A new, but all-time favorite of a fan of many years. Can't vouch for the key, but I
it in A. Why the bastard won't play this thing live is beyond me. Seems to frustrate his
player as well!
the day the aliens came
A D E (x2)
A D E A D E I will wake up at six a.m. again. A D E and I will find my way to the front door A D E like a soldier crawling through the smoking carnage. D A smoldering bodies at my feet, D E I'd love to stick around, but I've got someone to meet. A D E and I will put my best foot forward. A D E and I'll thank god I made it out of there A D E A D E on the day when my new friends come. A D E A D E I will present myself in my nice white tuxedo jacket. A D E and I will look out at the day through my dark sunglasses, A D E and take in the scene. D A the house behind me and the people in it D E will all go up like steam in just a minute. A D E there's gonna be a redefining of some borders, A D E and I will receive my orders A D E A D E on the day when my new friends come. F# A the rooftops and the sidewalks F# A will all melt like plastic. F# A and oh friends, old friends, dear friends, D E I'm gonna look fantastic. A D E there won't be any reason left to cry A D E 'cause there won't be any people left to cry for. A D E my memory's gonna vaporize itself. A D E and my italian shoes, well, they will be to die for. D A I believe I can fly. D E might you look up at me and wave goodbye A D E on the day when my new friends come.
