[Verse 1]
G            Em              Bm
The sergeant says you got to turn 
down the lights
         Bm                        
It's the things you keep concealed 
              Em          C
that make you safe in the night
        Am          D
Not the stars
G            Em                   
The sergeant says that if there's 
Bm
room at the top
         Bm                        
He'll be sure to let you through to
          Em                 C
 give the things that you've got
       Am           D
If you fit


[Chorus 1]
G                    C
We've been living on air, oh yeah
G                    C       D
We've been living on air, oh yeah

[Verse 2]
G            Em                  
The sergeant says that if you're 
Bm
nearing the phone
         Bm                        
Will you kindly check transmission 
       Em          C
as the metres have gone
       Am            D
Out of phase
G        Em               
And I suggest that if you're 
   Bm
thinking of her
         Bm                        
Then the best thing you can do is 
     Em         C
to forget she exists
        Am          D
And get on

[Chorus 2]
G                     C
You've been living on air, oh yeah

G                     C
You've been living on air

[Verse 3]
Am                   Em
And she lives in her block of flats
      Am            Em
She's always on her own
  Am            Em
I try to get in touch with her
    Am               Em
But she's not on the phone
    Am            Em
And every path in you you lead
   Am              Em
Is never where you are
    Am               Em
The stars that blow into the night
    Am         Em
Are never very far
         Am       Em          D  
And so I play the game of the 
     Em
gone insane
        Am          D         Em
And the never-never-never-can-tells
      Am     Em             D    
And I try my best to get on 
      Em
through the test
       Am          D         Em
Of the never-never-never-can-tells

[Chorus 3]
G            C
I'm becoming aware, oh yeah
G            C         D
I'm becoming aware, oh yeah

[Verse 4]
G          Em           Bm
So this may well be the last song I 
write
        Bm                         
Cause I can't touch the truth when 
    Em               C
the words don't seem right
         Am           D
Well who cares
G           Em         Bm
I leave you now with a silent salute
       Bm                          
To the man dressed in armor who has
 Em          C
 stolen your youth
         Am            D
And your charm

[Chorus 4]
G                    C
We've been living on air, oh yeah
G                    C
We've been living on air

[Verse 5]
Am                 Em
And one day I will find a way
Am                 Em
To save her from a plight
Am                 Em
It may well take a million years
Am                   Em
But she will see the light
Am                 Em       
Because I've had enough of the 
   D       Em
hootchie-coo
Am                  D         Em
And the never-never-never-can-tells
Am             Em          D    Em
Yeah I'm going back to the human zoo
Am                    D           
To see if animals are relatives of
 Em
 mine
Am                    D           
To see if animals are relatives of
 Em
 mine
Am                    D          
To see if animals are relatives, 
   Am          D             Em  
if animals are relatives, if 
        D            Em
animals are relatives of mine
