From: "Evan (Jackal) Hulka" <evahulk@nueva.pvt.k12.ca.us> Subject: CRD: Cease -- Bad Religion SONG: Cease AUTHOR: Greg Graffin ARTIST: Bad Religion ALBUM: The Gray Race YEAR: 1996 TABBED BY: The Jackal I got an advance copy of Bad Religion's new album, "The Gray Race" (as far as I know, it will be released March 5th). While this isn't (I guess)= the easiest song on the album to figure out (especially lyric-wise) it's the first one I've figured out so far, and IMHO one of the best, so enjoy! The lyrics are probably really screwed up by me, but from what I can make= of 'em, they're some of Greg Graffin's best. Hey, the man has a Ph.D. for= chrissakes! "Cease" -- Bad Religion

^BFlat top p^Aave-ment c^Gom-fort ^F#me Like a ch^Bemical reaction or a st^Aeamroller, spr^Geading randoml^F#y There=D5s a^B distant^A fuzz of a ^Gfrequ^F#ency It ti^Bckles my e^Aars, rustles u^Gnder my fe^F#et And it sh^Bakes the le^Aaves off of e^Gvery tr^F#ee ^GVio-l^Aent-l^F#y What prote^Bction e^Averlasting p^Geace ('') Everyt^Ahing must c^Bease

(same chords as before) In-sti-tu-tion on the hill Like a beacon in the mind of an ancestor to remind the people=D5s will ('') There=D5s a shadow stain on the west facade It is spread like a cave to entrap the pod (''') And the decent folks find it oh so odd Oh so odd What protection everlasting peace Everything must cease (pluck 6th string only -- this part is slow)

^BBrave me-^Amo-rials ^Ghewn white st^F#one Like the co^Bmforting caress of a mo^Ather or a fri^Gend you've always kn^F#own (strum from here -- resumes normal Bad Religion tempo) It ev^Bokes such p^Aain and sign^Gific^F#ance ^BWhat was once is ^Areduced to r^Gemembr^F#ance And the g^Benerations pa^Ass without r^Gecompe^F#nse ^GAa-a^Aaaa-^F#hhh...

Then the intro is: EED CCB. the basic chord pattern is E D C B (Black top pavement...) When it goes "Shakes the leaves off of..." C D B, and "Violently" is C B A. "Everything must cease" is E D C ... D E. If that's a little hard to understand, listen to the album. E. Hulka
