\beginverse
It started in base\[Fa#]ments
\[Si] And it started in \[Fa#]sheds
It started in back\[Fa#]yards
\[Si] And was hidden under \[Fa#]beds
\endverse
\beginverse*
\[Mi] I turned on the TV
\[Si] Don't believe a word they \[Fa#]say
\[Mi] We can't stay here now love
\[Si] And we can't get away \[Fa#]
\endverse
\beginchorus
\[Si] There's a riot on \[Fa#]sunset
\[Si] And fires burn in the \[Fa#]park
\[Si] The sun has \[Fa#]set my friend
\[Si] And California's dark \[La Fa#]
\endchorus
\beginverse
And over the screaming
I heard a clear voice
I looked at my choices
And I made a choice
\endverse
\beginverse*
Smoke and ashes
Tonight hide the stars
The stop lights are red now, love
We've come for what's ours
\endverse
\musicnote{power chords}
\beginverse
Come stand among the rattlesnakes
At the side of the desert road
And close your eyes and listen
To the music hard and cold
\endverse
\beginverse*
Tonight the moon is blackened
Tonight the doors are shut
Behind the shuttered windows
We pray the sun will come up
\endverse
\musicnote{standard chords}
\beginverse
For something walks across these fields
For which there is no name
You might have heard different
But I was there when it came
\endverse
\beginverse*
It will start with a spark
And a great fire will grow
Don't know how I know it
But I just know
\endverse
\beginchorus
There's a riot on sunset
And fires burn in the park
The sun sets everywhere
And the whole damn country's dark
\endchorus
\beginchorus
There's a riot on Sunset
And fires burn in the park
The sun has set my friend
And California's dark
\endchorus
