Hey, yo, welcome to the blue plate special
I'm gonna play another song from the the American fork album, and I guess this album is slightly topical
It's got a little bit of that going on with it.
I think any songwriter worth his salt certainly one that's passed through
Okemah, Oklahoma
is gonna feel a little bit of that the fact that the the this great country that we live in is a
Traveling down a bit of a path that involves many forks and many decisions to be made [Gm] sir
There's a song
Where the album gets its title and there's a song called [C] killing time
[Bb] [Eb]
[Gm] Come on, yi-am
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] Nonconformist
[Bb] Listening to my [Eb] song
Let's take it full time
for the sake [Eb]
of
[Bb] Sounding me along
They say [Dm] that youth is
[Eb] Wasted on the young in that you can't teach an old [F] dog something new
But I say [Dm] rock and roll
Can [Eb] still change the world so [Bb] don't let your youth be wasted [F] on you
[Bb] Don't hang there like [Eb] a broken [Bb] door
Find out what you're living for
[Eb] [Gm] There has to be something [Fm] more than just killing [Eb] time
[Bb]
That don't go much for
[Bb] preachy bitches
[Eb] [Bb] Who act like they ain't [Eb] going to hell?
But it's so true that as you get older
[C] [Bb] the hindsight rings clear as [Eb] a bell I
[Dm] understand how
[Eb] Much cooler it can be [Bb] to act like you don't [F] give a damn
But [Dm] while you were sleeping [Eb] on your
Generations watch [Bb] your sworn enemies were [F] shaking hands
[Eb] They hang you like a broken [Bb]
door
[G] And sell [Eb] you what you think you're living [Bb]
for
[Gm] Happy that you'll never [F]
know
Until it's killing [Eb] time
[Bb]
[C] [Cm] Happy to [Ab] never know
[F] Remind me what we're fighting for
Just to get [Bm] up and go [C] to [Cm] work
Eat your
[Eb] American pie
[Bb] [F] with your
American [Eb]
soul
[Bb] Nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah
[Eb] Now
We [C] all [Dm] get broken down
[Eb] By the ways of the world [C] in the flames of our [F] disappearing youth
[Dm] But you can't react [Eb] when you're paralyzed
[Bb] So don't let the fire be wasted [F] on you
[Bb] Start burning [Eb] down the broken doors
Find [Eb] out exactly what you're living [Bb] for
[Gm]
Happy just to never [F] know
Yeah, [Eb] there has to be something [F] more
[Gm] There has to be something [C] more than just killing [Eb] time
Nah, [Bb] nah, nah, nah
[Gm] Nah, nah, [Bb] nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Thank you
[Ab]
