Tom: B5

Intro:   Esus4*

B*             Bb9*
Fork lightning in your hall
Ab*                     G9*
Break the skin when you break the fall
G5           D5             E5
I'll be the one to fix it up
B5               Bb5
Love children of the new age
Ab5                  G5
Just a hippy with a weekly wage
G5            D5                           G5     A5
There's no rebellion just a chance to be lazy


E5   G5       A5       E5
When fame is in your blood
    G5          A5          E5           
You follow the science of love
G5        A5     E5
Wave the magic wand
    F#5
And hang on

The rest of us are living in a daze

Keep thinkin' 'bout the choice to be made

Here come the handmaidens of end time

Lost treasure from a primitive race

All the lives written on your face

can't fill the canyons of your mind
E5   G5       A5       E5
When fame is in your blood
    G5          A5          E5           
You follow the science of love
G5        A5     E5
Wave the magic wand
    G5         F#5
And hang on
G5    F#5

            B5     E5
Now you've changed and jumbled the pieces
       B5          E5
You've changed but you were better off before
    B5          E5                
You talked to a roomful of strangers

G5             D5                   G5    A5
Here come the handmaidens of end time
E5   G5       A5       E5
When fame is in your blood
    G5          A5          E5           
You follow the science of love
G5        A5     E5
Wave the magic wand
G5               A5           E5
And all of your spells will break
G5               A5          E5
And all of your stars will fall
G5               A5      G5   A5   E5
So look out for number one
G5       A5       E5
Fame is in your blood
G5    A5    E5
