INTRO (freely)
Asus4/E     Dsus2/F#     Asus4/E
 The streets are lined with camera crews
Asus4/E D add#11/F# Asus4/E D
  Everywhere he  goes is news
C     Gmaj7/B
 Today is different
 C       Gmaj7/B
Today is not the same
 C add#11    G/B
Today I make the action
   Am    G/B   C
Take snapshot into the light
Am    G/B   C
Snapshot into the light
  Am    G/B   C
I'm shooting into the light


VERSE
F#m    F#sus4    F#m    F#sus4
Four miles down the cavalcade moves on
E  Esus4     E  Esus4
 Driving into the sun
A Asus4  A       Asus4
    If I worked it out right
   A     Asus4   A  Asus4
They won't see me or the gun

F#m     F#sus4   F#m     F#sus4
Two miles to go, they're clearing the road
  E      Esus4  E  Esus4
The cheering has really begun
A Asus4      A  Asus4
    I've got my radio
   A      Asus4   A Asus4
I can hear what's going on


BRIDGE
| C#m D | E            F#m
      I've been waiting for this
| C#m D | E            F#m
 I     have been waiting for this
C#m        D
All you people in TV land
    E          F#m
I will wake up your empty shells
C#m        D
Peak-time viewing blown in a flash
   E           F#m
As I burn into your memory cells
  | C#m D | E | F#m | % |
'Cos I'm    alive


VERSE
    F#m
They're coming 'round the corner with the bikers at the front
  E
I'm wiping the sweat from my eyes
A   Asus4    A  Asus4
 It's a matter of time,
A   Asus4    A  Asus4
 It's a matter of will

    F#m
And the governor's car is not far behind
   E
He's not the one I've got in mind
A      Asus4    A      Asus4
 'Cos there he is - the man of the hour
A      Asus4  A  Asus4
Standing in the limousine


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


TURNING POINT
G      F#m
 Holding my breath
G       F#m
 Release the catch
G    G    A   C/D
  And I let the bullet fly


CODA (freely; letters not capitalized indicate single notes only)
b  c   c#  d
             Em
All turned quiet - I have been here before
       e c f# g d  b a  g  b (triplets)
 C         G    Am    G/B  C
A lonely boy    hiding behind the front door
Am      G/B   C
Friends have all gone home
C/D              G
  There's my toy gun on the floor

G     Bm   Em
Come back Mum and Dad
    C    G/B
You're growing apart
  Am      G/B    C
You know that I'm growing up sad
 Am     C
I need some attention
D Dsus4 D Dsus4          G
         I shoot into the light
