[Intro 1]
[G]
[F#m][D][G][F#m][D]
[G][Em][A]

[Verse 1]
[G]Meet me [A]on
the waste[D]lands - later this day
[G]We'll sit and [A]talk and [D]hold hands maybe
[Em]For there's [G]not much e[A]lse to d[D]o in this drab
and [G]colorless [F#m]place[D][G][A][D]
[A]
[G]We'll sit among[A]st the
rub[D]ber tires
Amongst the [G]discarded bric-a-brac
[A]People Peo[D]ple People have no use[A] for - amon[G]gst
the smol[A]dering em[D]bers of yester[Em]day[A]

[Verse 2]
And [F#m]when o[G]r if the sun s[A]hines
Lighting our [G]once [F#m]beautiful
features
[C#]We'll smile but only [D]for seconds
For to be [G]caught smiling is to
ac[A]knowledge life
[G]A brave but useless show
[F#m]of compassion
And [C#]that is forbidden in this [D]drab and color
[Em]less world

[Interlude 1]
[A][G][F#m][G]
[F#m][G][Em][A]

[Verse 3]
[G]Meet me [A]on the waste[D]lands
- the ones behind
[G]The old houses [A]- the ones
- left [D]standing pre-war
[Em]The The ones[G] overshadowed [A]by
[D]the monolith monstrosities
[G]Councils call [F#m]homes
[D][G][Esus4][Em]

[Verse 4]
[A]
And [G]there among[A]st the
[D]shit - the dirty linen
The [G]holy Coca-Cola [A]tins -
[D]the punctured footballs
The [G]ragged dolls - the
[A]rusting bi[D]cycles
We'll sit and [G]probably
hold [F#m]hands[D]

[Verse 5]
And [G]watch the rain fall
[D]- watch it - watch it
[G]Tumble and fall [D]- tumble and falling
[F#m]Like o[G]ur lives [D]- like our lives
[Em]Just like [A]our lives

[Verse 6]
[A]We'll [G]talk [Asus4]about the[A] old[D] days
When the wasteland [A]was re
[G]lease when we [A]could play
[D]And think - without fee[G]ling gui[A]lty
Meet [D]me later but we'll [G]have
to hold [F#m]hands[D][F#m]
[G]Tumble and fall [F#m]- tumble [D]and falling
[G]Like our [D]lives - like our [F#m]lives
[D]Exact[Em]ly like our[A] lives
[D]
