At The Bottom of Everything

Intro:
G C G C G C G

G C G
We must talk in every telephone Get eaten off the web
G C D
We must rip out all the epilogues in the books that we have read
G C

And in the face of every criminal Strapped firmly to a chair
G D G
We must stare, we must stare, we must stare
G C G
We must take all of the medicines too expensive now to sell
G C D
Set fire to the preacher who is promising us hell
G C
And in the ear of every anarchist that sleeps but doesn't dream
G D G
We must sing, we must sing, we must sing

It'll go like this:
C D
While my mother waters plants
G C
My father loads his guns
C D
He says death will give us back to god
Em C D (G)
Just like this setting sun is returned to this lonesome ocean

G C G C
And then they splashed into the deep blue sea
G C D G C G G D G
It was a wonderful splash

G C G
We must blend into the choir Sing ecstatic with the whole
G C D
We must memorize nine numbers and deny we have a soul
G C
And in this endless race for property and privilege to be one
G D G
We must run, we must run, we must run
G C G
We must hang up in the belfry where the bats and moonlight laugh
G C D
We must stare into a crystal ball and only see the past
G C
And in the caverns of tomorrow With just our flashlights and our love
G D G
We must plunge, we must plunge, we must plunge

G
And then we'll get down there to the very bottom of everything
(C)
And we'll see it, we'll see it, we'll see it

C D G C
Oh my mornings coming back The whole world's waking up
C D Em C
In the city buses are swimming past I'm happy just because
C G C G
I found out I'm really no one
