    Calling Earth

C           Em
  I used to get up and down
C       Em
  Now I just go out
C                 Em
  Dogs have taken over the town
     Am                  G
  So I just stand in the rain


C                  Em
  My job now has become obsolete
C                       Em
  They don't need me to sweep the street
C                 Am
  All that now is done with
                    G
  The sweeping of a hand


C                        Em
  I ain't the thing that people see
C              Em
  As the thing that you need
C       Em
  To be in the place
Am             G
  A man should be


C                       Em
  So I just pick up the odds and ends
C             Em
  Left by the others when
C            Am
  They don't shine
     G
  Anymore


C                   Em
  The people in the place to be
C              Em
  Feel fine to stare at me
C               Em
  Laying here beneath
Am          G
  The water line


C               Em
  I can breathe under the sea
C                 Em
  Mountains step aside for me
C             Am
  Don't wanna be on TV
                          G
  I just want the metal inside


A             C
  I'm the man picks up the metal
F                        E
  Left by the people who think they'd know better
A             C
  I'm the one still in the middle
F                   E
  Between death and solving the riddle
