Biography:
Cardiacs, originally called Cardiac Arrest, was an English band formed in 1977 and led by Tim Smith (1961-2020). Noted for their complex, varied and intense compositional style and for their eccentric, theatrical stage shows, they have been hailed as an influence by many newer groups and artists.
As well as Smith, around 23 musicians were part of the Cardiacs over the years, including Smith's brother, Jim, and multi-instrumentalist, Sarah Cutts, who married Tim Smith in 1983.

Stone Age Dinosaurs - Cardiacs
Cm Db Ab Eb Bb F Cm
Wishing for money is a man growing old and he
Cm Db Ab Eb Bb F Cm
Breaks our knifes edge with his care for the ordinary
Cm Db Ab Eb Bb F Cm
Winning hand in hand Michael Miles plays a game for me
Cm Db Ab Eb Bb F Cm
Liberace asks after me and all my family
Cm Db Ab Eb Bb F C G A E
On down the line a soldier hides his worn uniform in an eiderdown
B F# G D E B F# Ab
Says never mind the war… take me home again
Eb Bb F Cm
For the last time
THE CHORDS REPEAT THIS PATTERN FOR THE REST OF THE SONG
Jim parades a toy that he won on a rifle range
Holds him up high, its a plaster statue of Peter Glaze
It says the strangest things
And all we feel is lonely just like stoneage dinosaurs
Wishing for money is a man growing old and he
Breaks our knifes edge with his care for the ordinary
And Mr "T" offers me and all humanity a safe place to be
And all we feel is lonely just like stoneage dinosaurs
Cm Db Ab Eb Bb F Cm
Wishing for money is a man growing old and he
Cm Db Ab Eb Bb F Cm
Breaks our knifes edge with his care for the ordinary
Cm Db Ab Eb Bb F Cm
Winning hand in hand Michael Miles plays a game for me
Cm Db Ab Eb Bb F Cm
Liberace asks after me and all my family

And all we feel is lonely just like stoneage dinosaurs
Wishing for money is a man growing old and he
Breaks our knifes edge with his care for the ordinary
And Mr "T" offers me and all humanity a safe place to be
And all we feel is lonely just like stoneage dinosaurs
