=== VERSE 1 ===
A A
Try not to think so much about the truly staggering...
E E7 F#m
amount of oil that it takes to make a record.
B
All the shipping, the vinyl, the cellophane lining...
E E7
the high gloss. The tape and the gear.
A A
Try not to become too consumed with what's a criminal...
E E7 F#m
volume of oil that it takes to paint a portrait.
B
The acrylic, the varnish, aluminum tubes filled...
E E7
with latex. The solvents and dye. Ohh oh ohh.
=== CHORUS 1 ===
F#m E E7 E/C# E/C E

When it's my time to go…
E E7 A
I'm gonna leave behind things that won't decompose.

a bunch of 15 year olds made from dinosaur bones...
E E7
singing 'oh yeah' again and again right up til...
=== CHORUS 2 ===
F#m E E7 E/C# E/C E
the end. Lets just call this what it is.
A A/F F#m
The jealous side of mankind's death wish.
F#m7 B7
When it's my time to go…
E E7 A A/F
I'm gonna leave behind things that won't decompose. Ohh oh ohh.
F#m E E7 E/C# E/C E
I'll just call this what it is.
A A/F F#m
A vanity gone wild with a crisis.
F#m7 B7
One day this all will repeat.
E E7 A
I sure hope they make something useful out of me.
