The Execution of All Things
Technically this song starts with only the bass, but I like to strum the bottom
three strings of these chords.
E F# A E
Soldiers come quickly, I feel the earth beneath my feet.
I'm feeling badly, it's not an attempt at decency.
1st Riff (3:01)

e|-----12----16-(14)-12-| (Play note only on the second time)
B|--12----12------------|
And if you're well off, well then I'm happy some for you.
But I'd rather not celebrate my defeat and
C#m B E
humiliation here with you.
Play 1st Riff once at 2:45, this time with distortion.

Someone come quickly, this place was built for moving out.
Leave behind buildings, the city planners got mapped out.
E F# A E
Bring with you history and make your hard earned feast.
E F# A
Then we’ll all go to Omaha, to work and exploit the
C#m B A E Bm A G F#7
booming music scene and humility.
3rd Riff (1:57) And we've been talking all night....
