Thomas Dolby - Airwaves Chords

[Intro]
G  G(b5)  G
G  G(b5)  G
F  F(b5)  F
Am      E
 
[Verse 1]
                 C           E
Strange how the scale forms
         C           A7M
In tiny patterns
         C
On my antenna
        D                  E
And The Five O'Clock Show, hello hello
             C        E              C       A7M
Brooklyn is crawling     with famous people
           C         D               A
I turn my vehicle beneath the river, west from south
 
[Chorus]
            F#m
Through the airwaves
F            G        C
People never read the airwaves
F           G       A
Do we only feed the airwaves
   F                  G               C#m C#sus2 C#m C#m7 D    E
I really should have seen through the air -------------- waves
 
[Verse 2]
          C     E               C      A7M
Electric fences   line our new freeway
             C              D                  E
Here in the half-light, the motor homes leave, hey-oh, hey-oh
             C      E           C       A7M
Knee-deep in water     under a pylon
           Cadd9  C
How slow my heartbeat
    D6       D        A
How thin the air I'm breathing in
 
[Chorus]
            F#m
Through the airwaves
F            G        C
People never read the airwaves
F           G       A
Do we only feed the airwaves
   F                  G            F#m
Or stamp them out at street level? Airwaves
     F               G        C
The dampness of the wind, the airwaves
     F              G         A
The tension of the skin, the airwaves
F    G
oooooooh
 
[Bridge]
    A               B
Control has enabled   the abandoned wires again
    A                    B
But   the copper cables     all rust in the acid rain
A                           B
  That flood the subway with   elements of our corrosion
G                     G
Cabled in to me, yeah cable them to me
F                E
Cable them    to me
 
[Verse 3]
          C        E               C      A7M
Be in my broadcast    when this is over
              C
Give me your shoulder
   D              E
I need a place to wait for morning
          C       E               C       A7M
No it was nothing,   some car backfiring
                  C
Please don't ask questions
  D               A
I itch all over, let me sleep
 
 
[Chorus]
            F#m
Through the airwaves
F            G        C
People never read the airwaves
F           G       A
Do we only feed the airwaves
   F                  G            F#m
Or stamp them out at street level? Airwaves
     F               G        C
The dampness of the wind, the airwaves
     F              G         A
The tension of the skin, the airwaves
   F                  G               F#m
I really should have seen through the airwaves
F            G        C
People never read the airwaves
F           G       A
Do we only feed the airwaves
   F                  G            F#m
Or stamp them out at street level? Airwaves
     F               G        C
The dampness of the wind, the airwaves
     F              G         A
The tension of the skin, the airwaves
   F                  G               F#m
I really should have seen through the airwaves
F            G        C
People never read the airwaves
F           G       A
Do we only feed the airwaves
F    G                 F#m
Oooooooh,  through the airwaves
     F               G        C
The dampness of the wind, the airwaves
     F              G         A
The tension of the skin, the airwaves
   F                  G               C#m C#sus2 C#m C#m7 D
I really should have seen through the air -------------- waves
