Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
The tune  is so sad,
the words make you cry
G 
like a greeting card
D 
Dream of a gold brick,
a flat road leads to it,
G 
you climb up on
A 
D 
And for reasons you don't even grasp,
G 
A 
D 
you re cycle some life from the past
The attention to detail, so rigid,
G 
so futile, consuming it all
D 
Relaxed conversation,
serene masturbation,
G 
D 
G 
security gates
D 
Nursing a craving for ice cream and contact,
G 
your chariot awaits
A 
You leave home but
D 
you never leave home,
A 
drive for miles in a car on your own
D 
A gratification, a participation
G 
that feels so good
D 
We're all in electric wasteland
E 
And a candle that flickers in the eye of the storm
Em

G 
D 
The crew that blows through you,
you're riding the current
G 
The pounding is gone
D 
Past stiles of bright counters
That file down the edges
G 
Of chaos and doom
A 
So please don't turn away
D 
A 
Just because happy hour
G 
D 
happens all day
Whether boring and phony
G 
A rock small and lonely to climb
