Prologue
words and music by Arlo Guthrie
G F9
In the event of my demise
G
Be sure to include this statement
F9
When you are bent on closing my eyes
G
Thinking about what my life meant
F9
Alone on a hill back in '65
G
Things looked a lot like changing
F9
Singing our songs that we harmonized
G
Dreaming of worlds rearranging
C D G
And I don't know why I'm singing tonight
Em D
Maybe it's time someone told you
G C D G
Just because you say you've seen the light
Em D G
Doesn't mean nobody sold you
G F9
I can remember all of your smiles
G
During the demonstrations
F9
Taking on what seemed like the whole world
G
Igniting the hearts of our nations
C D Em
And together we sang our victory songs
Am D
Though we were worlds apart
G F9
Every thing then has now passed away
G
Except for the love in my heart
F9
Sitting at home on computerized beds
G
Trying to come to conclusions
F9
Seeing reflections from rose-colored heads
G
Ignoring the states of illusion
C D G
Drunk in a world of material wealth
Em D
No one can notice you falling
G C D G
Fantastic flights once good for your health
Em D G
Now make you deaf to your calling
C D Em
And all alone the prophet groans
Am D
With words as yet unseen
G F9
Who'll be awake when the master returns
G
Who will be lost in their dreams
F9
So in the event of my demise
G
Be sure to include this statement
F9
Only the words of love kept alive
G
Are worthy of not being wasted
