Readin' too much, and losing my head and I was.
Em
 Reaching forward; I was already there,

Readin' too much and losing my head.
Em
 This information caused a cut in the line,

Now I'm re-membering God and readin'; this is too much; it's so nice.

Words to be said, and food to be fed, but I won't be there.
                                               A
I'll be clutching on a megaphone pointed at my head; would you be there?
                 Em
Would you kindly, read this word for word, so loud and clear?
           A
I can't re-member it all, it needs to be clear, I tell you;
Em                                                 A
 If the feeling drops out of your voice, would you kindly pick it up?

We're talking everything you need; you should be working now.
                                           A
Not only asking how and the whereabouts of where you'll be;
I don't suspect you will be thinking.
Em                                              A
 When the brain is dead, and the mind has taken over;
                               Em
This is a skill; this is not a game.
Where have you been; are you with us? Can you hear us?

Got the megaphone pointed at you.

13...WHITE DISCUSSION... by Live
------------------------........

*from 'Throwing Copper' (1994)*


Intro:

E  D  C#m  C, D (x3), E  D  C#m

Verse 1:

E          D       C#m
 I talk of freedom,
C         D      E    D  C#m  C  D
 You talk of the flag.
E               D      C#m
 I talk of revo-lution,
C           D      E    D  C#m  C  D
 You'd much rather brag.

           E                D             C#m
And as the decibals of this disenchanting discourse,
    C         D         E   D  C#m  C  D
Con-tinues to drive the day.
    E                       D                     C#m
The coin flips again, and a-gain, and again and a-gain,
       C      D       E   D  C#m  C  D
As our sanity walks a-way.

Verse 2:

E             D       C#m
 All this dis-cussion;
          C       D  E       D  C#m  C  D
Though po-litical-ly correct,
E                   D        C#m
 Is dead beyond des-truction,
          C         D       E    D  C#m  C  D
Though it leaves me quite e-rect.

           E            D                C#m
And as the final sunset rolls behind the Earth,
        C        D       E    D  C#m  C  D
And the clock is finally dead.
E                         D                           C#m
 I'll look at you, you'll look at me, and we'll cry a lot,
    C            D       E    D  C#m  C                     D
But this will be what we said,         this will be what we said.
