## NOTE: ~ = Walk-Down from C to Am ##

INTRO:   G    C    G     Am    C    G    D  G

Three Gspeeds, going Dnowhere fastG  
I hesitate at the door to the future
CHolding Gon to my Dbitter-sweet pastEm  
CHORUS:
Me and Dall of the GpercolatorsEm  
Me and Dall of the Grotary phonesEm  
Me and Dall of my Gvinyl records
          C~             Am  
Warped and scratched and out of date
C33,G45,D78G  
I've got friends from the old home townC  
We used to Gwork at the Dhome town newsG  
I've got houses in a couple of cities
CI'm still Gsinging those Dhome town bluesEm  
CHORUS:
Me and Dall of the Gdrive in moviesEm  
Me and Dall of the Gafternoon papersEm  
Me and the Dfree-form Gradio
      C~      Am  
Fading in and out of date
C33,G45,D78G  Em  
BRIDGE:
I hear Dtalk about a Ggreat depressionEm  
I hear the Ddrums of the Gwar machineEm  
I wonder Dif I'm Gstuck in the past
Or if it Amall repeats just Dlike a CD
