Biography:
Pavement was an indie rock band that formed in Stockton, California in 1989. For most of the period to 1999, the band consisted of Stephen Malkmus (vocals, guitar), Scott "Spiral Stairs" Kannberg (guitar, vocals), Mark Ibold (bass), Steve West (drums) and Bob Nastanovich (percussion, vocals). During that period, and since, they have frequently been described as one of the most influential bands to emerge from the American underground of the '90s. While their split in 1999 was reportedly rather acrimonious

PAVEMENT - HARNESS YOUR HOPES
-----------------------------
INTRO (not really sure)
Dm Am E Dm Am E Am Dm Am E
After intro strum A for 2 measures
F#m A
Harness your hopes on just one person
F#m A
Because you know a harness was only made for one
F#m A
Don't telegraph your passes, you'll end up with molasses
F#m A
Cauterized with syrup and syrup and molasses
A B D
And I'm checking out the asses, the assets that attract us
F#m A
To anything that moves.. we're deep inside the grooves
A B D
And it's time to shake the rations, 'cause someone's gonna cash in
F#m A
The plot it turns again.. the reference starts at ten
F#m A
Show me a word that rhymes with pavement
F#m A
And I won't kill your parents and roast them on a spit
F#m A
And a - don't you try to etch it or permanently sketch it
F#m A
Or you're gonna catch a bad bad cold
A B D
And the freaks have stormed the white house, I moved into a lighthouse
F#m A
It's on a scenic quay, is oh so far away
A B D
Far away from the beginning, the shroud is made of Lenin
F#m A
The yearling took the purse, the goth kid has a hearse
E E E
Heart breaking, earth quaking, kiwis they are home baking
D A B E D A
Minds.. wide.. o-pen.. true-ly
F#m A
Leisure.. a leisure suit is nothing
A F#m A
It's nothing to be proud of.. in this late century
A F#m A
And I'm asking you to hold me just like the morning paper
A F#m A
Pinched between your pointer, your index and your thumb
A B D
It's a semi automatic.. believers are ecstatic
F#m A
You see the way they cling.. the cold metallic sting
A B D
And I'm living in a coma.. for Donna DeVorona
F#m A
The harness made of hopes.. the lovers on the ropes
E E E E
Nun is to church as the parrot is to perch
D A B E D A
And my heart's wide o-pen true-ly
SOLO (over A and F#m)
