This is a very nice song from the Oils. The chord chart given down
there for the verses is a transcription of the piano part.
The guitar actually only plays a few arpeggios on the basis of
these chords.
Intro part
The intro is made of two patterns, only changing the bass note.
Let ring and listen to the CD to get the rythm right.
The structure is the following :
Pattern A (4 times)
Patten B
Pattern A (twice)
Pattern B
Pattern A (twice)
Then into the first verse...

B-II--------------0--------I---------0--------------

D-II------------------4---I---------------4--------
A-II----------------------I------------------------
E-II-----0----------------I------2----------------

Verse 1
I'm gonna wait for the moment to come
B C#m Csus2 C#mI'm gonna wait till we all stop from running
A E B7 B7Boxed in like candles, polar bear pride
Turning to terror as the script is read out
B B7 B7 C#m AUnwilling actors accomplished protractors will shout
B C#m Csus2 C#mI'm gonna wait till we reach the sky
Tin legs and tin mines, anyone cries
A E B7 B7Cry in the hope that there'll be tomorrow
A EWaiting around there must be a time
Time to start thinking and working it out
C#m A Bm (G)Come with me now, try with me now, when I'm laughing
Chorus
Who's running the world today
Who's running the world today
