Note: trying to breakdown the finger picking open stuff into chords is a challenge. Bare with me.

[verse 1]
Gmaj7/D
The sound of broadcast voices in the air
Gmaj7/A                              Gmaj7/D
Seeps through the screens of kitchen doors
Gmaj7/D
Windows flash the TV on the lawn
Gmaj7/A                        Gmaj7/D
I can see and hear it all from here
G/B           G              Gmaj7/D
Everything is how it usually is
A7     Bm7/A     A7           Gmaj7/A  Gmaj7/D             
In the blue-eyed houses of our neighborhood


[verse 2]
Gmaj7/D
Information rides on frequencies
Gmaj7/A                                 Gmaj7/D
The air is full of things that we can’t see
Gmaj7/D
When I crash my cars by remote control
Gmaj7/A                         Gmaj7/D
No one knows how far the signal goes
G/B           G              Gmaj7/D
Everything is how it usually is
A7     Bm7/A     A7           Gmaj7/A  Gmaj7/D 
In the blue-eyed houses of our neighborhood


[bridge]
             em
The speed of sound
     em/C              em/C#    em/C
One thousand miles per second
em     em/C             em/C#   em/C
That’s five seconds per mile
     G                 Bm            Em              D
When lightning flashes shadows on my bedroom wall
    Cm
The countdown starts
G                 G/F               Bb6add9                        arp. [F-E-Bb]  [F#-E-A] G
One one thousand, two one thousand, keep on counting, keep on counting
   [Bb-E-Bb]                             G
It feels like the thunder is looking for me.


[verse 3]
Gmaj7/D
We let these things into our homes
Gmaj7/A                               Gmaj7/D
Even though the windows and doors are locked
Gmaj7/D
And when we feel like we’re alone
Gmaj7/A                                   Gmaj7/D
Something’s there to remind us that we’re not
G/B           G              Gmaj7/D
Everything is different than it was
A7     Bm7/A     A7           Gmaj7/A  Gmaj7/D 
In the blue-eyed houses of my neighborhood
G/B      G                Gmaj7/D
Nobody’s acting like they should
A7     Bm7/A     A7           Gmaj7/A  Gmaj7/D 
In the blue-eyed houses of my neighborhood
A7     Bm7/A     A7           Gmaj7/A  Gmaj7/D 
In the blue-eyed houses of my neighborhood
