Jukebox The Ghost – Beady Eyes On The Horizon chords

Chords:
Transpose:
My favourite song by my favourite band - I *think* this is almost correct.  
Standard tuning, no capo.  Please forgive any lyrical errors!

All chords should really be played as barre chords, but let's face it, those are 
uncomfortable and are really only necessary when a Cm or Gsus4 chord is coming up.

G Bm There's a dead man hanging,
C slumped over the steering wheel
G Bm C of an interstate runaway bursting into flames.
G BmAnd the devil was gently breathing,
C sleeping face-down in my apartment,
G Bm C and like all his friends I'm growing tired of his games.
G BmAnd there's a homeless man arranging his hands,
Em Cgrooving to the beat radiating from a police scanner.
G BmHe said "The air was feeling good to me,
Em Cas cool and ripe as air can be."
G BmAnd a woman who sincerely believes
Em Cin UFOs (UFOs) - you can blame her when the stars are hanging
G Bmoverhead, dangling by a thread,
Em Cmfloating ten thousand feet off the ground.
G BmThis was the story told to me
Em Cwhen I was just the age of seventeen;
G Bmone which God himself dictated to me,
C (staccato)He said, "This is how all this shit's gonna be,
G Bm Em Cwhen I blow your little planet into smithereens (smithereens)
G Bm Em C Blow your little planet into smithereens"
G BmIt haunted my dreams
Em Clike an accident on replay
G Bm Em C on a TV screen.
Cm G She sees faces in her dreams;
Em strange machines she'd never seen.
G Blueprints of submarines
Em to reassemble in a time of dire need (dire need).
G And there were preachers in the desert,
Em waving to the crowd,
G dictating seven angry letters
Em from a man up in the clouds
GAnd there were twenty-seven soldiers
Bmtelling twenty-seven lies,
Em and a hole inside a hurricane
Cmwith a pair of beady eyes.
G Gsus4A pair of beady eyes looking down
Em Cmonto the pavement while the stars are gathered 'round.
G Gsus4Because they all want a front seat when shit starts going down,
Em C (staccato) Cm-Cmbecause the Sun is just a supernova turned the other way around!
G Bm C G Bm C
G Bm There were strangers in the subway and men in limousines
Cmaking deals and swapping photographs of cans of gasoline.
G BmThere are no angels in the woodwork or devils on the ground;
CThey're looking through a hurricane's tectonic wall of sound.
G BmAnd the man who smokes his cigarettes the other way around
Cshe's looking in behind him from inside a wall of sound
G Bmand she is dancing with the neon 'cause the air is feeling good
C Cmagainst her arms and legs and fingertips are measuring the distance
G Bmin the spaces in between me and you and all your friends;
C Cmand there's no time to load a weapon; no time to make amends.
G BmAnd people frozen in their tracks stand staring at the sky,
C Cmat a hole inside a hurricane revealing...
CmA pair of beady eyes!
G Gsus4A pair of beady eyes looking down
Em Conto the pavement while the stars are gathered 'round.
G BmBecause they all want a front seat when shit starts going down,
Em Cmbecause the sun is just a supernova turned the other way around!
G (crazy piano solo)
G Cm-CmThis is not a test, this is the real thing...
G CmThis is not a test, this is the real thing.
