G
I like the look of motorcycles
G
But I can't take the sound
D
Or thelowAmericana
D
But that shitpassed on the ground
G
Louis was apatriot
G
But I'm not made for crowds
D
Someone told me, "Crowds are liquid"
D
Fill the glass up by the mouth
Em
Spread them out in a single file
Em
Ask them one long question each
F#m
"When you finally meet your maker
F#m
Will you preface with a speech?"
Em
Will you say, "The world is changing
Em
And my mind's not fast enough?"

Feed you vast information
F#m
And remember how to love

G
I'd say I'm intelligent
G
But I can't read a book
D
No one warnd me to be wary
D
Of a strain that pains you looking

I think it is evrything

We are fish on shiny hooks

If you hook 'em when they're nascent

If you snag 'em when they're young
F#m
This is how you build an army
F#m
I'm a cold man's rising son
Em
Here's the brightest of a nation
Em
In a wide panopticon
F#m
Keep them busy with each other
F#m
As the real war wages on
Em
So we seek a modern prophet
Em
As the cycle follows through
F#m
But how can one thing be omniscient?
F#m
When there's this much, nothing's true
Em
So when we finally meet our maker
Em
And the judgement passes down
F#m
We will say, "The world is changing"
F#m
They'll say, "It just spins around"
