Rising from the afterglow, [D#][G#]a dodo [A#m]bird, a polio.
[G#m][G#]And me, I know, [C#]I know, I know, I know.
[G#][C#m]Playing with a rock [G#]to roll, playing [C#m]on a subway.
It [A#m7/C#]keeps me far away [Amaj7]from the gamma rays.
[C#]We live between the boom, boom, crash and fade away, I know.
