INTRO: D palm mute

D                                Bm
There’s a Mexican dead up on a power line
G                                    D
He’s deader than yesterday’s communion wine
D                                                A
He was trying to getting something he couldn’t afford for free
G                                     D           
He was just a poor man stealing electricity
               G               D
His heart when na na na na na na na
G                D(pick second string harder)

1st Bridge
G                          D
10,000 volts and now he’s gone 
A                                   D       C
He’s hanging on a cross-tire above Babylon
G                                   Bm
Hey baby ain’t that just like you and me
G                           D
Love is like stealing electricity
               G                D 
Two hearts go na na na na na na na
G                  D(pick second string harder)
na na na na na na na

When the poverty of your spirit and the weakness of your flesh
Go dancing every night through other people’s trash
You don’t love yourself baby, what the hell you’re doing with me
You’re gonna burn baby burn stealing electricity
Two hearts go na na na na na na na, na na na na na na na

We all climb so high in search of the kindred soul
Till we grab hold to a live wire up on a highline pole
The laws of nature say you get nothing for free
Love is like stealing Electricity
Two hearts go na na na na na na na, na na na na na na  na
