[Intro 1]
[Am][G][Am][F][Am][E][Am][G][F]
[Am][E]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Well the souvenirs
[G]On my dusty [F]shelf[G][Am][E]
Well I [Am]get out the Tarn- X,
[G]And I polish them my[F]self[G][Am][E]
Yes, [Am]posters are falling,
[G]But who needs them at my
[F]age?[Am][E]
[Am]Well I've learned to smile,
When [G]all I feel is [F]rage[Am][E]
[Am]So I

[Verse 2]
think I [D]will [Am]go to[G] Bakersfield
[E]With Gabriel and [F]Paul
And [Am]I will hide behind
[G]the garbage cans
While the [E]holy [F]platitudes fall
[Am]An d[C] blow the gates,
I am [G]coming through
With my [Am]al b[D]atrosses and all

[Verse 3]
And it's [Am]strategy not pro[D]tocol
Yes, it's [Am]strategy, not pro[D]tocol,
That brings me [E]here.

[Outro 1]
[F][Am][G][F][Am][E]
