A
Did it all get real? I guess it's real enough.
F#m
They got refrigerators full of blood
E E7
another century spent pointing guns at anything that moves.
A
Sometimes I worry that I've lost the plot,
F#m
My twitchin' muscles tease my flippin' thoughts.
E E7
I never really dreamed of heaven much until we put him in the ground
[Pre-Chorus 1]
E F#m
But it's all I'm doing now - listening for patterns in the sound
E E7
Of an endless static sea.
E F#m
But once the satellite's deceased, it blows like garbage through the streets
E
Of the night sky to infinity.
[Chorus]
A
But don't you weep.
F#m
Don't you weep.
E E7
There is nothing as lucky...
A
Honey, don't you weep.
F#m
Don't you weep.
E E7 D A
There is nothing as lucky... as easy... or free.
[Verse 2]
A
Don't be a criminal in this police state
F#m
You better shop and eat and procreate
E
You got vacation days then you might escape
E7
To a condo on the coast
A
I set my watch to the atomic clock
F#m
I hear the crowd count down til the bomb gets dropped
E
I always figured there'd be time enough
E7
I never let it get me down
[Pre-Chorus 2]
E F#m
But I can't help it now - looking for faces in the clouds
F#m
I got some friends I barely see
E
But we're all planning to meet
F#m
We'll lay in bags as dead as leaves
E E7
All together for eternity
[Chorus]
A
But don't you weep.
F#m
Don't you weep.
E E7
There is nothing as lucky...
A
Honey, don't you weep.
F#m
Don't you weep.
E E7 D A
There is nothing as lucky... as easy... or free.
