[Verse 1]
E5      E6      E5       E6
Are you sitting comfortably?
       E5       E6    E5    E6
Let me tell you all a story
        A5       A6       A5       A6       A5    A6   A5    A6
About a friendly little creature called the Zeitbeast
     E5     E6    E5  E6
He's like a tiny cow
         F#5
With the temperament of a dog
        A5     A6      A5  A6     B5
And the nervous roving eyes of an artiste
     E5       E6       E5    E6
Some say he's from the delta
      E5          E6      E5    E6
Or he belonged to Frank Sinatra
   A5    A6    A5   A6    A5     A6   A5   A6
Or maybe Miles Davis, but he was into cats
E5    E6       E5     E6
All I know for certain
           F#5
Is that he ended up with Elvis
         A5           A6     A5      A6         B5
And then wherever that beast lays is where it's at

[Chorus 1]
         E*    B   A   E
He's the Zeitbeast
       E              D#m
If you try to pet him too hard then
    C#m*                E
The Zeitbeast will run away
         E     B   A   E
He's the Zeitbeast
              E             D#m
But if you're gentle, open, and relaxed
    C#m*                  E
The Zeitbeast will likely stay

[Verse 2]
  E5      E6  E5            E6
Regardless of where he's from
           E5    E6      E5    E6
Where he's headed is the question
            A5  A6       A5      A6       A5    A6   A5  A6
That should exercise the curious cause of mind
            E5     E6      E5   E6
Because wherever he ends up
            F#5
He's in the center of a certain
        A5    A6           A5    A6      B5
Type of circle, which I'lL try here to define
             E5       E6       E5      E6        E5     E6   E5  E6
You see, the Zeitbeast doesn't hang out with the cool kids
    A5       A6      A5      A6        A5    A6   A5   A6
The cool kids always try and hang with him
             E5       E6    E5   E6
He likes the taste of new ideas
        F#5
And the smell old serene
        A5      A6         A5       A6          B5
And the kind of people the cool kids don't let in

[Chorus 2]
               E     B   A   E
Cause he's the Zeitbeast
       E              D#m
If you try to pet him too hard then
    C#m*                E
The Zeitbeast will run away
         E     B   A   E
He's the Zeitbeast
              E             D#m
But if you're gentle, open, and relaxed
    C#m*                  E
The Zeitbeast will likely stay

[Bridge 1]
          C#m
So he was snuffling around sunset in the sixties
          D
Until The Caesars scared him off to London town
   C#m
He hung out in the markee with Hendrix and The Arbors
     D
When all that heavy shit was going down
    D#m
The seventies found him stuck in CBGBs
         E*
Until he snuck uptown to studio 54
    F#m*
And later, back up in Manchester
       B
In the midst of that loving second summer
      F#m**                                                A
Folks said they saw him sniffing around the Hacienda backdoor
N.C.
And he'll be sniffing around forever more

Ba-ba-da                      ba-ba-da
E5 E6 E5 E6 F#5      F#5      A5 A6 A5 A6 B5   B5

Ba-ba-da    ba-ba-da ba-ba-da ba-ba-da

[Verse 3]
     E5  E6 E5  E6      E5    E6  E5  E6
He's not a mascot, he's not your pet
   A5    A6   A5    A6 A5 A6  A5   A6
He likes the taste of varnish sweat
     E5  E6  E5  E6  F#5
He's yet to play the clarinet
    A5   A6 A5   A6      B5
But like an elephant, he never forgets

[Chorus 3]
         E     B   A   E
He's the Zeitbeast
       E              B
If you try to pet him too hard then
    A                  E
The Zeitbeast will run away
         E     B   A   E
He's the Zeitbeast
              E             B
But if you're gentle, open, and relaxed
    A                     E
The Zeitbeast will likely stay
         E     B   A   E
He's the Zeitbeast
     E             B
He's looking for a soulmate
          A                    E
Who's not scared to bare their soul
         E     B   A   E
He's the Zeitbeast
       E
With a clear set of ideals
        B
And the Zeitbeast at your heels
                               E
You'll find your rock and roll
