Back

At The Bottom Of Eveything Tab

by Bright Eyes


Intro: C F G   (listen for the rythem)


Verse:
                                                 
We must talk in every telephone, get eaten off the web 
                                                       
We must rip out all the epilogues from the books we have read 
                                          
And to the face of every criminal strapped firmly in a chair 
                                    
We must stare, we must stare, we must stare 

                                                     
We must take all of the medicines too expensive now to sell 
                                           
Set fire to the preacher who is promising us hell 
                                         
And in the ear of every anarchist who sleeps but doesn't dream 
                                  
We must sing, we must sing, we must sing "And it'll go like this" 


Chorus:
                       
While my mother waters plants 
                   
my father loads his gun.
                             
He says, "Death will give us back to god, 
                   
just like the setting sun 
 
is returned to the lonesome ocean." 


Intro is played again 

 during the solo, the same chord progression as the verses is played


Verse:
                                                    
We must blend into the choir, sing a static with the whole
                                                
We must memorize nine numbers and deny we have a soul
                                          
And to this endless race for property and privilege to be won
                                
We must run, we must run, we must run 

                                                        
We must hang up in the belfry where the bats in moonlight laugh
                                                  
We must stare into a crystal ball and only see the past
                                        
And in the caverns of tomorrow with our flashlights and our love
                                       
We must plunge, we must plunge, we must plunge 

 
And then we'll get down there, way down to the very bottom of everything 

and then we'll see it, we'll see it, we'll see it 


Chorus:
                          
Oh my morning's coming back 
                       
The whole worlds waking up
                   
Oh the city bus is swimming past
             
I'm happy just because 
  
I found out I am really no one


End:
