The song starts with the

D-----------

A----------- into Am

E----3(b)--

on the Am you start with "Asteroid crashed, and nothing burned."

D--------

A--------- into Fm

E----3(b)

on the Fm Trey sing "It made me wonder..." (i don't know what this G, Gm9 is all about)

Next you groove on F#m for the verse:

Do tigers sleep in lily patches?

Do rhinos run from thunder?

I got an ache in my left ear

I felt a twinge but I still could hear.

It made me think I would not be burned,

but rather give myself to

on "to science" you move down to F and you have:

 F G Ab Am

To science, i felt that i could help

D-----------

A----------- into Am

E----3(b)--

on the Am: "Paranoid the doctor ran"

D-----------

A----------- into Fm

E----3(b)--

on the Fm: "Shouting his graphic translation"

Then you continue with F#m for the second verse:

All out of order

Gang wars and ails of riches,

Spewing forth their color

He purposely waited till I was done

To knock on the lavatory door

Accusing me of ruining the fun,

F G Ab Am

He knocked on it some more

F G Ab Am

The fun, He knocked on it some more.

The A7, D7 jam

they go into 3/4 and drop into F#m. Then they

slide up to G#m,

E----3(b)--

"Alloyed suitors drawn inside"

D-----------

A----------- into Fm

E----3(b)--

"An apple or a grape"

F#m(3rd verse):

To put forth a cloud of Mercury

In front of a mighty car

On a freeway in Los Angeles

Once the spraying has been done'

Cause there's more pain from necessity

You're a portrait of your past,

There's a mummy in the cabinet.

Are there no more arrows left?

What's that rubber bottle doing here?

How's that napkin for a proof

Ten cents to a dollar now

For a shelf of pregnant ears

Robert Palmer is applauded

again, s'again, s'again

 F G Ab Am

So stupendous, living in this tube.
