[Verse]
Em
Can't stop addicted to the shindig
D
Chop top he says I'm gonna win big
Bm
Choose not a life of imitation
C
Distant cousin to the reservation
Em
Defunct the pistol that you pay for
D
This punk the feeling that you stay for
Bm
In time I want to be your best friend
C
Eastside love is living on the westend
Em
Knocked out but boy you better come to
D
Don't die you know the truth as some do
Bm
Go write your message on the pavement
C
Burn so bright I wonder what the wave meant
Em
White heat is screaming in the jungle
D
Complete the motion if you stumble
Bm
Go ask the dust for any answers
C
Come back strong with 50 belly dancers
[Chorus]
G
The world I love
D
The tears I've dropped
Bm

The world I love
D
The trains I hop
Bm
To be part of
C
The wave can't stop
G D Bm C
Come and tell me when it's time to
[Verse]
Em
Sweetheart is bleeding in the snowcone
D
So smart she's leading me to ozone
Bm
Music the great communicator
C
Use two sticks to make it in the nature
Em
I'll get you into penetration
D
The gender of a generation
Bm
The birth of every other nation
C
Worth your weight the gold of meditation
Em
This chapter's going to be a close one
D
Smoke rings I know you're going to blow one
Bm
All on a spaceship persevering
C
Use my hands for everything but steering
Em
Can't stop the spirits when they need you
D
Mop tops are happy when they feed you
Bm
Jay butterfly is in the treetop
C
Birds that blow the meaning into bebop
[Chorus]
G
The world I love
D
The tears I've dropped
Bm
To be part of
C
the wave can't stop
G D Bm C
Ever wonder if it's all for you
G
The world I love
D
The trains I hop
Bm
To be part of
C
The wave can't stop
G D Bm-C
Come and tell me when it's time to
[Interlude]
Em D Bm C
Wait a minute I'm passing out, win or lose, just like you
Em D Bm C
Far more shockin' than anything I ever knew, how 'bout you
Em D Bm C
Ten more reasons why I need somebody new, just like you
Em D Bm C
Far more shockin' than anything I ever knew, right on cue

Comin' from space to teach you of the Pliedes
Em
Can't stop the spirits when they need you
