Rosetta Stoned
Tool
Key : Dm
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
D5
Alrighty, then
Picture this if you will

[Verse 1]
---------------------
D5
Ten to two AM, X, Yogi DMT, and a box of Krispy Kremes
In my "need to know" pose, just outside of Area fifty one
Contemplating the whole "chosen people" thingy
When just then a flaming stealth banana split the sky
Like one would hope but never really expect to see in a place like this
Cutting right angle donuts on a dime
And stopping right at my Birkenstocks
And me yelping, "holy fucking shit!"
Holy fucking shit!
Holy fucking shit!
Holy fucking shit!
Holy fucking shit!
Holy fucking shit!
Holy fucking shit!
Holy fucking shit!
Holy fucking shit!

[Verse 2]
---------------------
D5
  Then the XFile being
Looking like some kind of bluegreen Jackie Chan
With Isabella Rossellini lips, and breath that reeked of
Vanilla Chig Champa
Did a slowmo Matrix descent
Outta the butt end of the banana vessel
And hovered above my bugeyes, my gaping jaw
And my sweaty L. Ron Hubbard upper lip
And all I could think was
"I hope Uncle Martin here doesn't notice
That I pissed my fuckin' pants"

[Verse 3]
---------------------
D5 C5 G5 Bb5  D5                 C5          G5
            So  light in his way,  like an apparition, that
      Bb5
He had   me crying out
D5
"Fuck me, it's gotta be
The Deadhead Chemistry
The blotter got right on top of me
                            D5
Got me seein' Emotherfuckin'T!"

[Verse 4]
---------------------
D5
  And after calming me down
With some orange slices
And some fetal spooning
E.T. revealed to me his singular purpose
He said, "You are the chosen one
The one who will deliver the message
A message of hope for those who choose to hear it
And a warning for those who do not"
Me, the chosen one
They chose me
                                                   D5
And I didn't even graduate from fuckin' high school

[Bridge (1)]
---------------------
D5
  You'd better
You'd better
You'd better
You'd better listen

[Break (1)]

D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 
D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 
D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 

[Verse 5]
---------------------
D5 F5        D5           F5
     Then he looked right through me
D5 F5        D5       F5     D5
     With somniferous almond eyes
F5         D5        F5        D5 F5
Don't even know what that means
       D5        F5       D5  F5        D5
Must remember to write it down  This is so real
F5
D5 F5         D5        F5          D5 F5
     Like the time Dave floated away
        D5       F5      D5 F5
See, my heart is pounding
            D5         F5      D5   F5 D5 F5
'Cause this shit never happens to me
D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 
D5      F5      D5        F5
I can't breathe right now!

[Verse 6]
---------------------
D5 F5       D5     F5
     It was so real
D5 F5       D5         F5    D5
     Like I woke up in Wonderland
F5        D5   F5   D5 F5
All sorta terrifying
        D5       F5   D5  F5
I don't wanna be all alone
        D5        F5 D5 F5
While I tell this story
        D5     F5      D5
And can anyone tell me why
F5                 D5      F5
You all sound like Peanuts parents?
D5 F5       D5      F5     D5   F5        D5
     Will I ever be coming down?  This is so real
F5
D5 F5     D5         F5      D5 F5
     Finally, it's my  lucky day
        D5       F5    D5 F5
See, my heart is racing
            D5         F5      D5   F5 D5 F5
'Cause this shit never happens to me
D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 
D5      F5      D5       F5 D5
I can't breathe right now

[Verse 7]
---------------------
D5 F5      D5        F5        D5 F5
     You believe me, don't you?
         D5         F5       D5     F5
Please believe what I've just  said!
        D5         F5
See the Dead ain't touring
D5 F5         D5         F5   D5    F5
     And this wasn't all in my  head
          D5             F5
See, they took me by the hand
D5 F5      D5       F5      D5 F5
     And invited me right in
          D5        F5       D5 F5
Then they showed me something
        D5        F5       D5   F5 D5 F5
I don't even know where to begin
D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 | D5 | F5 

[Break (2)]

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
D5
Strapped down to my bed
Feet cold and eyes red
I'm out of my head
Am I alive? Am I dead?
Can't remember what they said
God damn, shit the bed

[Bridge (2)]
---------------------
D5             C5            G5             Bb5
Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position
D5           C5            G5     Bb5
Such a heavy burden now to be the one
D5               C5               G5             Bb5
Born to bear and bring to all the details of our ending
   D5                C5              G5
To write it down for all the world to  see
Bb5    D5   C5     G5
   But I forgot my pen
Bb5 D5       C5   G5
    Shit the bed again
Bb5
Typical

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
D5
Strapped down to my bed
Feet cold and eyes red
I'm out of my head
Am I alive? Am I dead?
Sunkist and Sudafed
Gyroscopes and infrared
Won't help, I'm brain dead
Can't remember what they said
God damn, shit the bed

[Verse 8]
---------------------
G5
I can't remember what they said to me
                         Bb5     C5   G5 Bb5    C5 G5
Can't remember what they said to make me out to be the hero
                         Bb5 C5 G5
Can't remember what they said
Bb5 C5 G5
         Bob help me!
                         Bb5 C5 G5
Can't remember what they said
Bb5 | C5 | G5 | D5 

[Outro]
---------------------
D5
Don't know, won't know
Don't know, won't know
Don't know, won't know
Don't know, won't know
Don't know, won't know
Don't know, won't know
Don't know, won't know
Don't know, won't know
Don't know, won't know
Don't know, won't know
Don't know, won't know
Don't know, won't know
God damn, shit the bed
