Ray decided to be silly after all,
   Ebm (xx4342@1)                        Ab (xx1114@1)  
He died a thousand times in the Viet war,
Ebm (xx4342@1)                            Ab (xx1114@1)  
So he strapped himself in and he took his chances,
F# (244322@1)                  Ab (xx1114@1)  
Into the valley of the bird absurd,

Ebm (xx4342@1)                             Ab (xx1114@1)  
I don't remember what it was the old man said,
   Ebm (xx4342@1)                           Ab (xx1114@1)  
I know I'd tempted fate a thousand times before,
Ebm (xx4342@1)                              Ab (xx1114@1)  
So we strapped ourselves in and we took some chances,
F# (244322@1)                    Ab (xx1114@1)  
And had a fight for the brother who can be,

Looking for the waste land,
              Ebm (xx4342@1)    Ab (xx1114@1)

We decided all for all and all for one,
    Ebm (xx4342@1)                    Ab (xx1114@1)
And when I do I really wanna go in style,
Ebm (xx4342@1)                        Ab (xx1114@1)
So without a sense of reason we explored life,
F# (244322@1)                         AbLike (xx1114@1)throwing stoned into the great unknown of
