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] [Bm]
[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]
You [F#] don't know how much I [C#] love you.
You have no idea what a year it's been for old Arsene.

[Bm] the [F#] winner.
[G] He spends [D] his life in [Am] a box of [Em]
ideas he [B] can't use.
[A]
[G] But [D] every night, you can't [C] find [Em] him alone.
A [Am] [A] loser.
[D] And he's one himself.
[Em] There's just ain't no better.
The winner.
[A]
[D] And he needs a friend.
[Bm] Because it's got to be [C] the end.
[Am] The [Bm] winner.

When [Em] he is [A] a [Bm]
loser.
[Am] A [E] loser.
[A] The winner is [E] a sinner.
Has [G] a winner [D] for his dinner.
