F#m G D
Well you sure didn't look like you were having any fun
F#m G D
with that heavy-metal gaze they'll have to measure in tons
G D
and when you look up at the sky
G D G D A A7
all you see are zeros all you see are zeros and ones
D G A D
you took my hand and lead me down to watch a kewpie doll parade
D G A D
we let the kittens lick our hair and drank our chalky lemonade
D G A D
it's not that I just didn't care I must admit I was afraid
D G A7 D
and I'm awfully glad my finger's resting gently on the masterfade
F#m G D
the masterfade I coulda played along
F#m G D G D
the masterfade I coulda played Mah Jongg but it just takes too long
G D G D
and I just can't remember which way the east wind blows
A Em A Em
does it matter? If we're all matter what's it matter does it matter
A
if we're all matter when we're done?
Em A EA7m
when the sky is full of zeros and ones

D G A D
I saw you standing all alone in the electrostatic rain
D G A D
I thought at last I'd found a situation you can't explain
D G A D
with GPS you know it's all just a matter of degrees
D G A D
your happiness won't find you underneath that canopy of trees
F#m G D
if the green grass is 6 the soybeans are 7
F#m G D
the junebugs are 8 the weeds and thistles are 11
G D G D
and if the 1s just hold thier place the 0s a smiley face
G D A A7
when they come floating down from the heavens
D G A D
you took my hand and lead me down to watch a papillon parade
D G A D
we let the kittens lick our hair and drank our chalky lemonade
D G A D
you squeezed my hand and told me softly that I shouldn't be afraid
D G D A D
'cause all the while your finger's resting gently on the masterfade
F#m G D F#m
the masterfade I coulda played along the masterfade
G D G D
I coulda played Mah Jongg but it just takes too long
G D G D
and who the hell can remember which way the east wind blows
A D A7 A
when your lying on the ground staring up at an inverted compass
D
I mean Christ who Knows?
