Intro 1
(D major)
Verse 1
Darkness (B minor) at the break of (D major) noon,
shadows even a silver spoon
A hand made blade that tries to balloon,
eclipses (B minor) both the sun and (D major) moon
Dawn (D minor) is standing all (B flat major) too soon,
there is no sense in (D minor) trying (D major)
Pointed (B minor) threats they bluffed (D major) were scorned
Sui (A major) cide mark (D major) s are torn
from a fool's gold mouthpiece
A hallowed horn played wasted
words to prove re (B flat major) ward
He not busy being born, he's busy dyin' (D major)
(D minor) (D major) (D minor)
(D major) Temptation (B minor) s
page flies out (D major) the door
You fella find your (D minor) self at war
Watch waterfalls of pity (D major) roar
If you'll (B minor) come on blind like (D major) before
(B flat major) You'd discover you'd just be
one more person (D minor) cry ing (D major)
(D minor) But don't fear (D major) if (A major) you hear
A foreign (D major) sound to your ear (G major)
It's alright, Ma, (A major) I'm only (D major) sayin' (D minor)
(D major) Have some (B minor) won victory,
some (D major) downfall
Private reasons, great or small
Can be seen in the eyes of those to call
To make all (B minor) that should be killed (D major) sprawl
(B flat major) While others say they don't hate
Nothin' at all except a hatred (D major)
Disillusioned (B minor) words like bullets (D major) bark
As human gods aim for their mark
Make everything (D minor) from (D major) toy guns that spark
To flesh (B minor) -colored cries
that glow in (D major) the dark
(B flat major) It's easy to see without looking too far
Not much, it's really sac (D minor) red (D major)
While preachers (B minor) preach of evil fates (D major)
and teachers teach that knowledge weights
can lead to hundred dollar plates,
goodness (B minor) hides behind (D major) it s gates, (B flat major)
but even the President of the
United States
sometimes have to stand (D major) it
Interlude 1
Verse 2
All of the rules (D major) of the road
have been lodged (A major)
Verse 3
It's only people's (D major) games
you've got to (G major) dodge
Verse 4
It's (D major) all right, (A major) Ma,
I can (D major) 't please him
Interlude 2
(D major) (D minor) (D major)
Verse 5
(D major) Advertising signs that con you
into thinking you're the one
(D minor) That (D major) can do what's never been done
That (B minor) can win what's (D major)
never been won
(B flat major) Meantime life outside goes
on all (D minor) around you (D major)
Verse 6
(D major) (D minor)
(D major) Then you lose your (B minor) self and you reappear
(D major) You suddenly find you
got nothing to fear
Alone you stand with nobody near
When a distant (B minor) trembling voice unclear
(B flat major) Startles your sleeping
ears to hear
Somebody thinks they really found (D minor) you (D major)
Just then a question in your nerves is lit
Yet you know (A major) there is (D major) no answer (D minor) fit
(D major) To satisfy and assure you not to quit
Keep (B minor) it in your mind and not for (D major) get
It (B flat major) is not he or she or them or it
But you be (D minor) long (D major)
Old (D minor) masters, (D major) they make (A major) the rules
For the (D major) wise men and the fools (G major)
It's (D major) alright now (A major) I (D major) can make it
For them they must obey (B minor) author (D major) ity
which they do not respect
in any degree
Despise their jobs their destiny
speak jealously of them that are free
Noth (B flat major) ing more what they do
just to be something more they invest (D major) in
Interlude 3
Verse 7
some principals (D major) baptize
To strict party platform ties
Social clubs and drag disguise
Outsider (B minor) s they freely criticize
(B flat major) Say nothing except to idolize
And say, God bless (D major) you
Interlude 4
Verse 8
And the one who (B minor) sings
with his tongue (D major) on fire
(A major) Gargles in a (D major) rat -raced choir
Bent out of shape from society's pliers
Will not get (B minor) up any (D major) higher
But (B flat major) rather get down the
hole that he's (D minor) (D major) in
Verse 9
(D major)
I mean no harm
Nor put fault (A major)
On (D major) anyone
Who lays an eight (G major) balls
I've (D major) got nothing (A major) more
To live up to (D major)
Old lady (B minor) watches people pair, (D major)
limited in sex they dare,
Push fake morals, insult and stare,
While money (B minor) doesn't talk it swears, (D major)
(B flat major) Propaganda all is phony. (D minor) (D major)
Now all of them that defend
what they cannot see
With a killer's pride security
It blows the mind most bitterly
For them to think death's honesty
Won't (B flat major) fall upon them naturally
Life must sometimes (D minor) get too early (D major)
Just then my eyes (B minor) collided (D major) on
With stuffed graveyards
(A major) All (D major) schools are scoff at pettiness,
which plays so rough
I walk up (B minor) side down, side hand (D major) cuffs,
(B flat major) kick my legs to crash
Oh, say, okay, I've had enough,
what else can (D major) you show me?
(D major) And if my thought dreams could (A major) be seen
They put (D major) my head in a guil (G major) lotine,
well now (D major) it's alright (A major) mom,
it's life and life only. (D major)
You
