          D
Well you sure didn't look like you were having any fun
            D
with that heavy-metal gaze they'll have to measure in tons
              D
and when you look up at the sky
A7
all you see are zeros / all you see are zeros and ones
D

you took my hand and lead me down to watch a kewpie doll parade
D
we let the kittens lick our hair and drank our chalky lemonade
D
it's not that I just didn't care I must admit I was afraid
D
and I'm awfully glad my finger's resting gently on the masterfade


      D
the masterfade / I coulda played along
      D
the masterfade / I coulda played Mah Jongg / but it just takes too long
     D
and I just can't remember / which way the east wind blows
          Em
does it matter? / If we're all matter/ what's it matter does it matter
                                 A
if we're all matter when we're done?
          A7
when the sky is full of zeros and ones


A

D
I saw you standing all alone in the electrostatic rain
D
I thought at last I'd found a situation you can't explain
D
with GPS you know it's all just a matter of degrees
D
your happiness won't find you underneath that canopy of trees
         D
if the green grass is 6 the soybeans are 7
         D
the junebugs are 8 the weeds and thistles are 11
           D
and if the 1s just hold thier place the 0s a smiley face
       A7
when they come floating down from the heavens
D
you took my hand and lead me down to watch a papillon parade
D
we let the kittens lick our hair and drank our chalky lemonade
D
you squeezed my hand and told me softly that I shouldn't be afraid
D
'cause all the while your finger's resting   gently on the masterfade
        F#m
the masterfade I coulda played along / the masterfade
           D
I coulda played Mah Jongg but it just takes too long
     D
and who the hell can remember which way the east wind blows
             A
when your lying on the ground staring up at an inverted compass
                     D
