a section (Bbm, Bbm6/D#, Cm, Cm4/F, Bbm, Bbm6/D#, Fmimv/C, Fminv/C)
i write this for the good
of all of you
who don't know which way to go
though i don't know myself
i can say
we better know tomorrow
(D/A+C#+F#)
b section (D&G/D&G, D&F/D#&G. all w/ D&D#/G in between)
now I see
you tire endlessly
after you've fought for
this empty space to grieve
c section (F6inv, Cm/D#, Gsus4inv/D, Ginv)
b section
why when lost
do you all disagree?
why, you must
kill me

primacy, primacy...
(“Address on Vietnam War Protests - Spiro Agnew”)
oh it's much too hard
to collect the rubble
while keeping my head held high
i'm drowning in the weight
we carry
along the assembly line
(B7inv)
d section (Eminv, Eminsus4inv/A, Bm/D, Dinv/A, Eminv, Eminsus4inv/A, Bm7inv/D, B7inv/D#)
we're in luck the crossroads
aren't far enough away
to fight aground
in the morning every day
on this field of white
full of flowers on their side
waiting for their savoir
but it's never specified
who's right and who’s wrong
and who will ever be to blame
take a guess, it's no one
for love is in the name
of the hand that waters
but is Jekyll or is Hyde
why we're meant to run
over the flowers 'til they die?
and it’s all gone, gone
‘til it’s all gone, gone, gone, gone gone
and it’s all gone, gone
‘til it’s all gone, gone, gone, gone gone…
(B7inv/D#...)
outro (F, Fm/G#, Cinv/E, Cinv/E, F, Fm/G#, Cinv, Cinv)
and it all fades away
if i don't hold onto it tight
if it crumbles will you say
it was all just lost time?
