A great song from their unpublished album: Junkyard Chandelier.
Like with most Radical face songs the guitar is tuned down half a step. 
No Capo.
Intro:   |  C|  G   F|
My Cwisdom teeth still stab my cheek and I'm Galways sucking Faspirin
The Clife I stole is full of holes and my Gpants don't fit me Fright
My Cdreams are old and faded and my Ghead feels thick and Fuseless
We're Con the road to nowhere but we Gwon't arrive Ftonight so let's go ChomeG  F  
|  C|  G   F|
The Cweather man's excited 'Cause Mother GNature is getting Frestless
The Ctelephone keeps screaming  As I Gsit and count my Fscars
The Cwindow is always open Beause the Gglass is always Fbroken
And the Cthings we lost never looked so good As the Gday we knew they were Fgone
CBuild it up Then Gwatch it Fcrumble
CSave the talk You're Ggoing Fdown
CTake the fall There's Gnothing Fto it
CSell the world  And Gcoin the Fsound
                C      GN.C         C  
'Cause I will be around When you awake
  |  C|  G   F|  C|  G   F|  C| N.C |
  |  C|  G|  Dm|  F   G|  C| 
The scarecrows are Gmarching The fields are in fDmlames
There's nothing to Feat But I cGan't complaiCn
The axes have fGallen My strings have been Dmcut
My puppeteer's Flonely But he's Gplum out of Cluck
The roads are missGhapen The signs are all Dmboards
I remember this Froom 'Cause I've Gbeen here befCore
The floorboards are rottGen The sink's full of rDmust
                         F               G       CN.C
And using my pinky I draw you in the dust
The CWinter has lost His touch And now His Gsnow is made of Fplastic
The Ckids are all in line  But they will nGever get a Fturn
The Ccity is made of cardboard And it's Gfoggy with polFlution
Let's Csit down on the moon So we can Gwatch this planet Fburn
CCover us and Gwe'll start Fsinking CNothing ever Glasts for Flong
CI'm not dead, I Gjust quit Fliving IC'm not sure if it's Gright or Fwrong
             C       GN.C         C  
But I will be around When you awake
