Liner Notes

# Liner

I begrudgingly have to admit that I am a contrarian. As to why I, maybe I'll figure it out before I die. In the meantime here is a song that doubles back on itself in order to say no more.

# Notes

Don't quite have this one down but it's really close. The take is good enough, and it will only get better (I hope). Seems to be a timing issue. Easy enough to fix.

Lyrics

[cp3]
c
purple's not a color, aint no-way
g
it's the brain making up something in the way
am f
so let's all wear purple today
c -g - am -f
standardized test and county boards, it can really slow you down
never let your education be affected by your schooling
c-g-am-f
and the tv news feeding me all the things i should believe
am f
but the anchor's wearing more makeup than the people selling jesus to me

g f c
so let's all be contrary

f
the devil's friend never played a fool
g
but i've seen you in a gutter or two
f g
so keep your opinions to yourself
f g c
my thoughts are contrary enough

C - G - Am - F
fashion trends got me cut low
skinny jeans in season this fall?
i'd think it be better / if i learned to sew

and my 9 to 5 has enclosed me
o money it aint free
so let's sell these bonds
go plant some seeds

g f c
so let's all be contrary

Bridge: Am - F - G - C
wel'll make a religion
based on half truth
we'll find the lord
in the things we already do

g f c
so let's all be contrary
