bury me in analog
G C G C
So I got a stack of tapes, Got a name and maybe date,
G C Em D
They're gonna be worth Something someday
G C G C
That is if I pop that song, Just about three minutes long,
G C Em D
'Bout how you told me wrong Or make the outrage safe
G C G C
And if before my time I decide to take my life
G C Em D
You could take these treasures And pull them up into light
G C G C
Make every song a gem, Take every one of them,
G C Em D
Release a collection Of cacophonic hits
C G D Em D
And remix, and remaster, My disasters
C G D Em
Our first-track words And never before heard
D C C
Acoustic takes, it's yours, From the shoebox to the online store
G C Em D
Bury me in analog, Pull the reels up
G C Em D
Nearly burn that water log, And release it
C G
They bought it, you sold it
D Em
Got nothin' for everyone
C G
They bought it, you sold it
D Em
Got nothin' for everyone
G C G C
And when it goes out of print, You could then re-issue it
G C Em D
Trade off the publishin' rights, To the highest bid
G C G C
To a queen or king of pop, Sell revolution off,
G C Em D
It's an investment, man, I can't make this stuff up
G C G C
And the brats I leave behind Will party every night
G C Em D
And sleep all day 'til five, And live the trust fund life
G C G C
An they'll call the radio, Complain and curse and moan
G C Em D
'Bout how everybody thinks, It's cake to live this way
C G D Em D
And my grave will be showered With the latest in flower power
C G D Em D
And the freaks will drive by my street, And cry and sing and dream
C C
And listen to the new CD
G C Em D
Bury me in analog, Take the suit and
G C Em D
You can have it auctioned off, Couple thousand
C G
They bought it, you sold it
D Em
Got nothin' for everyone
C G
They bought it, you sold it
D Em
Got nothin' for everyone
G C Em D
Bury me in analog, Every paper
G C Em D
That I ever scribbled on, Is a treasure
C G D Em
Chart-topper, best seller Yeah, it'll be yours to take
C G D Em
And buy it and sell it, It's all garbage anyway
C G D Em G
The b's and the suckers Have all gone out to play
