Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

The streets are lined with camera crews

 Everywhere he goes is news

Today is different

Today is not the same

Today I make the action

 Take snapshot into the light, snapshot into the light (twice)

 Im shooting into the light

Four miles down the cavalcade moves on

Driving into the sun

If I worked it out right

They wont see me or the gun

Two miles to go, theyre clearing the road

 The cheering has really begun

Ive got my radio

I can hear whats going on

Ive been waiting for this

I have been waiting for this

All you people in tv land

I will wake up your empty shells

Peak-time viewing blown in a flash

As I burn into your memory cells

cos Im alive

This part (I've been waiting for this...) can be played this way:

Holding my breath

Release the catch

And I let the bullet fly

All turned quiet-i have been here before

Lonely boy hiding behind the front door

 Friends have all gone home

 Theres my toy gun on the floor

 Come back mum and dad

Youre growing apart

 You know that Im growing up sad

 I need some attention

 I shoot into the light
