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

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