At The Bottom Of Everything

C

[Verse 1]

C                                   F             C
we must talk on every telephone get eaten off the web
C                                        F                  G
we must rip out all the epilogues from the books that we have read
C                                 F
and to the face of every criminal strapped firmly to a chair
C                           G              C
we must stare, we must stare, we must stare

C                                    F                C
we must take all of the medicine too expensive now to sell
C                               F            G
set fire to the preacher who is promising us hell
C                                     F
and in the ear of every anarchist that sleeps but doesn't dream
C                     G             C
we must sing, we must sing, we must sing

it'll go like this alright


[Bridge]

F               G                C                F
While my mother waters plants my father loads his gun
F                         G                 Am               F
he say death will give us back to god, just like the setting sun
G                              C
is returned to the lonesome ocean

And then they splashed into the deep blue sea

C  F                C
       Oh, it was a wonderful splash

[Verse 2]

C                                   F               C
we must blend into the choir sing a static with the whole
C                              F              G
we must memorize nine numbers and deny we have a soul
C                                         F
and in this endless race for property and privilege to be won
C                       G            C
we must run, we must run, we must run

C                                       F                  C
we must hang up in the belfry where the bats and moonlight laugh
C                                     F             G
we must stare into a crystal ball and only see the past
C                                               F
and into the caverns of tomorrow with just our flashlight and our love
C                             G               C
we must plunge, we must plunge, we must plunge

[Spoken]

C
And then we'll get down there, way down to the very bottom of everything
And then we'll see it, oh we'll see it, we'll see it, we'll see it

[Bridge]

F               G               C                    F
oh my morning's coming back the whole world's waking up
F                  G            Am               F
this city bus swimming past I'm happy just because
G                              C
I found out I am really no one
