NOTES:
Riff. A (intro solo riff by Steve) is a very close approximation,

other than Riff. A being slightly different.

VERSE:
Em
Hey tired on the street
G
With your head hangin' down
Em
Staying quiet on the corner
G
Of your dirty little town
Em D
Do you think there is somethin'
Cadd9 G
That we oughta talk about
Cadd9
What's the matter with the cars that are crammed on
D
The interstate now
Cadd9 D
Crowdin' around faith in the center of town,
G Gsus4
Around a Burger King monolith
G Gsus4
Em
On the tip of the iceberg
G
Heat of debate
Em
Says you better quit your grovelin'
G
The 51st state
Em D
Doesn't think there is anything
Cadd9 G
That we oughta talk about
Cadd9
What's the matter with the face of the crowd
D
Cryin' out loud
Cadd9 D
Can't stop their chatterin', illusion shatterin'
G Gsus4
I'm pickin' up the pieces
G Gsus4
Cadd9 D Cadd9
And on the screen of my TV
D
Somethin's tellin' me
G D Cadd9 Cadd9/B
It won't ever come clean
G - Gsus4 x2 (w/ Riff. A)
Em G
Now here's a story of a guy
Em G
Who was carryin' a stick that poked out his eye
Em D
Here's a little somethin'
Cadd9 G
That we oughta talk about
Cadd9
What's the matter with the public eye
D
That's you and I
Cadd9 D
Sticks start pokin' And the dirt's in your eye
G Gsus4
I can see you rubbin' it
G - Gsus4
Cadd9 D Cadd9
And on the screen of my TV
D
Somethin's tellin' me
Cadd9 D Cadd9 Cadd9/B (A5)* G
It won't ever come clean
