Lyrics and chords:

Intro: F#, B, E, F#, F#, B, E, F#

    F#                 B
The Horizon has been defeated
       E                  F#
By the pirates of the new age
F#      B           E                      F#
Alien casinos, well maybe its just time to say
F#            B    E                   F#
Things can go bad, make you wanna run away
    F#         B          E                     C#
But as we grow older, the trouble just seems to stay


F#           B              E                   F#
Future complications in the strings between the cans
    F#                      B             E                 F#
But no prints can come from fingers, if machines become our hands
             F#              B                    E                 F#
And then our feet become the wheels, and then the wheels become the cars
             F#            B               E                    C#
And then the rigs begin to drill until the drilling goes too....far


F#            B    E                   F#
Things can go bad, make you wanna run away
    F#         B            E               C#    B     F#
But as we grow older, the horizon begins to fade, fade, fade
C#B   F#                                                      C#  B    F#
Fade away  <--This part is a bit confusing. Plays like this: Fay-hade away.


    F#               B
But thingamajigs are puzzles
E                         F#
Anger, don't you step too close
      F#                    B            E          F#
Cause people are lonely and only animals with fancy shoes


F#                  B        E                 F#
Hallelujahs zig zag nothing, misery is hard to lose
      F#                    B            E             C#
Cause people are lonely and only animals with too many tools
(D O N T  P L A Y  B E R E)  
That can build all the junk that we sell
(O R  B E R E)
Aw, some time, man, make you wanna yell


F#            B    E                  F#        
Things can go bad, make you wanna run away
    F#         B            E               C#B   F#
But as we grow older, the horizon begins to fade..away

C#B  F# 
Fade away
C#   B    F#
Fade fade fade
C#   B    F#
Fade fade fade

That's it. Enjoy! Tabbed by Jeff H.
