[Verse 1]
[G]Over the moutain, [C]down in [D]the valley
[G]Lives a f[C]ormer talk[D]-show host
[G]Everybody kno[C]ws his[D] name
[G][C][D]
He said, "There's [G]no doubt about [C]it[D]
It was the [G]myth of [C]finger[D]print
I've [G]seen them all and [C]man,
they're [D]all the [G]same"[C][D]

[Chorus 1]
Well, the [G]sun gets weary
And the [C]sun goes [G]down
Ever since the watermelon
And the lights come up
On the [C]black pit [G]town
Somebody says
"What's a better [C]thing to [G]do?"
Well, it's not just me
And it's [C]not just [G]you
This is [D]all a[C]round the wor[G]ld

[Verse 2]
[G]Out in the Indian [C]O cean s[D]omewhere
[G]There's a f[C]ormer army[D] post
A[G]bandoned now [C]just like [D]the war
[G][C][D]
And there's [G]no doubt about [C]it[D]
It was the [G]myth of [C]finger[D]print
I've [G]seen them all and [C]man,
they're [D]all the [G]same"[C][D]

[Chorus 2]
Well, the [G]sun gets bloody
And the [C]sun goes [G]down
Ever since the watermelon
And the lights come up
On the [C]black pit [G]town
Somebody says
"What's a better [C]thing to [G]do?"
Well, it's not just me
And it's [C]not just [G]you
This is [D]all a[C]round the wor[G]ld

[Verse 3]
[G]Over the moutain, [C]down in [D]the valley
[G]Lives a f[C]ormer talk[D]-show host
[G]Far and wide his[C] nam[D]e was kno[G]wn[C][D]
He said, "There's [G]no doubt about [C]it[D]
It was the [G]myth of [C]finger[D]print
[G]That's why we must lea[C]rn to liv[D]e alone"
[G][C][D]

[Outro 1]
[G]Woo, [C]woo[D][G][C][D]
[G]Woah, live on,[C] live on,[D] live on[G][C][D]
[G]Woo, [C]woo[D][G][C][D]
[G]Woah, live on,[C] live on,[D] live on[G][C][D]
All around the world
[G]Woo, [C]woo[D][G][C][D]
[G]Woah, live on,[C] live on,[D] live on[G][C][D]
All around the world
[Repeat and fade out]
