1979

1-[Eb] d-eb-bb [Ab] ab-g-f-eb-f-g-bb
2-[Eb] [Ab] Shakedown nineteen seven
3-[Eb] nine, [Ab] cool kids never have the
4-[Eb] time. On a [Ab] live wire right up off the
#-[Bbsus4] street, you and I [Bb] should

1-[Eb] meet. [Ab] Junebug skipping like a
2-[Eb] stone. With the [Ab] headlights pointed at the
3-[Eb] dawn. [Ab] We were sure we'd never see an
#-[Bbsus4] end to it [Bb] all. And

1-[Eb] I don't even [Ab] care to shake these zipper
2-[Eb] blues. And we don't [Ab] know just where our bones will
3-[Eb] rest to dust I [Ab] guess. Forgotten and ab-
#-[F]-sorbed `to the [Bb] earth be-

1-[Eb]-low. [Ab]
2-[Eb] [Ab] Double cross the vacant and the
3-[Eb] bored. [Ab] They're not sure just what we have in
4-[Eb] store. [Ab] Morphine city slippin'
#-[F] dues down to [Ab] see that

1-[Eb] we don't even [Ab] care as restless as we
2-[Eb] are. We feel the [Ab] pull in the land of a thousand
3-[Eb] guilts and poured ce- [Ab]-ment, lamented and as-

1-[Bb]-sured to the lights and [C#] towns be-[Ab]-low.
2-[Bb] Faster than the [C#] speed of [Ab] sound
3-[Bb] Faster than we [C#] thought we'd [Ab] go, be-
#-[F]-neath the [Bb] sound of

1-[Eb] hope. [Ab] Justine never knew the
2-[Eb] rules, [Ab] Hung down with the freaks and
3-[Eb] ghouls. No [Ab] apologies ever need be
3-[Eb] made, [Ab] I know you better than you
#-[Bbsus4/F] fake it to [Bb] see, that

1-[Eb] we don't even [Ab] care to shake these zipper
2-[Eb] blues. And we don't [Ab] know just where our bones will
3-[Eb] rest to dust I [Ab] guess. Forgotten and ab-
#-[F]-sorbed 'to the [Bb] earth be-

1-[Eb]-low [Ab] The street heats the urgency of
2-[Eb] now. [Ab] As you see there's no one a-
[Eb]-round
