Verse 1 

Am                       G 
From the mountain tops down to the sunny street, 
G13                            F        E7 
A different drum is playing a different kind of beat. 
Am                   G 
It's like a mystery that never ends, 
Ebdm         F#dim      Adim               E7 
I see you crying and I want to kill your friends. 
Chorus 
Amaj7                           F#m 
I hear your footsteps in the street, 
                           Bm  Bm aug 
It won't be long before we meet, 
  Bm7    E7 
It's obvious. 
Amaj7                           Fm 
Just count me in and count me out and 
                         Bm  Bm aug 
I'll be waiting for the shout, 
Bm7      E7 
Oblivious...
 
Verse 2
 
Am                      G 
Met Mo and she's okay, said no one really changed, 

G13                            F                  E7 
Got different badges but they wear them just the same. 
Am                       G                Ebdim      F#dim 
But down by the ballroom I recognized that flaming fountain 
          Adim           E7        
In those kindred caring eyes. 

 
Amaj7                           F#m 
I hear your footsteps in the street, 
                           Bm  Bm  
It won't be long before we meet, 
  Bm7    E7 
It's obvious. 
Amaj7                           Fm 
Just count me in and count me out and 
                         Bm  Bm  
I'll be waiting for the shout, 
Bm7      E7 
Oblivious... 

  Fmaj7                         Cmaj7 
I hope it haunts me 'til I'm hopeless, 
Gmaj7                        Dmaj7 
I hope it hits you when you go, 
Amaj7                          Bmaj7 
And sometimes on the edge of sleeping 
F                      E7 
It rises up to let me know it's not so deep, 
             Am  
I'm not so slow. 


Amaj7                           F#m 
I hear your footsteps in the street, 
                           Bm  Bm aug 
It won't be long before we meet, 
  Bm7    E7 
It's obvious. 
Amaj7                           Fm 
Just count me in and count me out and 
                         Bm  Bm  
I'll be waiting for the shout,

Oblivious...
 
Verse 3
 
Am                               G 
They're calling all the shots, they'll call and say they phoned, 
G13                                 F          E7 
They'll call us lonely when we're really just alone. 
Am                    G 
And like a funny film, it's kinda cute 

They've bought the bullets and there's no one left to shoot. 

 
Amaj7                           F#m 
I hear your footsteps in the street, 
                           Bm  Bm aug 
It won't be long before we meet, 
  Bm7    E7 
It's obvious. 
Amaj7                           Fm 
Just count me in and count me out and 
                         Bm  Bm  
I'll be waiting for the shout, 
Bm7      E7 
Oblivious...
