Verse
G C Am C
Here there floats an island of saints
D G
Apprentice boys and girls
C Am C
Say hi, to devils that waste their time
D G C Am C
And they fall when shoes don't fit them so well
D G C
Slip back pumps and lounges
Am C D
It's where we go to cheer them on
[Chorus]
G Em C
Riders on the ride, won't you help me?
G Em C
It's crowded and a bit too lonely
G Em C
Mirror balls and they're spinning
G Em C
Happy and ascending
D C
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
G C Am C
All these words that line the page
D G C
Dye jobs fade, sunsets
Am C D
That we rent when we get bored with the
G C
Pinstripe suits
Am C D G C
Degrees admin and personnel will wink
Am C D
Got lips and tigers in the past
[Chorus]
G Em C
Riders on the ride, won't you help me?
G Em C
It's crowded and a bit too lonely
G Em C
Mirror balls and they're spinning
G Em C
Happy and ascending
D C
Yeah, yeah
