in fact
I only see what I'm looking through
[Bb][F][E][F][E][F][E][Am][F#dim][D]
[C]
So again I've done the right thing
I was [F]never worried about [C]that
The answer's always been
[Am]in clear v[F#dim]iew[Eb]
[C]But even when the window was cleaned
I [F]still can't see for the fact
That [Dm]when it's clean
It's so clear
[Bb]I can't tell what I'm[C]
looking [Gsus4]through[D]
[F]So I had to break the win[E]dow[F]
It just had [E]to be
It was in my [F]way
Better that I break [E]the window
Than [Am]him or [F#dim]her or me[D]
[F]I had to break the w[E]indow
[F]It just had to [E]be
It was in my [F]way
Better that I break the [E]window
Than [Am]miss what [F#dim]I should see[D]
[F]I had to break the w[E]indow
[F]It just had to [E]be
It was in my [F]way
Better that I break the [E]window
Than for[Am]get what I h[F#dim]ad to say[D]
[Am]Or miss what I sho[F#dim]uld see[D]
[Am]Or break him or her [F#dim]or me[D]
Es[Am]pecially [F#dim]me
