Bm D Well, ain't it a shame Bm D That our short little memories Bm D Never seem to learn Bm E The message of history We keep makin' the same mistakes Over and over and over and over again And then we wonder why We're in the shape we're in Good old boys down at the bar Peanuts and politics They think they know it all They don't know much of nothing Even if one of them was to read a newspaper Cover-to-cover That ain't what's going on Journalism dead and gone Chorus: Bm Frail grasp on the big picture Bm G A Light fading and the fog is getting thicker Bm It's a frail grasp on the big picture G Dark ages You, my love-drunk friend All that red wine and candlelight Soulful conversations That go on until the dawn How many times can you tell your story? How many hangovers can you endure Just to get some snuggling done? You're living in a hormone dream You don't have the slightest notion What long-term love is all about All your romantic liaisons Don't deal with eternal questions like "Who left the cap off the freaking toothpaste?" "Whose turn to take the garbage out?" Chorus: Frail grasp on the big picture You keep on rubbing and you're gonna get a blister It's a frail grasp on the big picture And I've seen it all before Bm And we pray to our Lord D Who we know is American E He reigns from on high G A He speaks to us through middlemen And he shepherds his flock We sing out and we praise His name He supports us in war He presides over football games And the right will prevail All our troubles shall be resolved We have faith above all Unless there's money or sex involved Chorus: Frail grasp on the big picture (Nobody) Nobody's calling and they're roughing up the kicker It's a frail grasp on the big picture Heaven help us Frail grasp on the big picture All waiting for that miracle elixir It's a frail grasp on the big picture I don't wonder anymore Frail grasp on the big picture (Somebody) You brought her here so go ahead and kiss her It's a frail grasp on the big picture Frail grasp on the big picture (Hold on, hold on) Light fading and the fog is getting thicker It's a frail grasp on the big picture Frail grasp on the big picture Frail grasp on the big picture | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA  Am  D  E  G  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
