Bm Em F#m x 2
(arpeggiated)
[Verse 1]

They're hosing down trucks at the border
F#m Bm Em F#m
under a rainbow sign
Bm Em
The raindrops falling on my head
F#m Bm Em F#m
burn into my mind

On a hillside in the distance
Em
there's a patch of green sunshine

About the radium rain
[Verse 2]

Everyday in the paper
F#m Bm Em F#m
you can watch the numbers rise
Bm Em
No such event can overtake us here,
F#m Bm Em F#m
we're much too wise
G
In the meantime don't eat anything that grows
Em
and don't breathe when the cars go by

About the radium rain
[Verse 3]
Bm Em
Big motorcycle rumbles out of the rain
F#m Bm Em F#m
Like some creation of the mist
Bm Em
There's a man on a roof with a blindfold on
F#m Bm Em F#m
And a hand grenade in his fist
G
I walk stiff, with teeth clenched tight
Em
Filled with nostalgia for a clean wind's kiss
[Chorus]
Bm F#m7 Bm
Ain't it a shame
F#m7 Bm F#m7
Ain't it a shame
