[Verse]
A D
Johnny`s got high expectations
A D
He`s gonna rise
A D
Everyone knows that Johnny is ready
A D
He`s ready to fly
F#m E D
Up on the rooftop he turns to the crowd
F#m
No one is waiting
E
No one is there
[Chorus]
A D
Nobody knows why Elvis threw it all away
A D
Nobody knows what Roobik had to hide
A D
Nobody knows why some of us get broken hearts
A D
And some of us find a world that`s clear and bright
Bm E
You could be packed up and ready
Bm E
Knowing exactly where to go
Bm E
How come you miss the connection?
F#m E F#m7
No use in asking...the answer is nobody knows
D E A
No use in asking...the answer is nobody knows
[Verse]
A D
Johnny will keep his illusions
A D
What else can he do?
A D
And you can pretend that it would be different
A D
If it happened to you
F#m E D
But up on the rooftop, it`s a whole other world
F#m
And who could see heaven
E
And not want to stay?
[Chorus]
A D
Nobody knows why Elvis threw it all away
A D
Nobody knows what Roobik had to hide
A D
Nobody knows why some of us get broken hearts
A D
And some of us find a world that`s clear and bright
Bm E
You could be packed up and ready
Bm E
Knowing exactly where to go
Bm E
How come you miss the connection?
F#m E F#m7
No use in asking...the answer is nobody knows
D E A
No use in asking...the answer is nobody knows
