Intro:

D F# Bm G x3 A

Verse1:

D     Bm           A             D

We go down to throw rocks at the river

      Bm         A

Curses at the parade

G         Bm           A           G

We're just stoning the gears of the clockworks

       A                      D (and so on and so forth)

Try to keep us from acting our age

We swore we'd

carry on like this forever, 'til the free spirits bled.

But now can you believe who's a mother, and that

so-and-so's cut of their dreads...

Chorus:

D F# Bm        G      D F# 
         G      D

      Kill of Columbus    and turn the world around

      F#     Bm         G        A

After all the nomads are settling down

Verse2:

Used to give most the bread to her

landlord leave the crust for the squats.

Now the death weighed as we paid the bankers.

Seemed to kill all the flies in one swat.

Hear the wedding band strike up a number. Dear

they're playing our song. Hold your breath cause

we're gonna go under; get the little ones singing along.

Chorus


Bridge:

  G   Bm      A               D

No way, not to so-and-so said he'd never change

         G          Bm A

said he'd never grow.

We'd stay always on a role

run besides the trains past the mossy stones.

                F#                     Bm
