The Ramones Are Dead by Joey Cape
The Ramones Are Dead
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
(Note: For easier play, use capo in 1st fret!)
Bb Gm
I can listen to the records from my younger years
Eb F Eb7 F
Pacify my bitter ears and revive the dead dinosaurs
Bb Gm
Me and Jamo rode two buses out to Rockpile
Eb F Bb Bb7
Sure to find a rarity and something to believe
Eb Gm Eb
But I can't listen to them now without mourning that small town
F Bb Bb7
and the mom and pops I loved
Eb Cm
Once a missionary man
Eb F
I age into obscurity with them
Bb
The Ramones are dead
(F) Bb Gm
You could judge a band by the cover flipping through the bins
Eb
Assured enough to take a spin
F Eb7 F
The art and lyrics big enough to see and read
Bb
Pull the record from its sleeve
Gm
Spear the cut hole, arm and speed
Eb F Bb Bb7
Plunge the needle, shaking like a drug fiend
Eb Gm
Now relevant again somehow
Cm
Reanimated sacred cow
F Bb Bb7
But it all seems different now
Eb Cm
It's far too easy to get anything in demand
Ab F
I'll say it once again
Bb
The Ramones are dead
