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

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