Played with electric guitar with slight gain
* = palm mute
~ = let ring

	     
You board an airplane

Take your seat and watch as
		
All the seasons they change
     
In a wave of your hand

	    
And all the boys gasp

Stand on legs that shake shake
	      
They all want inside you
		 
They all want to wear your clothes

	      
And it's just motion
	            
Yes everybody knows it
	      
And it's just motion
	            
Yes everybody knows it

    		     
And I wish you would close your eyes
    			      
Pay attention to the sound of our blood
	   		  
Beacuse it seems with the birds outside
	
Who are telling us

	     
Oh, don't be afraid
		    
Oh yeah we won't be afraid
		    
Oh yeah we won't be afraid
		    
Oh yeah we won't be afraid
		    
Oh yeah we won't be afraid

	    
Oh yeah the room's full
		  
All these dancing bodies
		      
All this flesh you're touching
	     
And still it don't mean a thing

	    *
And all the mouths move

All the lips of red red
	    *
They do all this talking
		   *
But nothing's ever really said

	       
And yeah, it's backwards
	            
Yes everybody knows it
	      
And it's just backwards
	            
Yes everybody knows it

    		     
And I wish you would close your eyes
    			      
Pay attention to the sound of our blood
	   
Because it seems
	 
With the birds outside
	
Who are telling us
	     
Oh, don't be afraid

    
Now you're shaking the hands

Each one so cold
  
A symptom of the yearly toll
     
It's just the flu
		      
Yeah, it's been going around

       
And do you believe in rock and roll?
    
Can music come and save your soul?
  
I don't think so
			   
Because you're dancing too slow
			   
Oh yeah you're dancing too slow
			   
Oh yeah you're dancing too slow
			   
Oh yeah you're dancing too slow
			   
Oh yeah you're dancing too slow
