B                                     E
Dogs eyes, in the headlights of the driveway
B            E
Cool autumn rain
B                                      E
Bugs died on your windshield on the freeway
 B           A           E   F#m G        A
Wonder if you'll be the same centuries flower

Chorus:
        B             E
And we have the same power
    B             E
We have the same power
    B             E
We have the same power
    B             E
We have the same power

Moth flies in the window of the kitchen
You hang up your coat
Cold lips and gold eyes listen
There's something that I want you to know
Turn on the shower

Chorus:
'Cause we have the same power
We have the same power
We have the same power
We have the same power

No resolution, no circling dove
Still caught in the jaw of confusion
Don't know what I'd do for love
But stay another hour

Chorus:
'Cause we have the same power
We have the same power
We have the same power
We have the same power
