INTRO: D Db B Db
[D] [E] [B] [Db]
VERSE:
[D]He[A]'s[G] thinking of the hungry rats
Inside his stomach and he knows that
Nothing ever changes anyway
He can see himself there
He knows that look, it's called despair
His father taught him to wear it well
So he put his ear to the door of his youth
And he heard a groundswell of remorse now
CHORUS:
There's no [Bm]splendid iso[D]lation
For the a[E]bandoned gene[G]ration
It gets [F#m]hard[D] [B][G]
[F#m]to main[F#m]tain[D][B][G]
[F#m]When the [F#m]brightest of [D]shells[B]
[G]Weather and fade anywa[F#m]y
[F#m]Do what you [D]can[B] be[G]fore it's too late[F#m]
