When Something Stands

([E5] [D5] [A]) x4, pause...

[E]When so[D]mething stands for [A]nothin,[E] a d[D]etached memo[A]ry
[E]This [D]one's about e[A]verythin you don't think about unt[E]il you sleep[D]  [A]
[E]This [D]one's for n[A]othin, [E]and th[D]is one's for f[A]un,
[E]This[D] one's about r[A]ock n' roll, and comic books and b[E]ubble gum[D]  [A]

[E5]Ooh [D5]ooh[A] ooh...

Well each day offers somethin, but none of it'll last
Unless you, ya take the reigns, take em from the knight,
Push the pawn right through the pass.
And this one's for the silence, and the questions that it brings
And the smell of time and the reverence, and the possibilities

Ooh ooh ooh...

Ya double up the foreground, ya put it on a slide,
Inspect it with your perfect ways, until it burns your eyes
And this one's for nothin, and this one's for fun
And this one's about rock n' roll and comic books and bubble gum

Ooh ooh ooh...
