[Verse 1]
[G]I'll give you
[C]something to [G]write home [C]about
And [G]I'll take you [Bb]some[C]where,
[G]show you [Bb]around[C]
[G]We burnt all the cars
[Bb]that laid down [C]and died
We [G]burnt all the trees to [Bb]keep
us [C]alive[G][Bb][C][G][Bb][C]
[G]Sat 'round the [Bb]fire, [C]san[G]g like a cho[Bb]ir[C]
With the [G]ashes of civilization
[C]in our eyes

[G]Far off, a dull radi[Bb]o[C]
[G]Beats for the young unin[Bb]volved
[C]The[G] meaning's a foo[Bb]tball
[C]A s[G]tick and a can and a Ka[Bb]kadu[C] man

[Verse 4]
Will [G]the speaker speak up or
[Bb]the talker talk [C]down?
[G]The world is no oyster
and [Bb]here in [C]this town
[G]Shit falls like rain on a world [C]that is brown

[A]Nothing could be longer than
that cor[D]rugated [A]roa[D]d
[A]No ever follows where the

And [A]nowhere in the country do the

[G]So [C]hard

[Verse 7]
[Eb]I co[F]me alive
[Eb]I re[F]ad the s[Gm]igns on th[F]e
