Verse
A
Richard was a stout-hearted man
D A
He'd been through the bulk of his live
A
He no longer spoke to most of his folks
D A
And was abandoned by his wife
A
Rolling down the road one night alone
D
He came upon a terrible sight
A
An older woman laid bleeding in the road
E A
And her screams bout filled the night
[Chorus]
A
She said "Look backwards on your future,
D A
And look forward to your past
A
Everything upon which you base your faith
Bm E
Is made of vapour and it won't last
A
It's only everything in your shared reality
D
That keeps our souls held fast
D A
So look backwards on your future
E A
And look forward to your past"
[Verse]
A
Richard woke the next morning and spoke
D A
He said "There's something i feel i must do!"
A
He called up all of his natural-born kids
D A
And all his money from the bank he withdrew
A
He changed his mind about everything
D
He'd ever felt about what's bad and good
A
He fixed a loudspeaker to the roof of his car
E A
And he sang to everyone he could
[Chorus]
A
He sang "Look backwards on your future
D A
and look forward to your past
A
Get your sense of time from the acient Hawaiians
Bm E
Your sense of self from the hydrogen blast
A
You'll be what came before, you were what is is to come!"
D
He bellowed out to everyone he past
D A
So "Look backwards on your future
E A
and look forward to your past!"

A
Richard got arrested in Loretto
D A
He was caused in too much mischief for the sisters
A
He spent an evening in the clink and they went home and turned to drink
D A
And gave his all, yes he was a double-fister
A
The issue was the kind of past he had behind him
D
Most of what he lived was wasted days
A
The history he faced was an ocean made of empty
E A
And a destiny you wouldn't want to save
[Chorus]
A
Still I say "Look backwards on your future,
D A
and look forward to your past
A
If you haven't gone and made a mess of your self
Bm E
You just might end up with the last laugh
A
Every little dot of pe-pe-presence and thought
D
For another will give you life class
D A
So look backwards on your future,
E A
and look forward to your past"
[Verse]
A
This particular assemblage of molecules and memories
D
Someday soon may just run out of gas
D A
So look backwards on your future
E A
And look forward to your past
