        Lonely feelin' deep inside

                                  [N.C.; electric plays fill below]
        Sudden darkness but I can see

"New Mother Nature"

[Verse 1]

 D [electric piano plays F#]
Jocko says yes and I believe him
When we talk about the things I say
She hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him
When they're standing in each other's way
You're driven back in time to places you been to
You wonder what you're gonna find
You know you been wrong but it won't be long
Before you leave 'em all far behind


[Chorus]

                G7                       D7
               [B7                       F#7]
'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over
         G7                         D7
        [B7                         F#7]
It's the new splendid lady come to call
         G7                       D7
        [B7                       F#7]
It's the new Mother Nature takin' over
       C          D
      [E         F#]
She's gettin' us all  (2x)


[Verse 2]

Jocko said no when I came back last time
It's lookin' like I lost a friend
No use callin' 'cause the sky is fallin'
It's gettin' pretty near the end
A smoke-filled room in a corner basement
The situation must be right
A bag of goodies and a bottle of wine
We're gonna get it on right tonight


[Chorus]

                G7                       D7
               [B7                       F#7]
'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over
         G7                         D7
        [B7                         F#7]
It's the new splendid lady come to call
         G7                       D7
        [B7                       F#7]
It's the new Mother Nature takin' over
       C          D
      [E         F#]
She's gettin' us all  (2x)
