The White Buffalo


Tom: G

Am       D               G
I don't know what age it is
                C
Better hole up inside
Am         D
I don't belong
                  G
in these modern times

C

        G
Escape the past
        C
Dream of another
          G
Call all the guards
              G
Looks like we got a runner
              G
Kick off the dogs
              C
Corporate invasion
                        D           G
You can't gentrify the soul of a nation
    Am      D
And I swear the buildings
         G
Moved to me overnight
C   Am     D
I don't belong
            G
in these modern times

C

G
Can't find the Lord

He's shaking hands with Big Brother
                                          C
Can't hide forever in the womb of your mother
G
All aboard
                    C
It's a permanent vacation
           G
Bathe in the water of your mind's mutilation
Am           D
And I swear the buildings
        G
Move to me overnight
C   Am      D               G
I'm holding on to days gone by
     C
gone by
           D
I don't belong
              G
in the modern time

C

G                                      C
The oaks and the sage in the fields of gold
                                D
Birds and bees ain't never been told
                                G
The end is near as the morning light
                                        C
In the maze in the mold I can't see the light
                                          D
It fades like the days and the fire in my eyes
                               C
Destiny laughs in the face of denial
                   D
As the world spins by
                G
