[INTRO]
Em7


[VERSE 1]
  Bm
I stick around and take it in
    F#m/A                         D
The more you see the closer we'll be
  Bm                            F#m/A                   D
I visualize us falling from the towers of the 20th century
      Am                           G                             D
Where people live in magazines and video they're sleeping casual - ly
        Am                        G                     D
Where a cast of iron children are contemplating anarchy


[CHORUS 1]
Em7         A7/E
I'm talking soul years
I'm talking about the soul years
Em7         A7/E
I'm talking soul years


[VERSE 2]
    Bm                                   Esus4/A
The seed that fell on ston-ed ground has risen  now
                  D
And needs to be released
    Bm
And patients with their minds undone
     F#m/A                             D
Will need to have their living years decreased
     Am
The telephones are screaming
       G                                   D
As the whole metallic structure starts to burn
      Am
Which goes to show the more you know
         G                        D
The more   you still have to learn


[CHORUS 2]
Em7         A7/E
I'm talking soul years
I'm talking about the soul years
Em7         A7/E
I'm talking soul years
I'm talking about the soul years


[INTERLUDE]
tacit - rhythm


[CHORUS 3]
Em7         A7/E
I'm talking soul years
I'm talking about the soul years
Em7         A7/E
I'm talking soul years


[VERSE 3]
    Bm
The missionaries have all gone
    F#m/A                            D
The patent leather nuns have come to sing
    Bm
The matadors are drowned in blood
    F#m/A                           D
The bull has won I knew he would be king
    Am
The disappointed drunken hordes
    G                             D
Are ravaging the daughters of the state
  Am                     G                            D
Another fitting end to a beautiful and sunny summer's day


[FINAL CHORUS]
Em7         A7/E
I'm talking soul years
I'm talking about the soul years
Em7         A7/E
I'm talking soul years

Em7         A7/E
I'm talking soul years
What happens in the soul years?

Em7         A7/E
I'm talking soul years (repeat until fade)
