                  I was always looking left and right

		Must have been touching close to 94

Fantastic Voyage 
Tom: D

D                        E
  In the event that this fantastic voyage
       Bb                      D
Should turn to erosion and we never get old
              E                G
Remember it's true, dignity is valuable
                           D
But our lives are valuable too
A      D                                  A
 We're learning to live with somebody's depression
      D                                    G
And I don't want to live with somebody's depression
              A
We'll get by, I suppose
It's a very modern world, but nobody's perfect
It's a moving world, but that's no reason
To shoot some of those missiles
Think of us as fatherless scum
It won't be forgotten
                                                 D    E
'Cause we'll never say anything nice again, will we?
        G
And the wrong words make you listen
        D
In this criminal world
              E                G
Remember it's true, loyalty is valuable
                           D
But our lives are valuable too
A      D                                  A
 We're learning to live with somebody's depression
      D                                    G
And I don't want to live with somebody's depression
             A
We'll get by I suppose
But any sudden movement I've got to write it down
They wipe out an entire race and I've got to write it down
But I'm still getting educated but I've got to write it down
And it won't be forgotten
                                                   D   E   G...
'Cause I'll never say anything nice again, how can I?

Candidate 
Tom: Dm
Intro:  Dm  Am  G x5
                Dm             Am
I'll make you a deal, like any other candidate
         G
We'll pretend we're walking home cause your future's at stake
   Dm                      Am
My set is amazing, it even smells like a street
          G
There's a bar at the end where I can meet you and your friend
Dm                                       Am
Someone scrawled on the wall I smell the blood of les tricoteuses
    G
Who wrote up scandals in other bars
           Dm                   Am
I'm having so much fun with the poisonous people
          G
Spreading rumours and lies and stories they made up
Dm                     Am
Some make you sing and some make you scream
G
One makes you wish that you'd never been seen
              Dm                                Am
But there's a shop on the corner that's selling papier mache
       G
Making bullet-proof faces, Charlie Manson, Cassius Clay
       Dm       Am           G
If you want it, boys, get it here, thing
       Dm
So you scream out of line
  Am                    G
I want you, I need you, Anyone out there, Any time
Dm                                  Am
Tres butch little number whines hey dirty, I want you
          G
When it's good, it's really good, and when it's bad I go to pieces
Dm              Am           G
If you want it, boys, get it here, thing
             Dm                                Am
Well, on the street where you live I could not hold up my head
      G
For I put all I have in another bed
    Dm                   Am
On another floor, in the back of a car
       G
In the cellar of a church with the door ajar
        Dm                             Am
Well, I guess we must be looking for a different kind
             G
But we can't stop trying til we break up our minds
        Dm                     Am
Til the sun drips blood on the seedy young knights
    G
Who press you on the ground while shaking in fright
  Dm                         Am
I guess we could cruise down one more time
     G
With you by my side, it should be fine
      Dm                 Am
We'll buy some drugs and watch a band
     G
Then jump in the river holding hands

 

Future Legend 
Tom: C
And in the death as the last few corpses lay rotting on the slimy thoroughfare
The shutters lifted in inches in Temperance Building high on Poacher's Hill
And red mutant eyes gaze down on Hunger City
        C
No more big wheels
                                 F
Fleas the size of rats sucked on rats the size of cats
                           F#    G
And ten thousand peoploids split into small tribes
             Ab                        Am
Coveting the highest of the sterile skyscrapers
                     G                                   C
Like packs of dogs assaulting the glass fronts of Loveme Avenue
                       D                     G
Ripping and rewrapping mink and shiny silver fox, now legwarmers
                                     C
Family badge of sapphire and cracked emerald any day now the year of the Diamond Dogs...

Gathered in the dampened grass

We played Our songs and felt the London sky
C                           G
Resting on our hands it was God's land

It was ragged and naive it was Heaven
G                          Dm7

Oh, to capture just one drop

Of all the ecstasy that swept that afternoon
   G                F              C
To paint that love upon a white balloon
                    Em             C7      
And fly it from the toppest top of all the tops

And saw machines of every shape and size
   A                  G               D   
We talked with tall Venusians passing through

But the Captain shook his head

And away they soared

Climbing through the ivory vibrant cloud
A                   G               D
Someone passed some bliss among the crowd
       A                  G  
And We walked back to the road, unchained
WEIRD BIT

look like a rolling gnome."


"Not at the London school of Ecognomics."

In my life I've never stopped to worry about a thing
G             F               G              F
Opened up and shouted out and never tried to see

The Children of the summer's end
Em                       Am
Gathered in the dampened grass
   Bm                            Bb
We played Our songs and felt the London sky
C                           G
Resting on our hands it was God's land
       C                       G     Dm7
It was ragged and naive it was Heaven
G                          Dm7
Touch, We touched the very soul

Of holding each and every life

We claimed the very source of joy ran through

It didn't, but it seemed that way
  C                           G  Eb  C
I kissed a lot of people that day
C              Em  
Oh, to capture just one drop 
   C7           Am7                F  
Of all the ecstasy that swept that afternoon
   G                F              C
To paint that love upon a white balloon
                    Em             C7      
And fly it from the toppest top of all the tops

That man has pushed beyond his brain

Satori must be something just the same

We scanned the skies with rainbow eyes

And saw machines of every shape and size
   A                  G               D   
We talked with tall Venusians passing through
                   Dmaj7
And Peter tried to climb aboard 
        D7                D6         
But the Captain shook his head
     G6       
And away they soared
A                    G             D
Climbing through the ivory vibrant cloud
A                   G               D
Someone passed some bliss among the crowd
       A                  G  
And We walked back to the road, unchained
WEIRD BIT
