[Verse 1]
Em C
In the wilderness uncountable voices
G C, E?
Earplugs for the birds and the animals
Em C
And blinders for your beast of burden,
G
The will for learning
C, E?
These books were made for burning
Em C
in the wilderness
G C E? Em C
Beneath the ancient sand lies crushed and tanned those sapphire girls
G C, E?
May we never forget you
[Chorus]
D
Alert status red
Em C
But the sun comes up instead
[Verse 2]
Em C
In the wilderness the only place to find freedom
G
is in the dictionary
C, E?
Under "F"
Em C
Men in holes, men in caves, men in chains
G
I ask but the store clerk needn't check
C, E? Em
Man I forget which came first
C G
The bad idea or me befallen by it?
C, E? Em c, G, C, E?
Not giving a shit may we never forget you
[Chorus 2]
D
Alert status red
Em C
But the sun comes up instead
D
Alert status red
Em C
But the sun comes up instead

[Verse 3]
Em
In the wilderness
C G
Senile live the zealous
C E? Em
Lost to the treasures that compel us
C G C, E?
Muted down like patriots amiss
Em C G
You know I'm jealous of how you can just turn them off
C E? Em C
Those bad ideas that feel so soft
G C, E?
May they never forget you
[Chorus 3]
D

But the sun comes up instead
D
Alert status red
Em C
But the sun comes up instead
