           shake down 1979
riff 2                       riff 1
cool kids never have the time
riff 2                               F#m7sus     B           riff 1
on a live wire right up off the street, you and i should meet
riff 2                       riff 1
junebug skipping like a stone
riff 2                                  riff 1
with the head lights pointed at the dawn
riff 2                         F3msus     B
we were sure we'd never see an end to it all
    E       Em7  riff 2                           E
and i don't even care to shake these zipper blues
    Em7      riff 2                         E       Em7
and we don't know just where our bones will rest to dust 
  riff 2                       F#msus   B          riff 1
i guess forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
  riff 2    riff 1
  riff 2    riff 1
riff 2                               riff 1
double cross the vacant and the bored
riff 2                                     riff 1
they're not sure just what we have in store
riff 2                 F#m         A
morphine city  slippin dues down to see
     E        Em7  riff 2                  E
that we don't even care as restless as we are
    Em7     riff 2                              E
we feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts 
    Em7    riff 2                  B
and poured cement, lamented and assured
                        C#5   A
to the lights and towns below 
B5               C#5         A
faster than the speed of sound
B5           C#5              A F#m7sus     B            riff 1
faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope
riff 2                      riff 1
justine never knew the rules
riff 2                              riff 1
hung down with the FREAKS and ghouls
riff 2                        riff 1
no apologies ever need be made
riff 2                     F#m7sus      B
i know you better than you fake it, to see
     E         Em7 riff 2                      E
that we don't even care to shake these zipper blues
    Em7      riff 2                           E       Em7   riff 2
and we don't know just where our bones will rest, to dust i guess
                 F#m7sus       B          riff 1
fogotten and absorbed into the earth below
riff 2                             riff 1
the street heats the urgency of now
riff 2                      E      E
