How long have we known each other now? Five, ten years, and I
A (x4) C (x4)
guess we've changed, and we'd
A (x4) C (x4)
run into each other in the subterranean
D (x8)
world... With the extras in their fright wigs and fins
F (x8)
on their way from funkhole to dugout... and
D (x8)
one night would keel over into another,
and there never would seem to be a day, and
F (x8)
hey, you used to say you were polishing up on your survival tactics
D (x8)
(techinques) for the end of the world... and
C (x4) A# (x4)
you, you used to dig your beak into my ear and say "nothing"
F (x4) A# (x4)
like a secret...
D(Gbass) (x4) C(Fbass) (x4) D(Gbass) (x4) C(Fbass) (x4)
How long have we known each other now? Fifteen, twenty years maybe, and
C (x4) A# (x4)
certainly we've changed... and we'd
C (x4) A# (x4)
run into each other in the subterranean
D (x8)
world...
C (x8)
And before I knew you or before we met
oh yes, way before then I was
D (x8)
itching in the cradle, making my way to the slime pits & the sludge traps
F (x8)
looking for love... and
D (x8)
all the bushy brats turned out from the western burgs
C (x8)
minced in the powdermills, noctambulating around
D (x8)
nowheresville
D (x8)
and some were so desperate for sleep the only retreat was the
C (x4) A# (x4) F (x4) A# (x4)
sad dormitory... yes, one would go for a rest (or a test?)
D(Gbass) (x4) C(Fbass) (x4) D(Gbass) (x4) C(Fbass) (x4)
How long have we known each other now? up to thirty years I guess, and
C (x4) A# (x4)
maybe we've changed... and
C (x4) A# (x4)
didn't we see each other in the subterranean
D (x8)
world?
F (x8)
You, did you really have your headress? - Hmmm.... yes
I used to dress up
D (x8)
like a girl, and how did you ever make it back home? I... I...
F (x8)
I'd leave a trail of pearls. Did you ever see a doctor - or a priest?
D (x8)
oh yeah - a priest
D (x8)
do you remember the guy with the sign "the end is nigh"? That was
F (x8)
me (do you remember what was written on the back?)
D (x8)
and
F (x8)
Do remember the guy with a boxful of wind? or maybe it was a cassette
D (x8)
I don't really... I don't know either - or was it me?
C (x4) A# (x4) F (x4) A# (x4)
D (x8) F (x8)
How long have we known each other now? I've never seen you in my life
(forty years?)
D (x8) F (x8)
How long have we known each other now? I've never seen you in my life
(fifty years)
C (x8) A# (x8)
How long have we known each other now? I've never seen you in my life
(sixty, seventy, eighty three years)
C (x4) A# (x4)
I hope that we've changed... and
C (x4) A# (x4)
we've never seen each other in the subterranean
A (x8) C (x8) D (finish)
life...
