INTRO (freely)
Asus4/E Dsus2/F# Asus4/E
The streets are lined with camera crews
Asus4/E D MajorD add#11/F# Asus4/E D MajorD
Everywhere he goes is news
C majorC Gmaj7/B
Today is different
C majorC Gmaj7/B
Today is not the same
C majorC add#11 G/BG/B
Today I make the action
A minorAm G/BG/B C majorC
Take snapshot into the light
A minorAm G/BG/B C majorC
Snapshot into the light
A minorAm G/BG/B C majorC
I'm shooting into the light
VERSE
F# minorF#m F#sus4F#sus4 F# minorF#m F#sus4F#sus4
Four miles down the cavalcade moves on
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE Esus4Esus4
Driving into the sun
A augmentedA Asus4Asus4 A augmentedA Asus4Asus4
If I worked it out right
A augmentedA Asus4Asus4 A augmentedA Asus4Asus4
They won't see me or the gun
F# minorF#m F#sus4F#sus4 F# minorF#m F#sus4F#sus4
Two miles to go, they're clearing the road
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE Esus4Esus4
The cheering has really begun
A augmentedA Asus4Asus4 A augmentedA Asus4Asus4
I've got my radio
A augmentedA Asus4Asus4 A augmentedA Asus4Asus4
I can hear what's going on

I've been waiting for this
| C# minorC#m D MajorD | E MajorE F# minorF#m
I have been waiting for this
C# minorC#m D MajorD
All you people in TV land
E MajorE F# minorF#m
I will wake up your empty shells
C# minorC#m D MajorD
Peak-time viewing blown in a flash
E MajorE F# minorF#m
As I burn into your memory cells
| C# minorC#m D MajorD | E MajorE | F# minorF#m | % |
'Cos I'm alive
VERSE
F# minorF#m
They're coming 'round the corner with the bikers at the front
E MajorE
I'm wiping the sweat from my eyes
A augmentedA Asus4Asus4 A augmentedA Asus4Asus4
It's a matter of time,
A augmentedA Asus4Asus4 A augmentedA Asus4Asus4
It's a matter of will
F# minorF#m
And the governor's car is not far behind
E MajorE
He's not the one I've got in mind
A augmentedA Asus4Asus4 A augmentedA Asus4Asus4
'Cos there he is - the man of the hour
A augmentedA Asus4Asus4 A augmentedA Asus4Asus4
Standing in the limousine

"I don't really hate you
F# minorF#m C# minorC#m
I don't care what you do
D MajorD E MajorE
We were made for each other
F# minorF#m
Me and you
C# minorC#m D MajorD
I want to be somebody
E MajorE F# minorF#m
You were like that too
C# minorC#m D MajorD
If you don't get given you learn to take
E MajorE F# minorF#m
And I will take you."
TURNING POINT

Friends have all gone home

There's my toy gun on the floor
G+G B minorBm E minorEm
Come back Mum and Dad

I need some attention

I shoot into the light
