[G] [A] [G] Treasure!
This one!
And that's [E] another thing, is don't let them ever tell you that like when these political leaders and stuff like that are
found out to be crooks or making weird [Fm] deals [G] or bugging each other or
these Oliver Norths and things.
Don't let them ever lie to you, tell them that the public doesn't care about that,
that the kids are not interested.
It does have an impression on them.
And it [Gb] gives them exactly the impression [Ab]
that
the whole government is [Gb] corrupt anyway so why [G] bother partaking in society anyhow because you're just going to lose.
[E] [G] [A] [E]
[A] [E] I mean we were too busy obsessed [B] with our own delusions and trying to
[Ab]
[G] make some sort of [B] romantic sense [G] out of the world or some sort of like
[Ab] make, achieve [A] something or something before we [E] eventually just [Gm] completely exploded and destroyed ourselves out of it.
You know, time came.
Shake drugs, [Gb] you shake alcohol, [E] you shake all that attitude and stuff like that.
You see what's really going on and find out [A] that everybody has sort of been like that and everybody's kind of like blind.
[G]
[Bb] [Db] [Em] [F] [E] [G]
[Bbm] [Em] [Bb] [E] [G]
[Bb] [Db] [G] And [Bb] his [Em] approach is more, I don't know, how can I say, [Bb] [N] he's a bit more theatrical or something.
See he also, he very romanticizes the mood of the whole thing, which I never really did.
I never thought of it as being particularly [G] romantic.
Nothing romantic?
No, not really.
[D] If anything [G] I found like the things I [C] would be getting from that music would seem like to me like [G] awfully
depressingly indicative of the times and the situations that all those people were living in.
As I walk these narrow streets, [C] where a million passing [G] feet have trod before me,
[C] [G] with my guitar in my hand, suddenly I realize nobody [Gm] knows me.
[G] What do you [C] think of [G] the 60s being [Em] fashionable at the moment?
I mean bands like the [D] Bangles, [G]
I mean [D] clothes, fashion.
[G] Well, not really the significant elements of the [E] 60s to remember I don't think.
[N] But nobody really remembered the significant elements of the 50s either.
You
[G] know [C] that's just nothing but the same [Gb] as like 50s nostalgia [C] for, you know,
[Gb] T [C]-boots and greased [A] back hair, it's the same thing.
[E] [A] [D]
[E] [Em]
You don't listen to [D] R.E. [E].M.? Never. Never. [Em] Do you like them? [E] [D] [Em]
No. The [D] [E]
melodies aren't [Gm] really strong, it's not the [N] birds, you know, [C] which is what I think it [N] wants to be sometimes. It's certainly not television, which I think it wants to be sometimes. It's kind of like often this mediocre type of [E] netherworld, you know, where it doesn't really make a step in any direction. To me it's more like they've been listening, looking at [Am] the birds for [D] about, you know, four or [Em] five days. [Gm] [E]
The clowns actually have the [Db] right attitude, which is just, it just [G] creates this wonderful sort of entertainment cult, you [N] know. Which probably will win sometimes. Yeah, and even that's a product of negativity in a way, if you think about it, because, [G] you know, the things that they find so humorous are actually deadly serious matters, you know. And I think [Ab] something's kind of [Gb] strange about sitting around making jokes [Em] about mass murderers and things. [D]
[Ab] This is B.B. King and the B.B. [G] King's fan [E] here. [Eb] [Abm] Where's B.B.? The combination of [N] U2 and B.B. King. What do you think of combinations like that? I'm sure U2 probably really genuinely love B.B. King and it's something they really wanted to do. [Ab] From what I understand is they went and [G] located and phoned B.B. King up and, you know, really [E] asked him to do it, you know. [N] B.B. King was quite astonished. [Ab] You know, U2, what do [Gm] they want with me? This guy might be summoned to [F] the White House or [E] something to give advice. [N] He wants me to advise him? [Dm] [D]
[Ab] [G]
