Intro
| [A] | [G] | [D] | [D] |
| [A] . We live around the hydro towers |
| [G] Listen to them singing in the | [D] park | [D]
| [A] ... Wind our clock to tight |
| [G] And all the radios are glowing in the | [D] dark | [D]
| [Em] ... Mothers lie | [A] down in the day time |
| [Em] ... And dream about | [A] Hollywood |
| [Em] ... I know that they'll | [A] get there if they | [G] could | [G] |
Chorus
| [A] . It just a matter of | [G] time
Before we get to | [D] shine | [D] |
| [A] . It's not a question of | [G] when
or who did the | [D] crime | [D]
We | [A] show our skin in picture windows |
| [G] Sit around cross legged on the | [D] floor | [D] |
| [A] living rooms electric tv's |
| [G] light bulbs, iron cancer | [D] . to the core | [D] |
| [Em] ... Out in the | [A] backyard waiting |
| [Em] ... For women in | [A] flying saucers |
| [Em] ... Under the | [A] stars and power | [G] lines | [G] |
Chorus

Before we get to | [D] shine | [D] |
| [G] . Before we get to | [A] shine | [G] | [A] | [G] |
| [Em] ... The fans and the | [A] air conditioners |

Home a- | [G] gain | [G] |
