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