Social Distortion - Footprints on my ceiling Standard tuning Intro: x2 Verse 1: Everybody wants a lover nobody wants to uncover What may lay deep beneath a sometimes painful past Wanna go without a care pull gardenias from her hair I think of a time we didn’t have a care in the world Captivated by her beauty I knew it was my life long duty She had all the grace and charm of a radiant queen Chorus: How do you talk without speaking? Yeah How do you hear without listening? How do you live without feeling? Yeah How do you take without gi-ving? And we keep it all inside? Verse 2: There are footprints on my ceiling I can’t help this fucked up feeling Something’s wrong you ain’t comin’ around here no more Try to get my thoughts together I think of a time when things were better This miscommunication is breakin’ me down Chorus: How do you talk without speaking? Yeah How do you hear without listening? How do you live without feeling? Yeah How do you take without gi-ving? How you treat your new best friend? Solo: x6 Verse 3: Everybody wants a lover nobody wants to uncover What may lay deep beneath a sometimes painful past My heart is heavy slowly sinking I redirect my desperate thinking And kiss her red full lips like I did the very first time Chorus: How do you talk without speaking? Yeah How do you hear without listening? How do you live without feeling? Yeah How do you take without gi-ving? There are footprints on my ceiling yeah And I kept it bottled up inside all my life -DP
