INTRO:

F#m, F#m, F#m/G#, F#m/A,
F#m/D, F#m/D, F#m, F#m,
F#m/D, F#m/D, F#m, F#m



VERSE 1:

F#m                   D   
     Side by side we face each other
  E           F#m                D       E
standing here alone together
F#m                        D                 E
     Your code i'll break,    you made your last mistake.
F#m                       D               E
     Called out cold war.    Remnants now on the floor.



CHORUS:

A           E       D/A      E/D
   This is Russian       radio here,
A           E      F#m       D
   Calling you to come back home.
A           E       D/A      E/D
   This is Russian       radio here.
E F#m D                   E F#m D           F#m
       Run while you still   -   you still can.



VERSE 2:
F#m                      D
     Different sides we take our stance.
  E                F#m                 D         E
This could be our last goodbye forever - forever.
F#m                         D              E
     Your spies come clean,   they told me everything.
F#m                     D              E
     Your moves I make,   penance the fire drake.



CHORUS:

A           E       D/A      E/D
   This is Russian       radio here,
A           E      F#m       D
   Calling you to come back home.
A           E       D/A      E/D
   This is Russian       radio here.
E F#m D                   E F#m D           F#m
       Run while you still   -   you still can.



F#m/D, F#m/D, F#m, F#m,
F#m/D, F#m/D, F#m, F#m



BRIDGE:

D      F#m             A
   And if this is our last goodbye
                          D
let me kiss your lips of red tonight
                    A
And walk the other way.
 D        F#m
Run away, run away
  A                                      F#m (solo-riff)
This is our last, this is our last goodbye.



CHORUS:

A           E       D/A      E/D
   This is Russian       radio here,
A           E      F#m       D
   Calling you to come back home.

   This is Russian       radio here.
E F#m D                   E F#m D           
       Run while you still   -   you still can.

       Run while you still   -   you still can.




A lot of songs by Anberlin were played in drop-D-tuning, but this song is quite 
easy to play in standard-tuning, too. 
I left the "How-you-play-the-used-chords"-part open, so nobody has to be 
disadvantaged ;-) 
The sound of this song depends also on the bass. Listen to the original song to 
get a feeling for the bass-notes.


That's it!
