Verse:
D               A
I watch the TV every night
D               A
I stay awake by satellite
D
I hope and pray the nightmares
   A      E
Stay away today

D                  A
An oily shroud on a coral reef
D                  A
A black cloud's hanging over me
      D
When I hit on the remote
            A         E
The programs stay the same
   A            D      E
Credo, credo, credo, credo

D                     A
An assegai slick with sweat and blood
D                  A
A shotgun barks at a rabid dog
D
A shallow grave hugs a highway
         A            E
Beneath a bleaching sun

D                  A
When cancer sucks a young girl's breast
      D               A
When a company chains a young man's soul
         A
When the coal dust stole
                     A         E
My granddad's breath away, one day

A               D      A
Credo, credo, credo, credo
               D      A
Credo, credo, credo, credo
               D                     F#m
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin'
               D                     A
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin' to me

D                        A
A tattered tramp tacks a windy wind
            D               A
To close a crowded circle a brazier's light
   D
A man becomes a mountain
      A         E
In the falling snow

D                     A
A mother screams and a baby cries
D                        A
The memory gone before the blood has dried
D
A needle pricks the conscience
            A      E
To help it fade away

A               D         A
Credo, credo, credo, credo
               D         A
Credo, credo, credo, credo
               D                     F#m
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin'
               D
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin' to

A D A D A D A D A
me
               D               F#m
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin'
               D               A
It don't mean nothin', tell me, it don't mean nothin' to me

D                        A
The more you scream, the less you hear
D               A
Or that's how it used to be
      D
But I just can't tell the difference
A               E
Anymore these days

D                  A
The open lips of an altar boy
D                  A
A planet spins in a silent void
   D
The options are ever fewer
      A               E
On the ground these days

A

It don't mean nothin' to me, to me
D                        A

I watch the TV every night

I stay awake by satellite
   D
I hope and pray the nightmares
         A
Stay away today


An oily shroud on a coral reef

A black cloud's hanging over me
      D
When I hit on the remote
            A
The programs stay the same


A mother screams and a baby cries

The memory gone before the blood has dried
   D
A needle pricks the conscience
            A
To help it fade away

D
Don't you fade away

Fade away, fade away, fade away
A
Don't you fade away, don't you fade away

Fade away, fade away, fade away
