While you were asleep

They blew up the embassy

A 300 floor hotel

With just one fire escape

Former life hippies with eyes that gleam

A Zippo-lighter greatest generation dream

I'll kneel and say a prayer for you

We had a real good run
C#m G#m G#
At the commune today
A E
We achieved full contact for over six hours
A E
Shouting July, July, July
C#m
But then we got real tired
C
And the buildings keep getting taller
Am E
But the people stay the same
E F#m
You've feathered your nest, and you've spirited away
A C
Each spectacular year in the bed where you lay
E F#m
Now clucking your tongue, what must be must be
A C
Oh what a terrible shame for my friends and me
E F#m

Oh but you bit the bullet, you inheritors of the stars
A C
I'll bet you gave up on your children the way you gave up on Mars
E F#m
So simple to say, so easy to take
A C
When the lives are a stage show and the gunshots are fake
E F#m
So drink up your wine now, the red and the white
A C
But you could have done something, you could have left on the light
