Thermoplastics

 
       Am 
In the desert heat 
He sweats down his brow 
        Em 
Seeking inner peace 
As the serpent prowls 
       D                                  E 
In the vast expansive land that they call home 
Am 
Hypnotized 
On subtle sways 
    Em 
The man gets stunned 
The serpent plays 
  D                                   E 
A brutal brawl to claim the crown and throne 
Am 
Engines roar 
And bolts corrode 
Em 
A civil war 
In morse code 
  D                         E 
A holocaust inferno sets us free 
Am 
Senile greed 
And puppet schemes 
Em 
Disturb the peace 
Recycle creeds 
  D                            E 
A button push will liberate us all from misery 
 

 
    Am 
The sunshine flares and my backs on fire 
Em 
Suguaros surrounds the empire 
D 
Spirits rise and shadows casted 
E                             Am 
Secrets mold to thermoplastics 
                        Em 
Aye dont you ever melt away 
                        D 
Aye dont you ever melt away 
                        E 
Aye dont you ever melt away 
In the heat of the Tucson sun aye 
 

 
Am 
First to go is our innocence 
Em 
Next to go is our fearlessness 
D                                     E 
Then one day, well be staring at the mirror 
Wondering how we used to be so full of life 
Am 
Life, life until the vultures eat our bodies 
Em 
A generation thats been digitized, now do you copy? 
D 
Everything means nothing if theres no one around 
         E 
And everything you love will one day will fade, and burn to the ground, hey 
 

 
    Am 
The sunshine flares and my backs on fire 
Em 
Suguaros surrounds the empire 
D 
Spirits rise and shadows casted 
E                             Am 
Secrets mold to thermoplastics 
                        Em 
Aye dont you ever melt away 
                        D 
Aye dont you ever melt away 
                        E 
Aye dont you ever melt away 
In the heat of the Tucson sun aye
