Intro: C 

           C       Am 
There are men in white coats 
         G                 F 
holding clipboards biting pens. 
           C         Am 
There are mouths in news rooms 
         G                F 
moving excitedly for the lens. 
G 
the lens... 




         C              F 
And it's only a lesson long 
            C                    F                   G 
before the deep red dirt starts pulling pulling you home 
            Am        C                        F 
But you're fighting, fighting for where you belong 
            G                   Am G 
And that's pushing, pushing you on.  
    F          C 
You on, you on. 






            C         Am 
There are ghosts in black suits 
         G              F 
making choices for the rest. 
       C         Am 
While piles of blueprints 
       G                 F 
are being passed over your head. 
      G 
your head...

            C                    F                   G 
before the deep red dirt starts pulling pulling you home. 
            Am        C                       F 
But you're fighting fighting for where you belong. 
             G                  Am

Doot doot doo, doot doot doo, da-da-da  
F 
Doot doot doo, doot doot doo, da-da-da 
       C        Am            G           F 
Oh the air is electric with promises you never wanted.

Oh the air is electric with promises you never wanted.

Oooh 



         C        Am 
All the veins of silvery oil 
   G                          F 
under the soil are running through you.
