Start Jamming...
[E]
[B] I want to tell you about Texas [E] Radio and the Big Beat.
It comes out of the Virginia swamps, cool and slow, but plenty of precision.
And the backbeat, narrow and hard to master.
Some call it heavenly, brilliant.
Others feel the roof of the [B] western dream.
I love the friends [E] I have gathered together in this dead rap.
We have constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping.
This is the land where the Pharaoh died.
[C#m] [G]
[B]
[E]
[F#] [Em]
[D] [E]
The Negroes in the forest, brightly [D] [Em] feathered, they are saying,
forget the night, live with us in the forests of azure.
[B]
Out here in the [E] periphery there are no stars.
Out here we are [D] stone, [E] immaculate.
Now listen to this, I'll [C#] tell you about the [G] heartache.
[E] [C#m] I'll tell you about the heartache and the [B] loss of God.
[C#m] I'll tell you about the hopeless night, fevered food for souls [F#] forgot.
I'll tell you about the maiden with wrought [Em] iron soul.
[A]
I'll tell you this, no eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the night.
