Chords and lyrics for Credo by Fish (key of A).
Intro
[A]
Verse
[D]I watch the TV [A]every night
[D]I stay awake by [A]satellite
[D]I hope and pray the nightmares
[A]Stay away [E]today
[D]An oily shroud on a[A] coral reef
[D]A black cloud's [A]hanging over me
When I[D] hit on the remote
The programs[A] stay the [E]same
[A]Credo, credo, [D]credo, [E]credo
[D]An assegai slick with [A]sweat and blood
[D]A shotgun barks at [A]a rabid dog
[D]A shallow grave hugs a highway
Beneath a[A] bleaching [E]sun
[D]When cancer sucks a[A] young girl's breast
When a[D] company chains [A]a young man's soul
When the [A]coal dust stole
My granddad's breath [A]away, one [E]day
[A]Credo, credo, [D]credo, [A]credo
Credo, credo, [D]credo, [A]credo
It don't mean [D]nothin', it don't mean [F#m]nothin'
It don't mean [D]nothin', it don't mean [A]nothin' to me
[D]A tattered tramp tacks a [A]windy wind
To close a [D]crowded circle a [A]brazier's light
A [D]man becomes a mountain
In the[A] falling [E]snow
[D]A mother screams and a[A] baby cries
[D]The memory gone before [A]the blood has dried
[D]A needle pricks the conscience
To help it [A]fade [E]away
[A]Credo, credo, [D]credo, credo[A]
Credo, credo, [D]credo, [A]credo
It don't mean [D]nothin', it don't mean [F#m]nothin'
It don't mean [D]nothin', it don't mean nothin' to
[A][D][A][D][A][D]me[A][D][A]
It don't mean [D]nothin', it don't[F#m] mean nothin'
It don't mean [D]nothin', tell me,[A] it don't mean nothin' to me
[D]The more you scream, the [A]less you hear
[D]Or that's how it[A] used to be
But I [D]just can't tell the difference
[A]Anymore these [E]days
[D]The open lips of an[A] altar boy
[D]A planet spins in a[A] silent void
The[D] options are ever fewer
On the[A] ground these [E]days
[A]Credo, credo, credo, credo
[D]Credo, credo, credo, credo
[A]It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin'
[D]It don't mean nothin', it don't, it don't
[F#m]It don't mean nothin' to me, to me
[D]It don't mean nothin' to [A]me
Credo, [D]credo, credo[A]
I watch the TV every night
I stay awake by satellite
I [D]hope and pray the nightmares
Stay away[A] today
An oily shroud on a coral reef
A black cloud's hanging over me
When I[D] hit on the remote
The programs[A] stay the same
A mother screams and a baby cries
The memory gone before the blood has dried
A [D]needle pricks the conscience
To help it [A]fade away
[D]Don't you fade away
Fade away, fade away, fade away
[A]Don't you fade away, don't you fade away
Fade away, fade away, fade away
