Intro:

Oh yeah


Verse 1:
Cm7
In France a skinny man

Died of a big disease with a little name

By chance his girlfriend came across a needle
Cm7
And soon she did the same

At home there are seventeen-year-old boys

And their idea of fun
Cm7
Is being in a gang called The Disciples

High on crack, totin' a machine gun

Time, time


Verse 2:
Cm7
Hurricane Annie ripped the ceiling of a church

And killed everyone inside

You turn on the telly and every other story
Cm7
Is tellin' you somebody died

Sister killed her baby 'cuz she couldn't afford to feed it

And we're sending people to the moon
Cm7
In September my cousin tried reefer for the very first time

Now he's doing horse, it's June

Times, times


Chorus 1:
Fm7/11
It's silly no? When the rocket ship explodes
And everybody still wants to fly
Some say a man ain't truly happy
  Gm7/11            Fm7/11
Unless a man truly dies
  Gm7/11
Oh why?
Cm7
Time ... Time


Verse 3:
Cm7
Baby make a speech, Star Wars fly

Neighbors just shine it on

But if a night falls and a bomb falls
Cm7
Will anybody see the dawn

Time, times


Chorus 2:
Fm7/11
It's silly no? When the rocket ship explodes
And everybody still wants to fly
Some say a man ain't truly happy
  Gm7/11            Fm7/11
Unless a man truly dies
  Gm7/11
Oh why?
Cm7
Time, time


Outro:
Cm7
Sign O the Times mess with your mind

Hurry before it's too late

Let's fall in love, get married, have a baby
Cm7
We'll call him Nate... if it's a boy

Time, time

Time, time
