Fm
Down on free street
Db      Eb      Fm
Buried six feet down
Fm
In a one horse
Db      Eb            C
Carefully locked door town
Fm                      Db
Where no one ever comes around
      Eb                        Fm
There ain't nothing there to be found
Db
An eye for an eye
Eb
Pound for pound


[Verse 2]
Fm
Blown up yet minimal
Db          Eb       Fm
Built up by criminal hands
Fm
To the republic, it's
Db       Eb       C
sick for which it stands


[Chorus]
          Fm                Db
There's a man on desolation row
        Eb                           Fm
Reaping fruits that someone else has sown
      Db
And a prime time appearance
     Eb
On a television show


[Solo]
| Fm | Db Eb | Fm | Fm |                play four times


[Bridge]
Bbm              Eb                    Fm
    You know the sheep are ridden with disease
Cm          Bbm             Fm
    And I'm down on bending knees
    Db                      Eb
The tumor's spreading oh so fast
    Fm
The remedy will never last
    Db
The die's been cast
        Eb
And the deadline's past


[Verse 3]
          Fm
There's a crying beholder
    Db     Eb       Fm
But no one told her why
     Fm
Just wrapped up in plastic
   Db         Eb     C
Conveniently elastic lies


[Chorus]
Fm           Db
    I got my radio on
     Eb                           Fm
It's playing that same old stupid song
Db                Eb
Over and over for much too long


[Outro]
N.C.        Db        Eb         Fm
I've got to turn that damn thing down
            Db        Eb         Fm
I've got to turn that damn thing down
            Db        Eb         Fm
I've got to turn that damn thing down
            Db        Eb         Fm
I've got to turn that damn thing down
            Db        Eb         Fm
I've got to turn that damn thing down
            Db        Eb         Fm
I've got to turn that damn thing down
            Db        Eb         Fm
I've got to turn that damn thing down
            Db        Eb
I've got to turn that damn thing
Db        Eb
turn that damn thing
Db        Eb         Fm
turn that damn thing down
