[First Part]

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
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

[Segunda Parte]

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

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

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
