Eb F

[Verse]
F
Bang the small rocks on the big ones
     Dm
'Til the small ones are sharp and clean
          G           Gm
Catch something, kill something
Bb
New blade cuts real keen

[Chorus]
         F                     Am           Bb
And then the grass grows up to cover up the fire pit and the forge
F                      C           F
Half a world away from the Olduvai Gorge

[Verse]
F
Chew these roots for a toothache
     Dm
Chew these ones for atmosphere
          Gm
Dream the pleasant dreams that people dream
Bb
When they grow up down here

[Chorus]
         F                     Am           Bb
And then the grass grows up to cover up the fire pit and the forge
F                      C           F
Half a world away from the Olduvai Gorge

[Verse]
Gm
Take care of the old man
F
See if he's in pain
Gm
Have somebody stay with him
Bb
Comfort him when he complains
F
Keep to ourselves mostly
    Dm
Few friends and fewer closer friends
       Gm                        G
Lead a long life if you're lucky
Bb
Hope it never ends

[Chorus]
         F                  Am          Bb
And then the grass grows up to cover up the fire pit and the forge
F                     C            F
Half a world away from the Olduvai Gorge

[Outro]
