 Em
Where do we go from here

     G
The words are coming out all weird

Where are you now, when I need you

 Em
Alone on an aeroplane

 G                                 C
Falling asleep against the window pane

               C7
My blood will thicken

   Em
I need to wash myself again

    G
to hide all the dirt and pain

               C                   C7
Cus I’ve been scared that there’s nothing underneath

Who are my real friends

Have they all got the bends

Am I really sinking this low

Talking to my girlfriend, waiting for something to happen

I wish it was the sixties, I wish I could be happy

The planet is a gunboat in a sea of fear

          C7
And where are you

      Em                      G
They brought in the CIA, the tanks and the whole marines

To blow me away, to blow me sky high
[Refrain]
