Wisdom The Guggenheim Grotto
One of my all-time favourite bands! This may be my favourite song of theirs.
*NOTE* I think it's really important to play an A root note on the D chord. Doesn't
sound right otherwise.
PS. To do this as a barre chord, use the 'A' shape (root 5th fret 5 string) and include
the 6th string in your bar. The 5th fret is an A note, as in:
5th fret
e-X----|
b----X-|
g----X-|
d----X-|
a-X----|
E-X----|
ANYWAY...

[Gm]
[Gm]The road is long, you're gonna get thrown about
Stick to the rhythm, breathe it in and breath it out
[A/D]Do what you do, there isn't any secret
Chop wood, draw water, roll cigarettes
[Gm]Find a lover, put a flower in her hair
Climb a mountain, see the mountain disappear
[A/D]Be the first to go back to the ghost town
Break bread with the man that's gonna bring you [Gm]down
Deep deep down
[Bb]Sha lalala lala [A/D]la la la la lalala [Gm]la
I listen and I hear what's said
[Bb]Sha lalala lala [A/D]la la la la lalala [Gm]la
I follow it from A to Z
[Bb]Sha lalala lala [A/D]la la la la lalala [Cm]la
N.C.
But wisdom hasn't found me yet
[Gm]
[Gm]You're feeling scared, Jesus is your bodyguard
You feel alone, take a look in your backyard
[A/D]Put your eye to the eye of the telescope
The Universe looks back through a microscope
[Gm]Adopt a highway, dress yourself in camel hair
A wasted life is a life lived unaware
[A/D]Make your money, put it on a number eight
Tempt fate, baby you're a wheel going [Gm]round
Round and round
[Bb]Sha lalala lala [A/D]la la la la lalala [Gm]la
I listen and I hear what's said
