The intro is completely N.C. in the original song.
[Intro]
D D
I lay awake in bed, I don't know how I got here
D N.C.
There's knocking on the door - 1-2-3-4
D (x4)
[Verse 1]
D D
It's quite a bloody mess in here and no one feels responsible
D D
The fragmentation of ourselves, nah, don't be so sensible
Em G D D
You know they built on sand but they call it an empire
D D
So much for cleaning up now, the middle class is fading
D D
Those friends in higher places are deceptive clowns parading
Em G D D
The cocaine cowboys and the wall street vampires
[Chorus 1]
Bm
And I say:
G D F#m Bm
White noize, white noize - come and lull me into my sleep
G D D
White noize, beautiful white noize
[Verse 2]
D D
Who distributes the migrants, who talks about the crisis
D D
New faces to the cabinet, let's see how thick the ice is
Em G D D
Testing distant waters, quietly behind the scenes
D Daug
My arm is growing tired, of waving the white flag
D Daug
And now there's nothing left to light, just filters of old fags
Em G D D
The prime minister's driving in a long black limousine
[Chorus 2]
Bm
And I say:
G D F#m Bm
White noize, white noize - come and lull me into my sleep
G D F#m Bm
White noize, beautiful white noize - tonight I don't care if I'm a creep
G D F#m Bm
White noize, white noize - is the quiet before the storm
G D D
White noize, beautiful white noize
[Bridge]
Bm G D D
And the world goes - tweet tweet, tweet tweet, tweet tweet, tweet tweet, yeah
Bm G D D
And the birds go - tweet, tweet tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet tweet, yeah
Em G Em
In a room without a roof - I'm staring at the ceiling
G D D
In times like these they don't care about how we're feeling
[Chorus 3]
Bm
And I say:
G D F#m Bm
White noize, white noize - come and lull me into my sleep
G D F#m Bm
White noize, beautiful white noize - tonight I don't care if I'm a creep
G D F#m Bm
White noize, white noize - comes the morning comes a time to reap
G D D
White noize, beautiful white noize
[Outro]
D (x4)
D Daug
There's no one left to talk to, and no one wants to listen
D Daug
How can we right a wrong when all they do is reminiscing
Em G D D
Free speech echoes, echoes from the wall
Em G D
I lean back in my camp chair, waiting until they fall
