This is just an acoustic version from a show Beck performed on KCRW. Intro: C C F G

C  F			      Am
If I could hold, hold out for now

C	F                     Am
With these icecaps melting down

C	F		   Am
With the transistor sound

C	F                   Am
And my Chevrolet terraplane

				C
Going around around around

C			F      G    C
Come on little gamma ray

C		       F      G    C
Standing in a hurricane

C                            F              G
Your brains are bored like a refugee from a house that's burning

C				 F	  G
And the heat wave's calling your name

Am-C-F-C-F			   Am
         She's got a cactus crown

C          F		   Am
With a dot dot dot on her brow

C             F		Am
And she speaks inside a cloud

C	  F	              	            Am				                         C
With her countenance turning around around around around around

C		           F	  G     C
Come on little gamma ray

C		         F       G      C
Standing in a hurricane

C		     
I'm pulling out thorns

F	          G		     C
Smokestack lightning out my window

C			 F
I want to know what I've lost today

C			F	G	C
Come on little gamma ray

C		     F	       G        C
Standing in a hurricane

He starts picking here, but I didn't really have time to figure it all out. I think the song sounds fine without, but tab it out if you have the time.

C
Your body's bored

F		          G				C
Like a refugee from a house that's burning

C		         F
And the backwater's calling your name
