Album: Brighter than Creation's Dark Written by: Mike Cooley Tabbed by Jangafettnutts G D It was 1990 give or take I don't remember C G when the news of revolution hit the air G D The girls hadn't even started taking down our posters C G when the boys started cutting off their hair D Am The radio stations all decided angst was finally C G old enough it ought to have a proper home G D Dead fat or rich nobody’s left to bitch C G about the goings' on in self destructive zones [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/d/drive-by-truckers/340109.html ] G D The night the practice room caught fire C G there were rumors of a dragon headed straight for Muscle Shoals G D "Stoner tries to save an amplifier" C G and it's like the dragon's side of the story is never told D Am C When the dream and the man and the girls hang around long enough G to make you think it's coming true, G D it's easier to let it all die a fairy tale, C G than admit that something bigger is passing through G D The hippies rode a wave putting smiles on faces, C G that the devil wouldn’t even put a shoe G D Caught between a generation dying from its habits, C G and another thinking rock and roll was new D Am Till the pawn shops were packed like a backstage party, C G hanging full of pointy ugly cheap guitars G D And the young'uns all turned to karaoke, C G hanging all their wishes upon disregarded stars G D My Grandaddy's shotgun is locked in a closet C G and it never shot a thing that could have lived G D An old man decided that you couldn't choose your poison C G till you're nearly old enough to vote for him D Am They turned what was into something so disgusting C G even wild dogs would disregard the bones G D Dead fat or rich nobody’s left to bitch C G about the goings' on in self destructive zones |
