1ª Parte
E
I don't care if it rains or freezes
A
as long as I've got my plastic Jesus
E B
sitting on the dashboard of my car
E
it comes in colors pink and pleasant
A
it glows in the dark cause its iridescent
E B E
I'll take it with me whenever I go far
E
so give me my lady Madonna
A
dressed in rhinestones and sitting on a
E B
pedestal of abalone shells
E
driving 90 but I'm not scared
A
because I've got my Virgin Mary
E B E
assuring me that I will never go to hell
E
And by the way You know that
E
hope will make you strange
E
Make you blink, make you blank, make you sink
E A
It will make you afraid of change
A
And often blame
A
The box with the view of the world
E
And the walls that fill the frame
E
I turn it up
E
but then I turn it off
E
Because I can't stand when they start to talk
A
About the hurting and killing
A
Whose shoes are we filling
A
The damage and ruin
A
Man, the things that we're doing
E
Good god, We gotta stop, we gotta turn it all off
E
We gotta rewind
E
and start it up again
Riff (B)
A
ain't there nothing sacred anymore
A E
Nana nana nana na
A, E, A, E, A, E
E
Somebody saw him jump
E
But nobody saw him slip
E
I guess he lost a lot of hope
E
And then he lost his grip
A
Now he's lying in the freeway
A
In the middle of this mess
A
Guess we lost another one
A
Just like the other one
E
Optimistic hypocrite
E
That didn't have the nerve to quit
E
The things that kept him wanting more
E
Until he finally reached the core
Riff (B)
A
ain't there nothing sacred anymore

All my friends are getting older,
B C#m
I guess I must be too.
A
Without their love and kindness
B
I don't want I'll do
A E
Oh the wine bottle's half empty
B C#m
The money's all been spent
A
We're a cross between our parents
B
And hippies in a tent.
A E
Oh, Love calls just like a wild bird
B C#m
It's just another day
A B E
Spring blew my list of things to do away.

A E A
In a mucked up lovely river

I cast my my little fly

But I look at that river and I smell it and

To clean our dirty planet

Now I putting shoulder to the wheel

Cause I wanna catch some fish, Oh
