The song then goes into basic open chords, with the occasional hammer on each chord,
experiment till you get it right
[C]The custom concern for the people
[Am]Is build up monuments and steeples
[G]To wear out our eyes[F]
[C]I get up just about noon
[Am]My head sends a message for me to reach for my shoes and then walk
[G]Gotta go to work, gotta go to work, gotta have a j[F]ob
[C]He goes through the parking lot fields
[Am]Didn't see no signs that they would yield and then thought
[G]This'll never end, this'll never end, this'll never[F] stop
(Interlude: C Am G F)
[C]Message read on the bathroom wall says
[Am]"I don't feel at all, at all like I fall." and
[G]We're losing all our touch, losing all our touch now
Building a[F] desert
Oh my love were building ourselves a d[C]esert
We're building ourselves a des[Am]ert
We're building ourselves a des[F]ert
We're building ourselves a des[C]ert
We're building ourselves a des[Am]ert
We're building ourselves a des[F]ert
End on C :)
