verse 1 

Am  
Peace sign on the window 
G        Am 
Japanese car 
F        E            Dm 
You will remember the pap on the radio 
F          C            E              F 
Big blue policeman says stay where you are 
C                      E 
Surrender your Chinese arms, Oh-oh-oh 

verse 2 
Am 
Rock show Romeo 
G               Am 
Black and white shoes 
C                   E 
Strawberry haircut, in fist-pumping prime 
F              C         E                 F 
Scrape off the dross and keep what you can use  
   C                       E 
And leave the weaker ones behind, oh-oh 

Chorus 
     Dm              Bb       C 
They step outside to step out slow   
                Dm               Bb       C 
In vain trying to find a hole they can?t outgrow 
               C 
They evolve in time    
  Gm    
Wind finely on the vine 
F                                C 
Climbing toward the spots in the sun 
             C 
An unwelcome fate 
    Gm     
May ferry all away 
    F 
But cold comfort flowers 
               C 
Will bloom and decay

verse 3 
Am 
Pink clouds, summer sorrow 
G         Dm 
Oceanside swells  
  F              C 
If you don?t feel pretty 
          E 
With your face in the tide 
      F            C         E       F 
Well, file your complaint in weary detail 
    C                          E 
And tell the little people you tried Oh-oh 

Chorus 
      
     Dm              Bb       C 
They step outside to step out slow  
                 Dm               Bb       C 
In vain trying to find a hole they can?t outgrow 
               C 
They evolve in time 
     Gm    
Wind finely on the vine 
F                                C 
Climbing toward the spots in the sun 
             C 
An unwelcome fate  
   Gm     
May ferry all away 
    F 
But cold comfort flowers 
                 C 
Will blossom and fade
