  			        C                   G 
Let the smoke in fill your lungs, 
                           C             G 
You've been living like a jukebox out of songs, 
         C                 G 
From the day that you were born, 
    C    G 
In 1991. 
       F C 
Your Safari, 
             F C 
Build your Safari. 

           C            G 
There's a trophy deep inside, 
                     C           G 
We were living in a festival of lights, 
               C                 G 
But I bet most angels don't stay dry, 
                  C       G 
And haunted every night. 
      
      C                                G 
Let's get dressed up in colours that nobody has invented, 
C                                     G           
Inject yourself with the medicine in places unexpected, 
    C 
And run your tongue down the second hand,  
           G                          C      G 
Leave your metronome and catalogue behind. 

           F   C 
On your Safari, 
             F  C 
Build your Safari, 
           F    C 
Life's a Safari, 
                 F (Hold F) 
We'll take it so far.
