       D
you´re sitting
            G        e
next to the elevator door
            Hm               A 
between the first and second floor
             D
and there is nothing

       D
you´re hoping
        G              e 
the elevator brings you more
           Hm         A
it´s cabin is a labrator
           D
for human wanting

Bridge:

        G                  e
the elevator brings you on up
        Hm              D
but the engine didn´t stopp 
         G                 e
the automatic door stays closed
           Hm              D
eight from ten is sure the most
                                      D
and first seven are gone long time before

       D
you´re looking
            G           e
at the display it says nine
            Hm                  A
perhabs the last girl friend of mine
            D
but she is upstairs

       D
you´re hearing 
              G        e
the sound the elevator sings
              Hm               A
the ping that in your stomage rings
        D
again descending

Bridge:

        G               e
another one is stepping in
          Hm            D
a new big hope in the cabin
        G               e
the elevator lifts her high
             Hm             D
´till your étage and passes by
                                         D
number nine is gone, i think she left at seven

Refrain:

D             G        Hm

              A            D
it brings you up and even higher
           G                      Hm
don´t be scared, there´s nothing wrong
           A                D
trust the 40 thousand pound wire

       D
i´m waiting 
          G            e
for a new tour of the cab
         Hm           A 
but it stays at seven up
           D
is it not working

    D
i´m feeling
             G             e
that the machine is out of order
           Hm              A 
it´s up to me to cross the border
           D
i´m going downstairs

Bridge:

          G                 e

        Hm             D
for the only one blind date
           G               e
and as i´m going down with me 
              Hm         D
starts a long muted melody
                                                 D
