[Intro]

C G F C G F

C F G F

[Verse 1]

C G

I was getting ready to be a threat

F

I was getting set for my accidental suicide

C

The kind where no one dies

G F

No one looks too surprised

C

Then you realize riding on the para-success

G Am

Of a heavy-handed metaphor

C

And feeling like you've been here before

G

Because you've been here before

Am

And you've been here before

C

Then a word washed ashore

G

A word washed ashore

Dm F G

Then a word washed ashore

[Chorus]

Am E7 F#m E Am E

Sovay, Sovay, Sovay

F C G Am C G Am Dm C G Am C G Am Dm

All along the day

[Verse 2]

C G

I was getting ready to consider my next plan of attack

Am F C

I think I'm gonna sack the whole board of trustees

G

All those Don Quixotes and their B-17s

Am Dm

And I swear this time

C

Yeah this time

G Am

They'll blow us back to the 70's

C

And this time

G Am

They're playing Ride of the Valkyries

C

With no semblance of grace or ease

G Dm

And they're acting on vagaries

C

With their violent proclivities

G

And they're playing Ride

Dm

They're playing Ride

C G Dm G

Playing Ride, Ride of the Valkyries

[Chorus]

Am E7 F#m E Am E
