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