blacktop pavement cover me
Am Dm F G
like a chemical reaction or a steamroller , spreading randomly
Am G F C
there’s a distant buzz and low frequency
Am G F C C/G
it tickles my ears , rumbles under my feet
Dm Dm/F C G
and it shakes the leaves off of every tree

in – sti – tu – tion on the hill
Am Dm F G
like a beacon in the mind of an ancestor to ignite a people’s will
Am G F C
there’s a shadow stain on the west facade
Am G F C C/G
it has spread like decay to enshroud the fraud
Dm Dm/F C G F C G
and the descendents find it oh so odd , oh so odd

grave memorial , hewn white stone
Am Dm F G
like the comforting caress of a mother or a friend you’ve always known
Am G F C
it evokes such pain and significance
Am G F C C/G
what was once is reduced to rememberence
Dm Dm/F C G
and the generations pass without recompense

what pretention everlasting peace
F F/F# G G/G#
eve – ry – thing must . . . cease .
