Start Jamming...
[E] I'm walking [G#m] through [E] the summer [G#m]
night,
[E] [B] She's got [E] the cold and [C#m] low.
[B]
[E] Yesterday everything [A] was [E] moving too [B] fast,
[E] Today everything is going too [C#m] slow.
[B]
[A] [D] I got nothing left to [A] burn,
[D]
[A] [D] I got nowhere left to turn.
[A] [Dm] [Em]
[B] [E] I don't know if I saw [G#m] you,
[B] [C#m] If I want to kiss [E] you or kill [B] you,
[E] It probably wasn't mine until you knew [C#m] anyhow.
[E]
[A] They left me standing [E] in [B] the doorway [F#] crying,
[A] I don't know if [E] they really liked the booze.
[C#m] [B]
[E] [G#m] [B] [C#m] [E]
Alexander the Great was honored here that is time too.
[C#m] Alexander [Em] the Great conquered all of [A] Persia, Africa [E] and Egypt.
A lot of people don't know about him, but he was a great [C#m] singer too.
[E] His mother, and he had a hell of a mother, [A] says to him,
Is that all you're going to do with your life, just sing songs to the [D] girls?
You could be out doing a lot [A] more son, you could be out conquering this god [D] forsaken world.
[E] So you know what he up [A] and did?
[D] Alexander [A] the damn Great, that's who I'm talking about.
He went [G#m] out, raised up an army, cooked all his enemies in crankcase oil,
Rounded up all [B] the wise citizens, [C#m] doused them in canned heat,
Looked around, wiped his mouth, went home, went to [E] bed and died.
Left all the [G#m] nations he conquered [C#m] and plundered for his armies to divide.
[E] Sure he could have sat around strumming his guitar, [A] but he never would have heard [E] of him.
He never would have been Alexander the Great.
[B] I [F#] don't think that he [A] had songs like these.
All I'm saying is you can't [E] change the world just by singing.
I eat when I'm [G#m] hungry, [Em] [C#m] [E] I drink when I'm dry,
[B] [E] I live my [B] life on the square,
[C#m] [E]
And even if the flesh falls [C#m] off of my [B] face,
[E] I know someone [B] will be there [C#m] to care.
[Em]
[A] [D] There's always a need so [A] great, [D]
[A] [D] even if someone's dead [A] or stuck,
[E] I see nothing [D#] that he gave by, [C#m] any [B] explanation.
[E] There's [B] no words [E] that need to be said.
[G] [A] You [E] left me standing [B] in that dirty [F#] cloud,
[A#] [A] A blue's left of my [E] head.
Geologists in Trenton are digging the world's deepest hole and have reached the depth of 30 miles.
Scientists have measured [C#m] the temperature down there as up to [B] 3000 degrees.
[E] They have lowered microphones into the pit and heard [B] the sounds of millions [E] of suffering [C#m] souls.
[E] Dr.
Somoza at the [B] Project Management [E] Center has determined that the center of the Earth is hallowed.
Hopefully, he says, whatever is down there will stay [Em] down there.
[E] In the West, rain is expected and heavy snowfall is moving in from the plains.
We'll be [C#m] back with more news in [E] a minute.
[C#] [A] [E] [D] [A]

[E] [D#] [E]
[B] [A] [E] [C#m]
[E] [A] [E] [B]
[F#] [A] [E] [F#m] [A] [E]
That [Cm] song makes so much psychological sense.
It doesn't tander or talk down to anyone.
And it's got a great melody.
