_ Why now?
That's always the first question.
Why now?
And I always say, Bin Laden.
_ I was waiting for his demise.
Now I'm free. _

_ _ [E] _ I have really been more than ever going into my back catalog, [Bm] which [G] is part of my story.
I have 400 [E] albums, and people say, that's impossible.
Are they all good?
I mean, this can't be [C] real.
But I've been home recording since 1966.
[D] _ So do the math.
It's not [A] really any big deal.
I'm always recording good stuff, bad stuff.
I don't really try to rank the best over the worst,
because I love bad music, and a lot of my fans love [B] bad music, noisy music, lo-fi, [Em] blah, blah, blah.
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ [C#] _ _ [F#] _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ [G] _ [E] Hello.
Welcome _ [D] _ _ [E] to our concert.
[D] We are [E] pleased that you spent your evening with us.
[Bm] Be _ [E] prepared [Bm] for some [E] wonderful sound that is of great variety _ and _ _ spontaneity.
_ I love the fact that it's an acquired taste.
[C] My music is extremely diverse,
and my _ religion is variety.
_ And if you listen to all of my home tapes or my original music,
it always jumps all over the place, like mixtapes, like a freeform radio show.
And I would really like to [Dm] take that on stage, but for right now, we're pretty much just a hard-cock rock band. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D#] _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Finally, things [G] have come around.
I guess I've paid my dues, as they say, because so many years, so [G#m] many recordings.
[A] And I was doing, [G#] long before the Internet, I was doing stuff that's commonplace now.
The joke is that I'm just getting started this late in life, [G] and people are loving it.
It's perfect, because I'm an old hippie, but I'm also _ definitely a young, _
[N] confused little boy, punk.
_ _ [G]
