Chords you'll need to know:

A - 002220
D - 000232
Em/F# - 222000

Cool1 - 550000 (I'm sorry. If this chord has a name, I can't find it. Please help me on this.)



Tuning: Tune BOTH E-strings down to D's

Intro:    A     Cool1     D

     A
     Live around the hydro towers
     Cool1                         D
     Listen to them singing in the park
     A
     Wind our clocks too tight
                 Cool1                     D  
     And all the radios are glowin' in the dark

     Em/F#        A
     Mother's lie down in the daytime
     Em/F#            A
          Dream about Hollywood
     Em/F#              A                 Cool1
     I know that they'd get there if they could

Chorus:

     A                     Cool1                 D 
     It's just a matter of time before we get to shine
     A                      Cool1                D 
     It's not a question of when or who does the crime

     We show our skin through picture windows
     Sittin' 'round cross-legged on the floor
     Our livin' room's electric TV's
     Light bulbs, irons, cancer to the core

     Out in the backyards waiting
     For women in flying saucers
     Under the stars of power lines

Chorus

     A                     Cool1                 D 
     It's just a matter of time before we get to shine
     Cool1            D
     Before we get to shine
     A                     Cool1                 D    Cool1
     It's just a matter of time before we get to shine
     D      Cool1
     Shine

Harmonica Solo:     A     Cool1    D

     Em/F#            A      
     The fans and the air conditioners
     Em/F#      A
     Runnin' in movie houses
     Em/F#           A           Cool1
     Our mothers are coming home again

     Home again

Chorus x 2


The song sounds pretty right to me, but because I can't find a name for that one chord I'm
starting to wonder if it's the right one to play. Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Also, fiddling with the D can produce some pretty cool sounds for the chorus.
