When Something Stands For Nothin by the Headstones arranged by Jeff Kerr
intro: (E5D5A) x4, pause...
EDAEDA When something stands for nothin, a detached memory EDAEDA This one's about everythin you don't think about until you sleep EDAEDA This one's for nothin, and this one's for fun, EDAEDA This one's about rock n' roll, and comic books and bubble gum
E5D5A... Ooh ooh ooh...
Well each day offers somethin, but none of it'll last Unless you, ya take the reigns, take em from the knight, Push the pawn right through the pass. And this one's for the silence, and the questions that it brings And the smell of time and the reverence, and the possibilities
Ooh ooh ooh...
Ya double up the foreground, ya put it on a slide, Inspect it with your perfect ways, until it burns your eyes And this one's for nothin, and this one's for fun And this one's about rock n' roll and comic books and bubble gum
