[VERSE 1]
C#m*                       
 Excuse me now I've got a call

 Please tell my friends from outer space
 You are my son you'll take my place
B           F#          C#m*   C#m*
 And if the revolution comes

 And by the way if the Revolution comes

it's cool how frank switches the order of lines in the song.
like in verse one, lines 1–2–3–4
are reversed in verse three. (4–3–2–1)
it's the same thing with the chorus
the rhyme sequence is neat too.
