Verse:
E C#m B E C#m B
Lala la la la la la la lala La la la la la
E C#m B E B (riff)
Lala la la la la la la lala laaaa
E C#m B E C#m B
Well I donât care your cameras caught me crying as I left your gates
E C#m B E B
Or that your maintenance men they caught our last embrace
E C#m B E C#m B
Well you were on the verge of tears when I first knew I would know you
E G# C#m Am B
And now your ancient black tears they stain your robe
E C#m B E C#m B
Calypso will come with me on that morning April day
E C#m B E B (riff)
To the city of my childhood in a cage
E C#m B E C#m B
On the broad back of the earth we will drive twelve hours straight
E G# C#m Am B
And weâll take turns feeling crazy and okay
Chorus:
Am E F# E
On May Day, May Day listen for the sound
Am E B
Of the ambulances singing rounds down the avenue
E C#m B E C#m B
Well the Captain of America he sings through his toothpaste
E C#m B E B (riff)
And the bubbles of his words will float away
E C#m B E C#m B
As he gargles out a hymn in the funny fish voice way
E G# C#m Am B
And all the sorrow seems to go away
Am E F# E
On May Day, May Day listen for the sound
Am E B
Of the Geiger counters counting down
Bridge:
E C#m G# E C#m G#
To one and blast off baby to the inter-space of stars
E C#m G# B
Out to the star encrusted boulevard...
Guitar Solo

Am E F# E
On May Day, May Day can you hear the sound
Am E B
Of the megaphones calling out instructions
E C#m B E C#m B
And I need your quiet empire where forgetful Persians roam
E C#m B E B (riff)
And with two hands full of silver Iâll go home
E C#m B E C#m B
Return me to my kingdom where my children wait for me
E G# C#m Am B
To build them flying saucers on black sea
Am E F# E
On May Day, May Day they are going down
Am E B
Send the fleet of black-and-whites wailing downtown
E C#m B E C#m B
Lala la la la la la la lala La la la la la
E C#m B E B
Lala la la la la la la lala laaaa
