Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Let  me shout its common  cause for things  to fall apart
 For radicals  to ruin  all that's right
I  don't mean to flout  the laws of government  or heart
I  just don't want  to lose your eyes
 Wait  for  the ocean-bottled  news
 Fly-bys  and radio  balloons
We  will sing of lesser  traits
 and play  them for the magistrate
 In groups  of four or eight  or twelve
 Until  they say "we might as well"
 Grocery stores and cannonballs
 Line up on my list of things I'll remember when I'm old
 Water towers and Mid-west plains still in the abyss
 Left unseen 'til we're further up the road
 Wait for the static stat airwaves
 Land-locked ocean-side parades
 We will bring our new debates
 And sing them for the magistrate
 In groups of four or eight or twelve
 Until they say "we might as well"
 Hey, hey, hey, we might as well
 Play the Intro:
 These days  are not fast
 Times  will not last
 So they say,  but I'm having trouble believing
Try  to settle soft in the canopy  we've lost
 As you dance  and sway and kiss with Costa Ricans
 These days  are not fast
 Times  will not last
 So they say,  but I'm having  trouble believing
 Try  to settle soft in the canopy  we've lost
 You are getting  all you can  from my hurting,  from my hurting
La  la la la
 La la  la la la
 La la la  La la  la la la  la
 In the live he plays the C chord with the G note on the e string.
