Standard tuning – E A D G B E
Verse 1:
B B Far from the evergreen of old Assam. B B E Far from the rainfall on the trails of old Saigon. E Straight from the poster town of scorn and Ritz. B B To bring you the wilder side of golden glitz.
Chorus 1:
F# (G#m) E (F#) Run, Neon Tiger, there's a lot on your mind. F# (B) G#m (G#) They promised just to pet you, but don't you let 'em get you. E (B) F# Away, away, oh, one. E (F#) B B Under the heat of the south-west sun.
Verse 2:
B B You took to the spotlight like a diamond ring. B B They came from the woodwork in the hopes they might E E redeem themselves for poor decisions B B to win big.
Chorus 2:
F# (G#m) E (F#) Run, Neon Tiger, there's a lot on your mind. F# (B) G#m (G#) They'll strategise and name you, but don't you let 'em tame you. E (B) F# You're far too pure and bold E (B) F# to suffer the strain of the hangman’s hold.
Bridge:
B B I don't wanna be kept, I don't wanna be caged, I don't wanna be damned, oh hell. B B I don't wanna be broke, I don't wanna be saved, I don't wanna be SOL. E E Give me rolling hills so tonight can be the night that I stand among a thousand thrills. B B Mister cut me some slack, 'cos I don't wanna go back, I want a new day and age. F# E Come on girls and boys, everyone make some noise!
Fill:

Chorus 3:
F# (G#m) E (F#) Run, Neon Tiger, there's a price on your head. F# (B) G#m (G#) They'll hunt you down and gut you, I'll never let 'em touch you. E (B) F# Away, away, oh, one. E (F#) G#m I’m begging you, Neon Tiger, run. E (F#) E (F#) Under the heat of, under the heat of, E (F#) B under the heat of the south-west sun.
Outro:
B Neon Tiger. F# B There's a lot on your mind.
