Em 
Can't stop addicted to the shindig 
D 
Chop top he says I'm gonna win big 
B 
Choose not a life of imitation 
C 
Distant cousin to the reservation 
Em 
Defunct the pistol that you pay for 
D 
This punk the feeling that you stay for 
B 
In time I want to be your best friend 
C 
Eastside love is living on the westend 
 
Knocked out but boy you better come to 
Don't die you know the truth as some do 
Go write your message on the pavement 
Burn so bright I wonder what the wave meant 
White heat is screaming in the jungle 
Complete the motion if you stumble 
Go ask the dust for any answers 
Come back strong with 50 belly dancers 
 
     G 
The world I love 
     D 
The tears I've dropped 
   Bm 
To be part of 
     C 
the wave can't stop 
G           D        Bm      C 
Ever wonder if it's all for you  
     G 
The world I love 
      D 
The trains I hop 
   Bm 
To be part of 
     C 
The wave can't stop 
 G                 D         Bm C 
Come and tell me when it's time to 
 
Sweetheart is bleeding in the snowcone 
So smart she's leading me to ozone 
Music the great communicator 
Use two sticks to make it in the nature 
I'll get you into penetration 
The gender of a generation 
The birth of every other nation 
Worth your weight the gold of meditation 
This chapter's going to be a close one 
Smoke rings I know you're going to blow one 
All on a spaceship persevering 
Use my hands for everything but steering 
Can't stop the spirits when they need you 
Mop tops are happy when they feed you 
Jay butterfly is in the treetop 
Birds that blow the meaning into bebop  
 
Chorus 
 
Em                 D                   Bm              C 
Wait a minute I'm passing out, win or lose, just like you 
Em                       D              Bm             C 
Far more shockin' than anything I ever knew, how 'bout you 
Em                D                  Bm             C 
Ten more reasons why I need somebody new, just like you 
Em                       D              Bm             C 
Far more shockin' than anything I ever knew, right on cue 
 
Can't stop addicted to the shindig 
Chop top he says I'm gonna win big 
Choose not a life of imitation 
Distant cousin to the reservation 
Defunct the pistol that you pay for 
This punk the feeling that you stay for 
In time I want to be your best friend 
Eastside love is living on the westend 
Knocked out but boy you better come to 
Don't die you know the truth as some do 
Go write your message on the pavement 
Burn so bright I wonder what the wave meant 
Kick start the golden generator 
Sweet talk but don't intimidate her 
Can't stop the Gods from engineering 
Feel no need for any interfering 
Your image in the dictionary 
This life is more than ordinary 
Can I get 2 maybe even 3 of these 
Comin' from space 
To teach you of the Pliedes 
Can't stop the spirits when they need you 
This life is more than just a read-thru
