Verse 1:

C Am G F#7

Sitting on a hillside

Watching all the people die

G C E A

I'll feel much better on the other side

Am G F#7 F F#

I'll bum a ride

Verse 2/3:

I believe in magic

Why, because it is so quick

I don't need power when I'm hypnotized

Am G

Look in my eyes

F#7 F F#

What are you seeing (I see...)

How do you feel?

BbaddE AaddB

Life goes on here

BbaddE AaddB

Day after day

E Fmaj7

I don't know if I am living or if I'm

Supposed to be

Sometimes my life is so eerie

D

And if you think I'm happy

C G/B A

Paint me (white)

(yellow)

BbaddE AaddB [2X]

/ / / / / / / /

I've been here once

I've been here twice

I don't know if the third's the fourth or if

The fifth's the fix

Sometimes I deal with numbers

And if you wanna count me

Count me out

Verse 4:

I don't need the time of day

Anytime with me's OK

I just don't want you using up my time

[Am]

'Cause that's not right

Coda:

[repeat 3X:]

Am A

/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /

ahh....

[repeat 3X:]

Am

They're locking them up today

They're throwing away the key

A

I wonder who it'll be tomorrow, you or me?

Am

We're all normal and we want our freedom

A

Freedom... freedom... freedom... freedom

Am A

Freedom... freedom... freedom... freedom

[continue with Am-A progression to fade]

(spoken:) Alla God's chilluns gotta have dere freedom
