What's The Frequency, Kenneth? R.E.M
[A]"What's the [D]frequency, [Bm]Kenneth?" is your [G]Benzedrine, uh-[A]huh[D] [A] [G]

[G]Tunnel vision from the [A]outsider's screen
[D]I never [A]understood [D]the fre[G]quency, uh[A]-huh[A] [G] [A]
[D]You wore our [A]expectations like an [D]armored [G]suit, uh-[A]huh[A] [G] [A] [D]

Richard said, "Withdrawal in disgust is not the same as apathy"
[G]A smile like the cartoon, [A]tooth for a tooth

[D]You wore a [A]shirt of [D]violent [G]green, uh-[A]huh[A] [G] [A]
[D]I never [A]understood [D]the fre[G]quency, uh-[A]huh[A] [G] [A]
