------------------------------------------------------------------------------




Intro:             ... Gm    | F     | F7    |

             | Bb    | Gm    | F     | F7    |

             | Bb    | -     |

(The Intro is only an album-thing; it is never played live, where they simply 
 begin right on the Verse.)




Verse 1:     | Bb    | -     | -     | -     |

             | F     | -     | F7    | -     |

             | Gm    | -     | C7    | -     |

             | F     | -     | F7    | -     |

            " Try not to think so much about
              the truly staggering amount
              of oil that it takes to make a record
              All the shipping, the vinyl, the cellophane lining, the high gloss
              The tape and the gear



Verse 2
            " Try not to become too consumed
              with what's a criminal volume
              of oil that it takes to paint a portrait
              The acrylic, the varnish, aluminum tubes filled with latex
              The solvents and dye



Chorus 1:    | Gm    | -  C7 | F     | F7    |

             | Bb    | D7    | Gm    | Gm/F  |

             | C7    | -     | F     | F7    |

             | Bb    | -     |

            " Oh, let's just call this what it is
              The gentler side of mankind's death wish
              When it's my time to go
              Gonna leave behind things that won't decompose



Verse 3
            " Try not to dwell so much upon
              how it won't be so very long
              from now that they laugh at us for selling
              a bunch of 15 year-olds made from dinosaur bones singing 'oh yeah'
              Again and again
              Right up to the end



Chorus 2
            " Let's just call this what it is
              The gentler side of mankind's death wish
              When it's my time to go
              Gonna leave behind things that won't decompose



Chorus 3      (End on Bb after the last F7.)

            " Oh, I'll just call this what it is
              My vanity gone wild with my crisis
              One day this all will repeat
              I sure hope they make something useful out of me
