Ten Mysterious Photos That Cant Be Explained Chords

(ver. 1)
Billy Bragg
[Intro]
Bb F C Dm
Bb F C
 
[Verse 1]
        Bb        F
Now the angry old men
           C           Dm
Say it was better back when
           Bb           F      C
We used to Keep the Aspidistra Flying
       Bb         F
Now it may be the case
        C                Dm
That we can't change our bike
            Bb        F       C
but there's surely no harm in trying
 
[Chorus]
    Gm                         Bb
And ten mysterious photos that can't be explained
    F                 C
Are draining away the best of my day
    Gm                      Bb
And fragments of songs that I never wrote
    F                            C
Are wroting in the pockets of my winter coat
 
[Verse 2]
        Bb         F        C         Dm
Now the world wide web is a wonderful thing
              Bb              F          C
You're just a click away from all of the facts
              Bb        F          C       Dm
But there's a downside if you've a curious mind
          Bb         F    C
It's like heroin for auto-didacts
 
[Chorus]
    Gm                         Bb
But ten mysterious photos that can't be explained
    F                 C
Are draining away the best of my day
    Gm                      Bb
And fragments of songs that I never wrote
    F                            C
Are wroting in the pockets of my winter coat
 
[Bridge 1]
Dm
I've been down rabbit holes
G
I've seen the rabid trolls
Bb
Cackling in the twilight
       F      C
Of the Age of Reason
Dm
One thing I've noticed
G
As I get older
Bb
Common sense, like art
                     C
Is in the eye of the beholder
 
[Verse 3]
        Bb           F
Now the new breed of no(?)
             C           Dm
Nothings are flooding my screen
         Bb              F        C
Now they skimmy this I'm god damn sure
               Bb         F
They look like reasonable folks
        C              Dm
But the next thing you know
           Bb        F                  C
Is they're screaming "I don't want your cure!"
 
[Chorus]
    Gm                         Bb
And ten mysterious photos that can't be explained
    F                 C
Are draining away the best of my day
    Gm                      Bb
And fragments of songs that I never wrote
    F                            C
Are wroting in the pockets of my winter coat
 
[Bridge 2]
Dm
The conspiracy acts
G
The cyberchondriacs
Bb                             F        C
Gripped by their fear of their own imagination
Dm
They switched the filters off
G
Too much is not enough
Bb                                C
You know that you can overdose on information
 
[Instrumental]
Bb F C Dm
Bb F C
 
[Chorus]
    Gm                         Bb
Ten mysterious photos that can't be explained
    F                 C
Are draining away the best of my day
    Gm                      Bb
And fragments of songs that I never wrote
    F                            C
Are wroting in the pockets of my winter coat
 
[Outro]
Bb F C Dm
Bb F C
