On The Air


Key: E major, Time: 4/4, Tempo: 141

Intro:


|E5 /D /G| /A /E| /F# /G /A |

|Bsus4 |A |E/G# |E D5|

|B |A |E/G# |E D5|


Verse 1: (0:34-)

|B |A |E/G# |E D5|
Built in the belly of junk by the river my cabin stands
|B |A |E/G# |E D5|
Made from the trash I dug out 'the heap, with my own fair hands

|E |G#m/D# |E7/D |C#m7 |
Every night, I'm back at the shack and I'm sure no one is there
|E |G#m/D# |E7/D ||6/4 Am6/C |
I'm putting the aerial up, so I can go out on the air

|Cmaj7-5 ||7/4


Chorus: (1:05-)
~~~~~~~
|B C#m7 B |
(On the air) - on the air
|E/G# B7/F# E ||4/4
(On the air) - on the air
|A/C# B |E/A | ||
On the air______


(Intro) (1:16-)


[Verse 2] (1:20-)

Every morning I'm out at dawn with the dwarfs and the tramp
For a silent communion lit from above by the sodium lamps

Everyone I meet out on the street acts as if I wasn't there
But they're all going to know who I am 'cos I can go out on the air


(Chorus) (1:51-)


Bridge: (2:02-)
~~~~~~~
|A | |
Leaving the car down leafy lane
Turning out Tarzan for my Jungle Jane

|F# | |
anyone at all, from Captain Zero and
his brand of superhero, standing by a call

|D |A |
Oh it's not easy, no no no
|D |A |Esus4/B | ||
No, no it's not easy making real friends


(Intro) (2:27-)


[Verse 3] (2:46-)

Don't you give me your steak-reared milkboys, milkboys
Half alive on empty white noise, white noise

I got power, I'm proud to be loud; my signal goes out clear,
I want everybody to know that Mozo is here


(Chorus) (3:16-)


Coda: (3:27-)
~~~~~
|E/A | /B|

|Esus2 | /D /G| | /F# /C#|
| | /C /F| | /B /E |
(repeat twice)

||Esus2 | | | || | | |
On the air________ on the air_____

|Esus2 | (repeat to end)
