[E]
I'm walking,
[Em] [E]
[B] reaching a [E] belly of junk by the river my head extends.
Fade from the trash, I come out the deep with my own bare hands.
Every [B] night, like a fish [E] tank, [C#m] I turn to what [E] else is there.
[B] Putting the air heater up, [E] so I [Em] can go out on the air.
On the air.
[E] On the [A] air.
[B] [A] [E] [Em]
[B] Every [E] morning, I'm out of tongue with poor faceplants.
For silent communion, if I'm above, I will show a difference.
Every walk, I'm being on the street, [C#]
as if I [E] was meant.
I'm putting the air [B] heater up, [E] so I can go out on [C] the [Bm] air.
[C] [Bm] [E] On the air.
[F#m] [E] On the air.
[A] [A]
I'm in a car, down leafy lane, turning out Charles and the Mac Jungle Jane.
[F#] Anyone at all, could capture a zero, and stand a [F#m] super hero, [F#] standing by on call.
[D] Oh, [A] it's not easy.
[D] No, [A] it's not easy, [E] making me a case.
[Em]
[E]
For the kidney, a steak with milk voice, milk voice.
Half a life, I'm using white noise, white noise.
Under [B] power, a private [E] villa.
[C#m] My signal [E] goes out here, on everybody to know,
[C] Mozo, here.
[C] [E] On the air.
On the air.
[A] [B] On [A] the air.
