\beginverse
It started in base\[F#]ments
\[B] And it started in \[F#]sheds
It started in back\[F#]yards
\[B] And was hidden under \[F#]beds
\endverse
\beginverse*
\[E] I turned on the TV
\[B] Don't believe a word they \[F#]say
\[E] We can't stay here now love
\[B] And we can't get away \[F#]
\endverse
\beginchorus
\[B] There's a riot on \[F#]sunset
\[B] And fires burn in the \[F#]park
\[B] The sun has \[F#]set my friend
\[B] And California's dark \[A F#]
\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

\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
