  It was a slow day

       |        C  D   
And the sun was beating

      |       C      D       C   D   | C 
On the soldiers by the side of the road

D            |
  There was a bright light

 |      C       D
A shattering of shop windows

   |   C      D    C 
The bomb in the baby carriage

D  |      C      D    |
Was wired to the radio


G                      |    C       D     |
  These are the days of miracle and wonder

G      C      D    C  D    |    C D |
  This is the long distance call

G                   |        C     D     |
  The way the camera follows us in slo-mo


G     C      D       C  D  | C D |
  The way we look to us all

G                     |        C     D
  The way we look to a distant constellation

      |G     C    D      C     |D  C D |
That's dying in a corner of the sky

G                      |    C       D
  These are the days of miracle and wonder

   |G        C   D   C     D   | C     D  |
And don't cry  baby, don't cry,  don't cry

D         |
  It was a dry wind

      |       C         D   
And it swept across the desert

      |       C      D      C  D    | C 
And it curled into the circle of birth

D        |       |
  And the dead sand

        C      D
Falling on the children

   |      C       D     
The mothers and the fathers

C   D  |    C     D    |
And the automatic earth



G                      |    C       D     |
  These are the days of miracle and wonder

G      C      D    C  D    |    C D |
  This is the long distance call

G                   |        C     D     |
  The way the camera follows us in slo-mo


G     C      D       C  D  | C D |
  The way we look to us all

G                     |        C     D
  The way we look to a distant constellation

      |G     C    D      C     |D  C D |
That's dying in a corner of the sky

G                      |    C       D
  These are the days of miracle and wonder

D       |
  It's a turn-around jump shot

    |     C    D   
It's everybody jump start

    |    C    D     C      D|     C      D         |
It's every generation throws a hero up the pop charts

                     |    C      D
Medicine is magical and magical is art

   |  C      D     
The Boy in the Bubble

C      |D    C        D           
And the baby with the baboon heart


             |
And I believe

G                      |       C      D     |
  These are the days of lasers in the jungle

G      C      D      C   D|  C D |
Lasers in the jungle some--where

G                    |         C    D     
  Staccato signals of constant information

 |G       C   D     C  D |              C     D              |
A loose affiliation of millionaires and billionaires and baby

G                      |    C       D     |
  These are the days of miracle and wonder

G      C      D    C  D    |    C D |
  This is the long distance call

G                   |        C     D     |
  The way the camera follows us in slo-mo

G  C        D       C |D    C  D   |
The  way we look to us all, oh yeah

G                     |        C     D
  The way we look to a distant constellation

      |G     C    D      C     |D  C D |
That's dying in a corner of the sky

G                      |    C       D
  These are the days of miracle and wonder

Don't cry
