Album: Brighter than Creation's Dark
Written by: Mike Cooley
F C
It was 1990 give or take I don't remember
A# F
when the news of revolution hit the air
F C
The girls hadn't even started taking down our posters
A# F
when the boys started cutting off their hair
C Gm
The radio stations all decided angst was finally
A# F
old enough it ought to have a proper home
F C
Dead fat or rich nobody’s left to bitch
A# F
about the goings on in self destructive zones
F C
The night the practice room caught fire
A# F
there were rumors of a dragon headed straight for Muscle Shoals
F C
"Stoner tries to save an amplifier"
A# F
and it's like the dragon's side of the story is never told
C Gm A#
When the dream and the man and the girls hang around long enough
F
to make you think it's coming true,
F C
it's easier to let it all die a fairy tale,
A# F
than admit that something bigger is passing through
F C
The hippies rode a wave putting smiles on faces,
A# F
that the devil wouldn’t even put a shoe
F C
Caught between a generation dying from its habits,
A# F
and another thinking rock and roll was new
C Gm
Till the pawn shops were packed like a backstage party,
A# F
hanging full of pointy ugly cheap guitars
F C
And the young'uns all turned to karaoke,
A# F
hanging all their wishes upon disregarded stars
F C
My Grandaddy's shotgun is locked in a closet
A# F
and it never shot a thing that could have lived
F C
An old man decided that you couldn't choose your poison
A# F
till you're nearly old enough to vote for him
C Gm
They turned what was into something so disgusting
A# F
even wild dogs would disregard the bones
F C
Dead fat or rich nobody’s left to bitch
A# F
about the goings on in self destructive zones
