[Verse 1]
Am             C                      G
    The  blue  bus   had some windows crashed
             Em
And a tiger  skin...
Am            C                      G
    And  the  road    had nothing to show
                 Em
But some twisted poles...
Am          C                 G
    Sud-den-ly   a sad ur-ban grid
                 Em
Brought me up to date...
Am           C                       G
    Ho-ping  for    something like a town
             Am
That I never found....

   Some of them haaaaave   aerials  white and round

[Verse 2]
Am             C                     G
    Plea-sant  mess   at the market  place
                  Em
Near the Buddhist door...
Am            C                       G
    Cas-pian  songs    fill the candy stall
               Em
Planted on the shore...
Am           C                      G
    Ru-sian  saves    money because he
                 Em
Wants to live in spain...
Am             C                     G
    From  his  room    I can see the bus
                 Em
Leaving  full of pain...


[Bridge 2]
Bm*      E*         G*                   F#*
   And   now   when darkness  takes  the floor,
Bm*      E*         G*              F#*
   Wild  dog   will show up  on the road
Bm*               E*        G*               F#*
   They come head wiiiing    they move their steamy nose
Bm*             E*            G*               F#*
   When they are here   you'll feel them by the door...
