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 Dm
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 Dm 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 Dm
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 Dm
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
