 SONG: Cease
 AUTHOR: Greg Graffin
 ARTIST: Bad Religion
 ALBUM: The Gray Race
 YEAR: 1996
 TABBED BY: The Jackal
 
 I got an advance copy of Bad Religion's new album, "The Gray Race" (as
 far as I know, it will be released March 5th). 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

 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
