[Verse]
C
Old James Dean Monroe
F
Hands out flowers at the shop-n-go
C F
Hopes for money but all he gets is fear
C
And the wind blows up his coat
F
And this he scribbles on a perfume note
C F
"If I'm not here, then you're not here"
[Pre-Chorus]
And he says,
C G F C
"Call me miscreation,
F C F G
I'm a walking celebration"
[Chorus]
C F
And it's hard to make a stand
C F
Yeah, it's hard to make a stand
C F
Ohh, it's hard to make a stand
[Verse]
C
My friend, o Lawdy
F
Went to take care of her own body
C F
But she got shot down in the road
C
She looked up before she went
F
Said, "this isn't really what I meant"
C F
And the daily news said, "two with one stone"
[Pre-Chorus]
And I say,
C G F C
"Hey, there, miscreation,
F C F G
Bring a flower, time is wasting"
[Chorus]
C F
And it's hard to make a stand
C F
And it's hard to make a stand
C F
Oh, it's hard to make a stand
C F
Oh, it's hard to make a stand
Yes it is
[Bridge]
Am F Dm G
[Verse]
C
We got loud guitars and quite suspicions
F
Big, big guns and small ambitions
C F
And we still argue over who is God
[Pre-Chorus]
And I say,
C G F C
"Hey there, miscreation
F C F G
Bring a flower, time is wasting"
I say,
C G F C
"Hey there, miscreation
F C G
We all need a celebration"
[Chorus]
C F
It's hard to make a stand
C F
And it's hard to make a stand
C F
Oh, it's hard to make a stand
C F
Yeah, it's hard to make a stand
C F
I think it's hard to make a stand
