sound systems gonna bring me back up

A*  G*         D*
one thing that i can depend on
Verse 1:
A*
try to describe it to the limit of my ability

G*
it's there for a second then it's given up what it used to be

D*
contained in music somehow more than just around us
this inspirations coming and twisting things around us
A*
you always know that it's going to have to go

G*
you always know you'll be back in the cold

D*
point of departure sublimated in a song
it's always coming to give me that hope for just a seconb then it's gone, but! Repeat chorus
A*
static pulse inside the music bringing us escape

G*
it's always temporary changing nothing in it's wake

D*
just a second when we're leaving all this shit behind
just a second but it's leaving just this much in mind
A*
to resist despair, that second makes you see...

G*
to resist despair, because you can't change everything

D*
to resist despair, in this world is what it is to be free
Repeat chorus
A
wake up turn my box on

                             D  A
bust the shade let the sun in

                                                   D  A
Times are gettin' tougher, 'bout time to start runnin

                            D  A
box in hand music on my side
skankin' to the rhythm of the music by my side Repeat chorus A A A Repeat chorus
