Verse 1:
A         E
Old James Dean Monroe
D                        A      E 
Hands out flowers at the shop-n-go
A                   E              D    A   E     
Hopes for money but all he gets is fear
        A          E   
And the wind blows up his coat
    D                      A       E
And this he scribbles on a perfume note
    A       E                     D    A    E
"If I'm not here, then you're not here"

And he says,
 A    E  D      A
"Call me miscreation,
D     A        D   E
I'm a walking celebration"

Chorus:
         A                   E   D   A   E
And it's hard to make a stand          
           A                   E   D   A   E
Yeah, it's hard to make a stand
             A                   E   D   A   E
I think it's hard to make a stand
         A                   E   D   A   E
Oh, it's hard to make a stand

Verse 2:
A         E
My friend, o lawdy
D                    A       E
Went to take care of her own body
A            E               D   A   E
But she got shot down in the road
A                E
She looked up before she went
       D                 A      E
Said, "this isn't really what I meant"
        A          E                     D  A  E
And the daily news said, "two with one stone"

And I say,
 A     E     D     A 
"Hey, there, miscreation,
D       A       D        E
Bring a flower, time is wasting"

Chorus:
         A                   E   D   A   E
And it's hard to make a stand
         A                   E   D   A   E
Oh, it's hard to make a stand
         A                   E   D   A   E
Oh, it's hard to make a stand
             A                   E   D   A   E
I think it's hard to make a stand

Yes it is

Verse 3:
       A                 E
We got loud guitars and quite suspicions
D                   A      E
Big, big guns and small ambitions
A            E                 D   A   E
And we still argue over who is God

And I say,      
 A    E     D    E
"Hey there, miscreation
D      A      D   E
We all need a revelation"

I say, 
 A   E      D    E
"Hey there, miscreation
D      A      E
We all need a celebration"
