[G][C][G]
[C]

[Verse 1]
When [G]no one but
the loc[D]als are [C]around
you will see them as [G]they gather at the
center of this [D]town to pay
homage to their
[G]monolithic patriarch who [C]stands so tall
he's [Am]seen from miles around
[D][C]

[Verse 2]
They [G]worship for the gift
[D]s that he bes[C]tows
like the water that [G]they drink and use to
[D]wash [G]their dusty [D]cloths,
and the way he
repres[G]ents them to the passers- by who
[C]constantly go [E]trickling down [Am]the road.[E]
They [G]will do as they are told.
[D]

[Verse 3]
The old folks [Em]know [C]their time has
past for [Am]usefulness [Em]and
[C]thing[G]s that don't last,
but they [C]laugh [G]themselves
[Am]to sleep as [Em]they re[D]tire.
cause they re[Am]mem b[Em]er
when they [C]built the frame
that [Am]holds [Em]that head that
[C]bears [G]the name,
but the [C]young ones [G]shake their [Am]heads and
[Em]call them [F]li ars.

[G]They

[Verse 4]
know that someday
he [D]will come [C]around
and he'll realize [G]he's far too good
for [D]their Midwest[G]ern [D]town,
and he'll pack his things [G]and mover
to where the people are,
the [C]southern coast where
[E]he'll become a star.
