Capo IIIrd Fret
INTRO   D   Dsus2    C  
                       Am          Cmaj7           G        D   F(Fmaj7)    D    Dsus2  
There's the stillness of death on a deathly unliving sea,  
                 Am     Cmaj7                   G          D   F(Fmaj7)    D    Dsus2  
and the motor car magical world long since ceased to be,  
                   Am     Cmaj7              G          D    F(Fmaj7)    D    Dsus2  
when the Eve-bitten apple returned to destroy the tree.  
IncCestuous ancesDtry's charaCbanc rDide,  
sCpawning new mDillions throws the wCorld on its sDide.  
SuGpporting their Cfar-flung illGusion,  the nGmational curCm7se,  
and Gthose with nDo sandwicFhes please gCet off the buDs.  
             Am          Cmaj7           G         D    F(Fmaj7)    D    Dsus2  
The excrement bubbles, the century's slime decays  
                      Am       Cmaj7                G        D   F(Fmaj7)D   Dsus2  
and the brainwashing government lackeys would have us say  
            Am       Cmaj7             G        D    F(Fmaj7)    D    Dsus2  
it's under control and we'll soon be on our way  
to a gCrand year for bDabies and qCuiz panel gDames  
of the hoCt hungry millioDns you'll bCe sure to rDemain.  
The natuGral reCsources are dwGindling and nGmo one grows oCm7ld,  
and thGose with no Dhomes to go tFo, please dCig yourself holDes.  
CWe wandered through qAmuiet lands, felt the Gfirst breath of DsnDsus2ow.  
CSearched for the last Ampigeon, slGate grey I've been toDldDsus2.  
               C                   D     G           Em                D    Em(1)    G  
Stumbled on a daffodil which she crushed in the rush, heard it sigh,  
and left it to diDe.  Dsus2  
At oEmnce felt remGorse and were toDuched by the lCoss of our oDwn,  Dsus2  
held its pEmoor broken hGead in her haDnds, dropped sCoft tears in the sDnoDsus2w,  
and it's oDmnly the taCking that mGakes you -Em-- what you Dare.  
CWond'ring alAmoud will a soGn one day be borDn  Dsus2

INTRO

Am Cmaj7 G D F D Dsus2

(Fmaj7)

There's the stillness of death on a deathly unliving sea,

Am Cmaj7 G D F D Dsus2

(Fmaj7)

and the motor car magical world long since ceased to be,

Am Cmaj7 G D F D Dsus2

(Fmaj7)

when the Eve-bitten apple returned to destroy the tree.

C D C D

Incestuous ancestry's charabanc ride,

C D C D

spawning new millions throws the world on its side.

G C G Gm Cm7

Supporting their far-flung illusion, the national curse,

G D F C D

and those with no sandwiches please get off the bus.

Am Cmaj7 G D F D Dsus2

(Fmaj7)

The excrement bubbles, the century's slime decays

Am Cmaj7 G D F Dsus2

(Fmaj7)D

and the brainwashing government lackeys would have us say

Am Cmaj7 G D F D Dsus2

(Fmaj7)

it's under control and we'll soon be on our way

C D C D

to a grand year for babies and quiz panel games

C D C D

of the hot hungry millions you'll be sure to remain.

G C G Gm Cm7

The natural resources are dwindling and no one grows old,

G D F C D

and those with no homes to go to, please dig yourself holes.

C Am G D Dsus2

We wandered through quiet lands, felt the first breath of snow.

C Am G D Dsus2

Searched for the last pigeon, slate grey I've been told.

C D G Em D Em G

(1)

Stumbled on a daffodil which she crushed in the rush, heard it sigh,

D Dsus2

and left it to die.

Em G D C D Dsus2

At once felt remorse and were touched by the loss of our own,

Em G D C D Dsus2

held its poor broken head in her hands, dropped soft tears in the snow,

Dm C G Em D

and it's only the taking that makes you --- what you are.

C Am G D Dsus2

Wond'ring aloud will a son one day be born

C Am G D Dsus2 Em D Dsus2

(2)

to share in our infancy in the child's path we've worn.

C D G Em D Em G

In the aging seclusion of this earth that our birth did surprise

we'll open his eyes.
