Time on the pedistal
                     A                         D
I'm gonna go out and stir up a little  bit of talk around town
A                      D
Burn  bright while the sun goes down

Stir  up a little bit of talk  about town

Everybody wants the chance to move a another mind

Leave a bit of truth behind
D      G                     D
Glory  desperation cries for glory
G
Some people want to go and out   try  to stop
Em          A
Time with a gun
Em
Freeze the frame
A          D
Draw the wild
                     A                         D
I'm gonna go out and stir up a little  bit of talk around town

Burn  bright while the sun goes down

Stir  up a little bit of talk  about town
A                         Bb
Burn   while the sun goes down
        F
You can feel the heat
Bb                   F                 Bb
Out from the victory tumbling thru the streets
           F         Bb
Out in the alley way that's where  you know
F                     G       D        G
The snakes are gonna wait for another day
                              D
Meanwhile everybody cries for money
G                                  D
People will do a lot of things for money
G                                Em                A
People want to believe there's a freedom they can  buy
Em                     A       D
Place where they don't have to try
                     A                         D
I'm gonna go out and stir up a little  bit of talk around town
A                      D
Burn  bright while the sun goes down
A                        D
Stir  up a little bit of talk  around town
A                         D   G    D     G
Burn   while the sun goes down
