Self Destructive Zones

album : brighter than creation’s dark written by : mike cooley tabbed by jangafettnutts G D it was 1990 give or take i don’t remember C G when the news of revolution hit the air G D the girls hadn’t even started taking down our posters C G when the boys started cutting off their hair D Am the radio stations all decided angst was finally C G old enough it ought to have a proper home G D dead fat or rich nobodys left to bitch C G about the goings’ on in self destructive zones G D the night the practice room caught fire C G there were rumors of a dragon headed straight for muscle shoals G D "stoner tries to save an amplifier" C G and it’s like the dragon’s side of the story is never told D Am C when the dream and the man and the girls hang around long enough G to make you think it’s coming true , G D it’s easier to let it all die a fairy tale , C G than admit that something bigger is passing through G D the hippies rode a wave putting smiles on faces , C G that the devil wouldnt even put a shoe G D caught between a generation dying from its habits , C G and another thinking rock and roll was new D Am till the pawn shops were packed like a backstage party , C G hanging full of pointy ugly cheap guitars G D and the young’uns all turned to karaoke , C G hanging all their wishes upon disregarded stars G D my granDaddy’s shotgun is locked in a closet C G and it never shot a thing that could have lived G D an old man decided that you couldn’t choose your poison C G till you’re nearly old enough to vote for him D Am they turned what was into something so disgusting C G even wild dogs would disregard the bones G D dead fat or rich nobodys left to bitch C G about the goings’ on in self destructive zones
