[Intro]

[Verse 1]
G F Bb C
Turn off the TV and turn off the light
Eb F C
Turn off the street lamps as well

Turn off the billboards that scream through the night
Eb Dm G
And dream the policemen to Hell
[Verse 2]

Close all the windows and close all the doors

Close all the shutters and blinds

Close down the churches and pray to the whores

Lay down and then close your eyes

It's amazing what comes into view

As we're finally breaking the chains

When the temperature rises

We'll go to our place in the rain
[Verse 3]

Take down the pictures and take out the trash
Eb F C
Take up the tattered old rugs
G F Bb C
Take up the mattress and count all the cash
Eb Dm G
And laugh with the last of the drugs
[Verse 4]
G F Bb C
Burn all the papers and burn all the wood
Eb F C
Burn what we can't understand
G F Bb C
Run up a flag for the old neighbourhood
Eb Dm G
Sit back and then take my hand
[Chorus 2]
Bb Eb F
It's amazing what lovers can do
Bb Eb F
With just a kiss and a glass of champagne
Bb Eb
When the rivers run dry
F Dm7 G F Dm G [x2]
We'can go to our place in the rain

Pray that we make it that far

Run from the poison and run from the flames

Laugh at the whispers of who'll take the blame

And sing all the sinners out loud

When every good citizen's sane

When heaven's a desert
