There is basically no change in the theme after Conor sings "Let´s *** it up boys, make some noise!", that´s just the trumpet part. You may improvise (do not forget to hit the C on the b-string after each note) during the noisy solo part and come back to the main theme for the last verse. Just finish on a C major chord. The sun came up with no conclusions Flowers sleeping in their beds the city cemetary´s humming I´m wide awake it´s morning I´ve got my drugs, I´ve got my woman they keep away my lonliness my parents they´ve got their religion but sleep in different houses I read the Body count out of the paper now it´s written all over my face noone plans to sleep out in the gutter sometimes that´s just the most comfortable place So I´m writting, drinking, strumming, singing every day I´m on the clock my mind races with all my longings but I can´t keep up with what I got So I hope I don´t sound too ungrateful what history gave modern men a telephone to talk to strangers machine guns and a camera lense So when you´re asked to fight a war that´s over nothing it´s best to join the side that´s gonna win and noone knows how all of this got started but we´re gonna make them goddamn certain how it´s gonna end oh yeah, we will oh yeah, we will Well, I could have been a famous singer if I had someone else´s voice but failure´s always sounded better let´s *** it up boys make some noise The sun came up with no conclusions Flowers sleeping in their beds the city cemetary´s humming I´m wide awake it´s morning
