G
This one is for you
Bm C
and it goes on and on and on
G
when nothing seems to do
Bm C
for when the doubtless and the wrong
G
ask; 'can I help you?'
Bm C
in that way that says, 'I can't'
G
or claim we're all the same
Bm C
just inconsistant
Bm
or pretend all understanding
C
turned out to be pretense
D C
then pretend the pretense of understanding
Bm
How long does it take depends
You can cast your doubts
C
Turn em inside-out
D C
Hang em upside-down
G D Bm C
Til their art falls out - the short answer's; forty-eight hours
Let your heart all out - the short answer's; forty-eight hours
Til your art falls out - the short answer's; forty-eight hours
Let your heart all out Summon up all your power
C C
G G Bm C (X2)
G
If you need a good connection for drugs
Bm C
or a strong tolerance for alcohol
G
Too little religious education
Bm C
Some pain threshold
G
If from the outside
Bm C
There's no demand for what you do
G
And inside there's an army waiting
Bm C
For their marching orders for you
Bm
Come sit on my swing-set
C
Come sit on my porch
D
After Ten at night, smoke your cigarettes
C Bm
if you like, of course
You can cast your doubts
C
Turn em inside-out
D C
Hang em upside-down
G D Bm C
Til their art falls out - the short answer's; forty-eight hours
Let your heart all out - the short answer's; forty-eight hours
Til your art falls out - the short answer's; forty-eight hours
Let your heart all out Summon up all your power
C C
And it does on and on and on
B E(X7)
B E B E
If we ever get home
let's don't compare
let's relinquish all our holidays
and Drive-In Premieres B E
C D C
if we ever get home
gonna have me three children
Apple, Zippo, and Metronome
that's what I'm gonna name them
B E
and get celebrity skin
B E B E
the illusion of tough
I'm gonna talk about nothing
til nothing's enough B E
C D C
if we ever get home
and the subject comes up
this War isn't for children
War is nothing's enough
G Bm C
O' in the clouds of blood at the end of JAWS
G Bm C
in the misted cars honking their applause
G Bm C
at the Drive-In Double Feature
G Bm C
at the heart of dark enough
G Bm C
O' it's JAWS and The Dark Canuck
G Bm C
should we stay for The Dark Canuck?
G Bm C
yea.Everyone, hands up!?
G Bm C
Who's for 'The Dark Canuck'?
C C
I think we relinquished enough
G Bm C
and it's still dark enough
and it goes on and on and on
