She looked up in the noonday sun
                F#m      Asus       E
Said, "Fighter jets are so unreal"
                 F#m       Asus     E
But we've got a job to be done
Come on

E
     F#m    Asus       E
When I was just a boy
           F#m          Asus             E
I saw the kings of the big gold cities
             F#m     Asus          E
But as they died I dried up inside
Let's ride

E
              F#m                  A
Let's ride on airplanes and buses
                  Bm       A       E
Let's ride to the end of the line
               F#m              A
Let's ride on fast motorcycles
                 Bm          A        E   F#m Asus
Let's leave the routines of living behind

E F#m Asus  x3

E
          F#m     Asus            E
We pulled into a tick-tock town
             F#m    Asus            E
and all the people looked so happy
          F#m         Asus            E
Another trip down the elephant slide
Let's ride

E
               F#m                 A
Let's ride on subways and steeples
                  Bm       A       E
Let's ride to the end of the line
                F#m                     A
Let's ride on prescriptions and bottles
                 Bm          A        E   F#m Asus
Let's leave the routines of living behind

E F#m Asus  x3

E
              F#m                  A
Let's ride on airplanes and buses
                  Bm       A       E
Let's ride to the end of the line
               F#m              A
Let's ride on fast motorcycles
                 Bm          A        E   F#m Asus
Let's leave the routines of living behind

E F#m Asus  -to the end-
