[Verse]
A F Bm D Boats ease into the harbor bearing real suspicious cargo A C#m Bm D And the sunlight on the water sets a switch off in your brain A F Bm D The things that you've got coming will consume you A C#m Bm D There's someone waiting out there in an alley with a chain
A F Bm D
A C#m Bm D
A F Bm D The ghosts that haunt your building are prepared to take on substance A C#m Bm D And the dull pain that you live with isn't getting any duller A F Bm D There's a closet full of almost-pristine videotape A C#m Bm D Documenting sordid little scenes in living color
[Chorus]
A A7 D/F# Here they come Bm D The young thousands A A7 D/F# Here they come Bm D The young thousands
A F Bm D
A C#m Bm D
[Verse]
A F Bm D You drive east from the ocean with both hands tied on the wheel A C#m Bm D And you go past Garden Grove as the pleasure index rises A F Bm D The things that you've got coming will do things that you're afraid to A C#m Bm D There is someone waiting out there with a mouthful of surprises
A F Bm D
A C#m Bm D
A F Bm D The ghosts that haunt your building have been learning how to breathe A C#m Bm D They scan the hallways nightly vainly searching for a sign A F Bm D There must be diamonds somewhere in a place that stinks this bad A C#m Bm D There are brighter things than diamonds coming down the line
[Chorus]
A A7 D/F# Here they come Bm D The young thousands A A7 D/F# Here they come Bm D The young thousands
