first verse is the intro repeated
AThe bricks get laid,
and they get torn up,
and laid again,
but the bricks aC#mlways get torn up again.
AYour friends won't wait,
so don't believe that shit,
when they say they'll wait.
Trust me; your fC#mriends will not wait for you.
C#m - B - A
Then you'll be sAtoned in some B7park,
just nodding your hC#mead and pinching your arEms,
when a girl walks alAong.
She's humming your sB7ong,
with your t-shirC#mt on.
That's when you're dEone,
Oh, that's when you're donA2e...
A2-B2-A
AThere's a cotton crush
Adown in the southern states.
ABut back up here, man, we've got
so much tC#mhread and space
to waste, waste, waste.
C#m - B - A
AThere's a microphone
picking every word up
and it shuts itself off
when it's sure that's its hC#meard enough.....
The quiet Bcan scrAape
all the calm from your bBones,
but maybe it shC#mould.
Maybe we need to be hEollowed
to get up and growA,
and stop fucking arBound,
to kick off our bC#mraces and start straightening oEut.
Let's sift through the Astatic
to find a simpler sBound
Let's sift through the sC#mtatic
to find a simpler sEound...
A simpler sAound, a simpler sBound
simpler sC#mound than the shit that's cloEuding our heads nowA
