1. Shakedown 1979, cool kids never have the time.

G e A D

On a live wire right up off the street, you and I should meet.

G D

Junebug skipping like a stone,

G D

with the headlights pointed at the dawn

G Em A

we were sure we'd never see an end to it all.

D G D

And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues,

G D G

and we don't know just where our bones will rest to dust I guess,

Em A D -

forgotten and absorbed into the earth below.

2. Double cross the vacant and the bored,

G D

they're not sure just what we have in store.

G Em G

Morpine city slippin dues down to see.

D G D

That we don't even care as restless as we are,

G D

we feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts,

G A

and poured cement, lamented and assured

Bm G A Bm G

to the lights and towns below, faster than the speed of sound,

A Bm G Em A D

faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope.

G D

3. Justine never knew the rules,

G D

hung down with the freaks and the ghouls.

G D

No apologies ever need be made,

G Em A

I know you better than you fake it, to see

D G D

that we don't even care to shake these zipper blues,

G D

and we don't know just where our bones will rest,

G Em A D

to dust I guess, forgotten and absorbed into earth below.

G D

The street heats the urgency of sound,

G D

as you can see there's no one around.
