Verse 1:
D                      Bm7              F#m
 Who cares? What's the use of crying? Nothing
                 A
Just sink in the mud, arms waving
   D                               Bm7
Airlift me off the silt flats in a bore tide
F#m                         A                             D
Sailor boy, stand under the light in my grandfather's dog tags
                 Bm7                    F#m
If you could be strong you'd insert the knife
             A                     D
You'd be the king and I'll be your wife
                   Bm7
Find some place to hide
          G
Where the dream survives
         Gm               A
When I'm lonely will your love be mine?
                D
Maybe we can pretend
Chorus:
           Bm7
On standby, on standby
F#m                    A
 Stand on God, keep on running, boy, you cry
D           Bm7
 On standby, on standby
F#m                       A
 Stand on God, we see you coming, you'll know crime
D            F#m
 You'll know crime
                   D
But you don't know why
            F#m
You'll know crime
                   D
But you don't know why
 
 
Verse 2:
                    Bm7              F#m
What's the family's role when felony rules?
                A                      D
The killer, the carp, the creeper, the fool
                  Bm7
On dunes where we ride
         G
Will the dreams survive?
Gm          A
I'll remain positive
                                D
We don't need more rules we can bend
                      Bm7                F#m
You could tell me the point of today's nothing
                       A           D
I'll hold you 'til the golden boomerang returns
                    Bm7          F#m
So you could jump into the Sandy with
               A          D
Me and my baby soaking in it
 
 
Chorus:
           Bm7
On standby, on standby
F#m                    A
 Stand on God, keep on running, boy, you cry
D           Bm7
 On standby, on standby
F#m                       A
 Stand on God, we see you coming, you'll know crime
D  Bm7            F#m   A
      You'll know crime
                   D    Bm7
But you don't know why
            F#m
You'll know crime
A                   D
 But you don't know why
Bm7        F#m
   Life forgives
              A                            D
But when it's gone, there it goes, my happiness
Bm7              F#m
   Love don't forget
              A                            D
But when it's gone, there it goes, my happiness
 
 
Verse 3:
            F5           C5               D5
You've been lonely long enough to know it hurts
                  F5           C5      D5
Still sinking - industrial society and futures were no fantasy
F5                  C5            D5
Close your eyes, go to a place, a cabin in a room
                  F5           C5               D5
Where you've been lonely long enough to know it hurts, yeah
