There's a picture opposite me

Of my primitive ancestry

Which stood on rocky shores and kept the beaches shipwreck free

Though I respect that a lot
A               Bm/A
I'd be fired if that were my job
A                           D                   E
After killing jason off and countless screaming argonauts

 Like guardian angels its always near
