4/4
G
The sun struggles up another beautiful day
Em Am
And I felt glad in my own suspicious way
G C G Cm
Yeah (yeah) yeah (yeah) yeah (yeah) yeah (yeah)
G Em Am
Despite the contradiction and confusion
D C
Felt tragic without reason
D
There's malice and there's magic in every season
CHORUS
G F Em Cm/Eb
>From the foaming breakers of the poisonous surf
G Em Am D
The other side of Summer
G F Em Cm/Eb
To the burning forests in the hills of Astroturf
G D Am G
The other side of Summer
G D Am G
Dm Bb A7
The automatic gates close up between the shanties and the palace
Dm Bb A7
The blowtorch amusements, the voodoo chalice
Dm Bb A7
The pale pathetic promises that everybody swallows
Dm A7 Dm (B C B A D) D
A teenage girl is crying 'cos she don't look like a million dollars
(B C B A D) D
So help her if you can
(B C B A D) D
'Cos she don't seem to have the attention span
CHORUS
Dm Bb A7
Was it a millionaire who said "imagine no possessions"?
Dm Bb A7
A poor little schoolboy who said "we don't need no lessons"?
Dm Bb A7
The rabid rebel dogs ransack the shampoo shop
Dm A7 Dm
The pop princess is downtown shooting up
(B C B A D) D
And if that goddess
(B C B A D) D
is fit for burning
(B C B A D) D
The sun will struggle up the world will still keep turning
G
Madman standing by the side of the road saying
Em Am
"Look at my eyes, look at my eyes, look at my eyes, look at my eyes"
G C G Cm
Yeah (yeah) yeah (yeah) yeah (yeah) yeah (yeah)
G Em Am D C
Now you can't afford to fake all the drugs your parents used to take
D
Because of their mistakes you'd better be wide awake
CHORUS
G F
The mightiest rose
Em Cm/Eb
The absence of perfume
G Em
The casual killers
Am D
The military curfew
G F
The cardboard city
Em Cm/Eb
And an unwanted birthday
G Em Am G
The other side of summer
G F Em Cm/Eb
The dancing was desperate and the music was worse
G Em Am D
They bury your dreams and dig up the worthless
G F
Goodnight, God bless
Em Cm/Eb
And kiss "goodbye" to the earth
G Em Am G
The other side of summer
(repeat last line)
