Chords

[Intro] N.C. Cool One, two, one, two, three, four [Verse 1]
A                          G
  Electric waves a rush of energy

        D                      A
Silent river pouring backward eternally

                               G
Through the phase and touch of entropy

    D
Old age in the beginner

A                                   G
  To hit the stage and blush wild, laughingly

           D                  A
Crush the rage and rush time tappingly

                          G
Call the name so much so vapidly

    D
Dissolving into thin air

A                                G
  Turning the two-fork taped up television

D                  A
Into tunnel vision

                            G
Taking the new fork tactile as revision

Working the revision

 There is no reason to go down alonе

            D                A
Through distortion’s secret telеphone

                      G
Separate contact separate

 D                  A
Poison in the ether

                          G
Swinging still incessant pendulum

      D              A
Lavender, nettle, calendula

Separate, contact, concentrate

Drawing out the fever

     Ether... Time
A G D It's music... It's music Oso [Verse 3]
A                         G
 Only the winter wind survives

          D                       A
After the heat rush feeds and thrives

                              G
After the bushfire burns and dies

  D
Frozen and bitter

A                            G
 Desert ground so cold and clean

          D               A
Spreading out like a magazine

                           G
Reading the dirt like gossip

             D
What do the weeds say? They say

 A                                           G
“Everything, everything, everything falls through

                 D        A
Each dimension breaks in two

                            G
Like the two hands clapping

         D
Like the two wings flapping

A                                       G
Everything, everything, everything for free

       D             A
As it all eventually

                        G
Turns to dust and petal

D
  Molten rock and meadow”
[Chorus]
A    G          D
Time   escaping

A    G          D
Time   escaping
