[Intro]
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
[Verse]
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
Shakedown nineteen seventy nine
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
Cool kids never have the time
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2 F#m
on a live wire right up off the street
B
you and I should meet
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
Junebug skipping like a stone
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
with the headlights pointing at the dawn
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
we were sure we'd never see an
F#m B
end to it all
[Chorus]
E Emaj7 A Amaj7 A E
And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
Emaj7 A Amaj7 A
And we don't know just where our bones will
E Emaj7 A
rest to dust I guess
Amaj7 A F#m B
forgotten and absorbed into the earth
[Verse]
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
below double cross the vacant and the bored
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
they're not sure just what we have in store
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2 F#m B
morphine city slippin dues down to see
[Chorus]
E Emaj7 A Amaj7 A E
That we don't even care as restless as we are
Emaj7 A Amaj7 A E
we feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
Emaj7 A Amaj7 A B
and poured cement, lamented and assured
C#m A
to the lights and towns below
B C#m A
faster than the speed of sound
B C#m A
faster than we thought we'd go
F#m B
beneath the sound of
[Verse]
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
hope Justine never knew the rules
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
hung down with the freaks and ghouls
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
no apologies ever need be made
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2 F#m
I know you better than you fake it
B
to see that
[Chorus]
E Emaj7 A Amaj7 A E
We don't even care to shake these zipper blues
Emaj7 A Amaj7 A
And we don't know just where our bones will
E Emaj7 A
rest to dust I guess
Amaj7 A F#m B
forgotten and absorbed into the earth
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2
below the street heats the urgency of now
Emaj7* Emaj7** Amaj7 A Asus2 E
as you can see there's no one around
E
