Can’t Stop Chords, Guitar Tab, & Lyrics - Red Hot Chili Peppers

[Verse]
Em
Can't stop addicted to the shindig 
D
Chop top he says I'm gonna win big 
Bm
Choose not a life of imitation 
C
Distant cousin to the reservation 
Em
Defunct the pistol that you pay for 
D
This punk the feeling that you stay for 
Bm
In time I want to be your best friend 
C
Eastside love is living on the westend 
Em
Knocked out but boy you better come to 
D
Don't die you know the truth as some do 
Bm
Go write your message on the pavement 
C
Burn so bright I wonder what the wave meant 
Em
White heat is screaming in the jungle 
D
Complete the motion if you stumble 
Bm
Go ask the dust for any answers 
C
Come back strong with 50 belly dancers 
 
[Chorus]
     G
The world I love 
     D
The tears I've dropped 
   Bm
To be part of 
     C
the wave can't stop 
G           D        Bm      C
Ever wonder if it's all for you
     G
The world I love 
      D
The trains I hop 
   Bm
To be part of 
     C
The wave can't stop 
 G                 D         Bm C
Come and tell me when it's time to 
 
[Verse]
Em
Sweetheart is bleeding in the snowcone 
D
So smart she's leading me to ozone 
Bm
Music the great communicator 
C
Use two sticks to make it in the nature 
Em
I'll get you into penetration 
D
The gender of a generation 
Bm
The birth of every other nation 
C
Worth your weight the gold of meditation 
Em
This chapter's going to be a close one 
D
Smoke rings I know you're going to blow one 
Bm
All on a spaceship persevering 
C
Use my hands for everything but steering 
Em
Can't stop the spirits when they need you 
D
Mop tops are happy when they feed you 
Bm
Jay butterfly is in the treetop 
C
Birds that blow the meaning into bebop
 
[Chorus]
     G
The world I love 
     D
The tears I've dropped 
   Bm
To be part of 
     C
the wave can't stop 
G           D        Bm      C
Ever wonder if it's all for you
     G
The world I love 
      D
The trains I hop 
   Bm
To be part of 
     C
The wave can't stop 
 G                 D         Bm C
Come and tell me when it's time to
 
[Interlude]
Em                 D                   Bm              C

Em                       D              Bm             C
Far more shockin' than anything I ever knew, how 'bout you 
Em                D                  Bm             C
Ten more reasons why I need somebody new, just like you 
Em                       D              Bm             C
Far more shockin' than anything I ever knew, right on cue
