	  		Intro: D F# Bm G x3 A 

Verse 1: 

D     Bm           A             D 
We go down to throw rocks at the river 

      Bm         A 
Curses at the parade 

G         Bm           A           G 
We're just stoning the gears of the clockworks 

       A                      D 
Try to keep us from acting our age 

Bm              A               D                  Bm           A 
We swore we'd carry on like this forever, 'til the free spirits bled. 

G          Bm       A           G 
But now can you believe who's a mother, and that 

A                            (D) 
so-and-so's cut of their dreads... 


D F# Bm        G      D F#        Bm     G   D 
      Kill of Columbus    and turn the world around 

      F#     Bm         G        A 
After all the nomads are settling down 



Verse2: 

D       Bm            A            D 
Used to give most the bread to her landlord  

          Bm            A 
leave the crust for the squats. 

G        Bm             A            G 
Now the death weighed as we paid the bankers. 

            A                       D 
Seemed to kill all the flies in one swat. 

Bm               A                D                   Bm            A 
Hear the wedding band strike up a number. Dear they're playing our song.  

G         Bm           A              G 
Hold your breath cause we're gonna go under;  

A                             (D) 
get the little ones singing along. 


D F# Bm        G      D F#        Bm     G   D 
      Kill of Columbus    and turn the world around 

      F#     Bm         G        A 
After all the nomads are settling down    x2 



Bridge: 

  G             Bm                        A   
No way, not to so-and-so said he'd never change 

         G          Bm A 
said he'd never grow. 

G                     Bm           
We'd stay always on a role 

A                                  G         Bm A 
run besides the trains past the mossy stones. 

                F#                     Bm 
Now there's more hope than ever and its all fallin' 

             G                     A        (play verse chords: D Bm A x2 G Bm A G A D) 
down and the rebels are running for mayor in your hometown. 


Verse3: 

D      Bm          A             D        Bm 
As the nomads are dropping their anchors. Falling 

         A    G        Bm               A 
into the sea. And I've stopped throwing rocks at the 

G       A                              D        
river. Now you'll find me a swimmin up stream. There 

   Bm       A          D               Bm          A 
is power in unions of ramblers that got nothing to own. 

G           Bm          A             G 
But there's more in one fist swing in mothers swearin, 

A 
"my children shall never be sold!" 


Chorus a few times 


Outro 

D     F#   Bm   G  D  F# Bm  G  D (and so on) 
Out of the garden we multiply. Telling 


our stories. May all the old ways die.
