Barstow

Intro

C G D C G

[G] Anyone caught speaking Esperanto
Is thought crazy or headed for [D] 
jail
There's peace in the wilds of west 
Texas
Where the sun and the [C] sky 
pre[G]vail

[G] Take no notice of the rising 
waters
Take no notice where the rivers run 
[D] dry
They'll be diggin through the 
landfills
To find evidence of [C] our great 
de[G]mise

Continues after the ad
[Cadd9] There's a changing pattern 
before us
And the past tells the story quite 
[G] well
By the [D] time we make it to 
Barstow
We'll be more than [C] halfway to 
[G] hell

[Cadd9][G] [D]

[G] Waves of adverts that promise 
revival
Trick it where it batters the [D] 
brain
The devil bought the key to Branson
Drives a backhoe and [C] wears a 
gold [G] chain

[G] Now we're living in the unnamed 
time frame
That's in Reno we're on the hu[D]man
 race
Woke up in another test market
With a new headache [C] filter in 
[G] place


[Cadd9] There's a changing pattern 
before us
And the past tells the story quite 
[G] well
By the [D] time we make it to 
Barstow
We'll be more than [C] halfway to 
[G] hell

[Cadd9][G] [D]
