[E] [Em] A long, [Bm] long time ago, [A] I got to play drum on a record by a band called [N] Queens of the Stone Age.
They were kind [A] of friends of mine and the best rock and roll band in the world.
The [C#] good thing about Queens of the Stone Age is that they [A] have a lot of friends that [N] play really wonderful music and write really beautiful songs.
Fortunately, Queens of the Stone Age had a friend like Alan and Yohannes [C#] to write a song like this.
[N] One of their songs for Death Raven in the album is called Hanging Trees.
