[D][C][G]
[C]
[D][C][G]
[C]
[D]Oh, [C]oh, [G]oh
[C]
[D]Oh, [C]oh, [G]oh
[C]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Where do we go from here?
The [G]words are coming out all weird
Where are you [C]now?
When I need you
[Em]Alone on an airplane
[G]Falling asleep against the window[C]pane

[Interlude 1]
My blood will thicken
[A][A][C][C]

[Verse 2]
I [Em]need to wash myself again
To [G]hide all the dirt and pain
'Cause I'd be [C]scared
That there's nothing underneath
And [Em]who are my real friends
[G]Have they all got the bends?
Am I really [C]sinking

[Chorus 1]
This slow
[D]My baby's got the ben[C]ds[G]
Oh, [C]no
[D]We don't have any real fri[C]ends[G]
No, [C]no, no
Just [A]lying in a bar with my drip feed on
Talking to my girlfriend,
waiting for something to [Em]happen
And I [A]wish it was the sixties,
I wish I could be happy
I wish, I wish, I wish that something
would [Em]happen[Edim]

[Verse 3]
[Em]Where do we go from here?
The [G]planet is a gunboat
in a sea of [C]fear
And where are you?
They [Em]brought in the C.I.A
The [G]tanks and the whole marines
to blow me a[C]way

[Chorus 2]
To blow me sky-high
[D]My baby's got the ben[C]ds[G]
[C]
[D]We don't have any rea[C]l fri[G]ends
[C]
Just [A]lying in a bar with my drip feed on
Talking to my girlfriend,
waiting for something to [Em]happen
I [A]wish it was the sixties,
I wish I could be happy
I wish, I wish, I wish that something
[C]would

[Bridge 1]
[G][G][C][C]
[G][G][C][C]
I want to [G]live, breathe
I want to be part of the human [C]race
I want to [G]live, breathe
I want to be part of the human [C]race,

[Verse 4]
race, race, race?
[Em]Where do we go from here?
The [G]words are coming out all weird
Where are you [C]now?
When I need you
