[Intro: ]Am 

Am                       E            Dm                 Am 
In a quiet street washed by the rain, the room within the home. 
Am                E                    Dm               Am 
A lonely man sits cheek to cheek, with unique designs in chrome. 
Dm                    Bb            C               Dm 
The mellow years have long gone by, but now he sits alone. 
Dm                 Bb     C                  E 
He has a brand new radio, but never turns it on.

Am              E                Dm                Am 
A photograph of lovers lost, lies pressed in magazines.     
Am                 E               Dm                          Am 
Her eyes belong to a thousand girls, she's the wife who's never seen. 
Dm                     Bb        C                 Dm 
Their educated son has left, in search of borrowed dreams. 
Dm                Bb         C                  E 
His television's in his bed, he's frozen to the screen.

Am                        E              Dm                 Am 
On a crowded beach washed by the sun, he puts his headphones on. 
Am               E               Dm                Am 
His modern world revolves around the synthesizer's song. 
Dm             Bb                    C               Dm 
Full of future thoughts and thrills, his senses slip away. 
Dm              Bb       C              E 
He's a European legacy, a culture for today.
