Chords:

Verse 1

I went for you in military times

 and, then, I waited well into the twenty three hundreds.

I made my way through

 the Union Street design

kids.

Chorus

 They were alright.

 They were on fire.

 They harbored an elementary desire to do good works.

I bought 'em all, I bought 'em all!

I made donations to The Plague, and The Fall

 and The Old Grey Mare in her stall!

Verse 2

Endangered Ape,

a couple years in Solitary never really hurt anyone.

Distinguished colleagues, dead music-writers' brides - I apologize.

 They were alright.

 They were on fire.

 They harbored an elementary desire to do good works.

I bought 'em all, I bought 'em all!

I made donations to The Plague, and The Fall

 and The Old Grey Mare in her stall.

I don't know, I guess I'm doing alright.

Tabitha takes another stab at becoming light.

 She never wants to go.

Always want to stay illuminated.

Ride towards the dawn,

 Quicksilver on the side of nothing.

Never had a chance.

Never had to choose

Your Blood versus Your

Blues.

Ride towards the dawn,

 Quicksilver on the side of nothing.

Never had a chance.

Never had to choose

Your Blood versus Your

Blues.
