G#m F# D#m E
[Verse]
G#m
Can't stop addicted to the shindig
F#
Chop top he says I'm gonna win big
D#m
Choose not a life of imitation
E
Distant cousin to the reservation
G#m
Defunct the pistol that you pay for
F#
This punk the feeling that you stay for
D#m
In time I want to be your best friend
E
Eastside love is living on the westend
[Verse]
G#m
Knocked out but boy you better come to
F#
Don't die you know the truth as some do
D#m
Go write your message on the pavement
E
Burn so bright I wonder what the wave meant
G#m
White heat is screaming in the jungle
F#
Complete the motion if you stumble
D#m
Go ask the dust for any answers
E
Come back strong with 50 belly dancers
[Chorus]
B
The world I love
F#
The tears I've dropped
D#m
To be part of
E
the wave can't stop
B F# D#m E

B
The world I love
F#
The trains I hop
D#m
To be part of
E
The wave can't stop
B F# D#m E~
Come and tell me when it's time to
[Verse]
G#m
Sweetheart is bleeding in the snowcone
F#
So smart she's leading me to ozone
D#m
Music the great communicator
E
Use two sticks to make it in the nature
G#m
I'll get you into penetration
F#
The gender of a generation
D#m
The birth of every other nation
E
Worth your weight the gold of meditation
G#m
This chapter's going to be a close one
F#
Smoke rings I know you're going to blow one
D#m
All on a spaceship persevering
E
Use my hands for everything but steering
G#m
Can't stop the spirits when they need you
F#
Mop tops are happy when they feed you
D#m
Jay butterfly is in the treetop
E
Birds that blow the meaning into bebop
[Chorus]
B
The world I love

The tears I've dropped

[Bridge]
G#m F# D#m E
Wait a minute I'm passing out, win or lose, just like you
G#m F# D#m E
Far more shockin' than anything I ever knew, how 'bout you
G#m F# D#m E
Ten more reasons why I need somebody new, just like you
G#m F# D#m E
Far more shockin' than anything I ever knew, right on cue

E
Burn so bright I wonder what the wave meant
G#m
Kick start the golden generator
F#
Sweet talk but don't intimidate her
D#m
Can't stop the Gods from engineering
E
Feel no need for any interfering
G#m
Your image in the dictionary
F#
This life is more than ordinary
D#m
Can I get 2 maybe even 3 of these
E \
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
