E

[Verse 1]

E
Now once upon a time
        A
In this village of the damned
  B
I took my shot at greatness
        A               E
And the goddamn gun was jammed
       A
So I'm in a drunken state
         E
'Cause I can't take life straight
         B            A
And if I dull my eyes enough
               E     A E
The brightness fades

[Verse 2]

E
I left my heart in San Francisco
       A
And my brain in Los Angeles
   B
My heart just made me bitter
       A                  E
And my brain just made me dangerous
  A
I don't miss either one
      E
But I look into the sun
             B
And I'd give anything
    A                E     A E
For one good pair of shades

[Chorus]

    A
The world is a wasteland
     E
From Green Bay to Graceland
        B
There's no one fit
   A              E    A E
To lead the human race
        A
And you all know what we are
    E
The throwbacks, the retards
    B            A             E     A E
The ever growing face of human waste

[Verse 3]

E
I first fell off the wagon
       A
On the open road to nowhere
      B
And I guess I'd still be draggin'
     A                    E
If I thought that I could go there
    A
And return to sing this song
    E
But I knew all along
       B
It's a one-way trip
    A               E   A E
And I can't pay the fare

[Verse 4]

       A
All my heroes are gone
          E
And their figures cast in lead
         B
From the fountains at their feet
       A                  E
To the bird shit on their head
    A
And I can't help but wonder
    E
As they lay six feet under
         B
Did they die for me
   A             E     A E
Or did they even care?

[Chorus]

    A
The world is a wasteland
     E
From Green Bay to Graceland
        B
There's no one fit
   A              E    A E
To lead the human race
        A
And you all know what we are
    E
The throwbacks, the retards
    B            A             E     A E
The ever growing face of human waste

    B            A             E     A E
The ever growing face of human waste
    B            A             E     A E
The ever growing face of human waste
