Standard (EADGBE)

im a live wire, im a shortwave radio, do you copy?

im a flash of light from the radar tower to the runway

if i leave you im gonna do it semi-automatically

do you blame me?

(VERSE 2)

you are so far out there in the static, hey, baby, am i coming through?

i am up above the buildings, i can see forever out the window of a hotel room

i spent a long night with a stranger i give my body to

still i miss you

(BRIDGE)

still i never knew a love so tender

were out behind your astro van

and youve got me up against the fender

you are the cosmic american man

(REPEAT VERSE 1)

im a live wire, im a shortwave radio, do you copy?

im a flash of light from the radar tower to the runway

if i leave you im gonna do it semi-automatically

do you blame me?
