The Ramones Are Dead Chords & Lyrics - Joey Cape

I can li[A#]sten to the records from my yo[Gm]unger years
Pacify my b[D#]itter ears [F]and revive the d[D#7]ead dinos[F]aurs.
Me and J[A#]amo rode two buses round for Roc[Gm]kpile
Sure to find a r[D#]arity and s[F]omething to bel[A#]ieve. [A#7]

B[D#]ut I can't listen to them n[Gm]ow without mourning a small [D#]town
and the m[F]om and pops I lo[A#]ved [A#7]
[D#]Once were missionary [Cm]men
[D#]We age into obscurity with t[F]hem
[A#] ([F])
The Ramones are dead

[A#]You could judge a band by the cover flipping thr[Gm]ough the bins
Assured enough to t[D#]ake a spin
The a[F]rt and lyrics [D#7]big enough to s[F]ee and read
[A#]Pull the record from its sleeve
[Gm]Spear the cut hole, arm and seed
[D#]Plunge the needle, s[F]haking like a dr[A#]ug fiend [A#7]

[D#]Now relevant again someh[Gm]ow
Reanimated sacred [Cm]cow
But it a[F]ll seems different n[A#]ow [A#7]
[D#]It's far too easy to find [Cm]anything in demand
I'll s[G#]ay it once aga[F]in

The Ramones are dead. [A#]
