While this isn't (I guess)= the easiest song on the album to figure out (especially lyric-wise) it's the first one I've figured out so far, and IMHO one of the best, so enjoy! The lyrics are probably really screwed up by me, but from what I can make= of 'em, they're some of Greg Graffin's best. Hey, the man has a Ph.D. for= chrissakes! "Cease" -- Bad Religion B A G F# Flat top pave-ment com-fort me B A G F# Like a chemical reaction or a steamroller, spreading randomly B A G F# There=D5s a distant fuzz of a frequency B A G F# It tickles my ears, rustles under my feet B A G F# And it shakes the leaves off of every tree G A F# Vio-lent-ly B A G What protection everlasting peace (??) A B Everything must cease (same chords as before) In-sti-tu-tion on the hill Like a beacon in the mind of an ancestor to remind the people=D5s will (??) There=D5s a shadow stain on the west facade It is spread like a cave to entrap the pod (???)
And the decent folks find it oh so odd
Oh so odd What protection everlasting peace Everything must cease (pluck 6th string only -- this part is slow) B A G F# Brave me-mo-rials hewn white stone B A G F# Like the comforting caress of a mother or a friend you've always known (strum from here -- resumes normal Bad Religion tempo) B A G F# It evokes such pain and significance B A G F# What was once is reduced to remembrance B A G F# And the generations pass without recompense G A F# Aa-aaaa-hhh... B A G What protection everlasting peace A B Everything must cease

From: Evan MALVOLIO Hulka <evahulk@nueva.pvt.k12.ca.us> Subject: CRD: Cease (revised) - Bad Religion SONG NAME: Cease ARTIST: Bad Religion ALBUM: The Grey Race YEAR: 1996 TABBED BY: Malvolio Cease -- Bad Religion Kind of an amend to my earlier tab The way this sounds best is if you play it in E (power chords). Then the intro is: EED CCB. the basic chord pattern is E D C B (Black top pavement...) When it goes "Shakes the leaves off of..." C D B, and "Violently" is C B A. "Everything must cease" is E D C ... D E. If that's a little hard to understand, listen to the album. E. Hulka
