Are You Out There Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D][Bm][D]
Perhaps I am a miscreation
No one knows the [Bm]truth
there is no future here
And [D]you're the DJ
speaks to my insomnia
And laughs at all I [Bm]have to fear
Laughs at all I have to fear
You [Em]al ways play the m[A]admen poets
[Em]Vinyl [A]vision grungy bands
You [Em]never know who's [A]still awake
You [Em]never know who [A]understands and
[Bm]Are you out there,

[Verse 2]
can you hear this?
[G]Jimmy Olson, [A]Johnny Memphis,
[Bm]I was out here listening all the [G]time[A]
And [Bm]though the static
walls surround me
[G]You were out there [A]an d you found me
[Bm]I was out here listening all the tim[G]e[A]
[D]Last night we drank in parking lots And

[Verse 3]
[D]
why do we drink? I
[A]guess we [Bm]do it cause
And [D]when I turned your station on
You sounded more familiar
than that [Bm]party was
You were more familiar
than that party
It's the [Em]first time I stayed [A]up all night
It's [Em]getting light I [A]hear the birds
I'm [Em]driving home on [A]empty streets
I [Em]think I put my [A]shirt on backwards
[Bm]Are you out there,

[Verse 4]
can you hear this
[G]Jimmy Olson ,[A]Johnny Memphis
[Bm]I was out here listening all the [G]time[A]
And [Bm]though the static
walls surround me
[G]You were out there [A]an d you found me
[Bm]I was out here listening all the [G]time[A]
And [Bm]what's the future, who will choose it?

[Verse 5]
[G]
Politics of [A]love and music
[Bm]Underdogs who turn the tables
[G]Indie versus [A]ma jor labels
[Bm]There's so much to see through
Like our [G]parents do more
[A]drugs than we do
[Bm]Oh
[G][A]

[Verse 6]
[D]Corporate parents, corporate towns
I know every TV set that [Bm]has them lit
They [D]preach that I should save the world
They pray that I won't do a
better [Bm]job of it
Pray that I won't do a better job
So tonight [Em]I turned your sta[A]tion
on [Em]just so I'd be [A]un derstood
In[Em]stead another [A]voice said
I was [Em]just too late
And [A]just no good
Calling [C#m]Olson,

[Verse 7]
Calling Memphis
[A]I am calling, [B]can you hear this?
[C#m]I was out here listening all the [A]time
[B]And I w[C#m]ill write this down
And then I [A]will not [B]be alone again yeah
[C#m]I was out here listening
Oh yeah [A]I was out here l[B]istening
Oh yeah [C#m]I am out here
listening all the [A]time[F#m][B][E]
