Preview (partial song; no chords displayed)
is A G D A. One the first ‘A’, the third fret on the second
string is hammered on then pulled off (listen to the CD for
timings, but it sounds cool!!)
G D A
And every generation’s got
G D A
The fearless few who can’t be bought
G D A
They don’t take polls or look around
G D A
They act on truth, and then they stand their ground
Bm G D
Come up and see the world stripped bare
Bm
The free indeed
G D
They breath a rarified air
Bm
Yeah, they got spirit
G D
Yeah, they got game
Bm
And some get christened
G D
With a righteous-sounding name
Bm A E
Naa-na-na-na-na-na-na-naa-na (or something)
Cor-ne-li-us (repeat)
And every generation knows
The doers do and the posers pose
‘Cause every time the plop goes fizz
Another yes-man gets his
Come on and see the big man’s boss
The mind clears out when you’re taking up the cross
Yeah, his burden’s easy
No, it don’t chafe
It’s God’s safe harbor
Why play it safe?
Naa-na-na-na-na-na-na-naa-na
Cor-ne-li-us (repeat)
D Bm A
Core strong like a centurion
G
I wanna be Cornelius
D Bm A
Core strong like a centurion
G
I wanna be Cornelius
D Bm
His kneel is real
D Bm
His kneel is real
D Bm A
What rhymes with Cornelius?
G
Helium (Helium)
The “cor” is before a kneel, a kneel
The “i” is an “e” in us, in us
He’s ready to fight, but not to fuss
We like, we like Cornelius
And history proves the axiom
That surface skimmers choke on scum
Who’s calling deep?
Who’s open wide?
Who put the ‘just’ in ‘justified’?
Check, check it out - the view you get
It’s God’s high-wire
There isn’t any net
Show a little spirit
Show you got game
Show you know
(We know, we know)
You know what’s in a name
Naa-na-na-na-na-na-na-naa-na
Cor-ne-li-us (repeat)
