Intro: A, Filler


A Welcome home my son, it's been so 
very long, I know that you're here 
to surrender.
A The disappointing days I suffered 
at your age were more than I care to
 remember.
B Before you throw the towel and 
turn your engines out, don't expect 
to spit all that you tasted from 
your mouth
A After all you've seen, the most 
you'll hope to be is pretending to 
be a pretender.

C instrumental

A The years that I been through, I 
met a gentle few who say that they 
love and they mean it.
A The others that I met, they're 
decent folks I guess, but all that 
they love is achievement.
B Their swagger and their dress, the
 trappings of success, the butter 
and the milk of what it takes to get
 ahead
A Any given night, you'll catch them
 dead to rights painting their name 
on the ceiling.

C instrumental

Solo over the verse (AABA), Filler

A Remember in the end that many of 
your friends would rather be dead 
than uncertain.
A They want a simple yes, or even 
better yet, a promise the next life 
is perfect.
B I promise that it's not, but then 
what have they got? Only fifty 
years, they never gave a moment's 
thought.
A Anyone they find who tells them 
otherwise, they'll follow him 
backwards and shirtless.
