PAVEMENT- STEREO Brighten the Corners (1997)

Verses technically are ^N.C as there's no guitar and the bass repeats the intro, but if you want to play it acoustically or whatever just do A the whole time.

^APigs, they tend to wiggle when they walk ^AThe infrastructure rots ^AAnd the owners hate the jocks ^AWith their agents and their dates ^AIf the signatures are checked (You'll just have to wait) ^AAnd we're counting up the instants that we save ^ATired nation so depraved ^AFrom the cheap seats see us ^AWave to the camera ^AIt took a giant ramrod ^ATo raze the demon settlement
