Chickenfoot - Future In The Past Lyrics






I said, oh, watchin' them fall
Never hurt at all
One by one
Falling from the sun
And melting down
Sooner hit the ground
Up so fast
The future in the past

Oh, oh
The future's in the past, wooh
Oh yeah, hey, uh

Well, I was thinkin' it's the real thing, wooh
Buckin' like a Mustang
We got everybody talkin'
Yeah, they talkin'
About, "I got mine." wooh, hey

I got a funky, funky feeling
Somewhere in the past
Still everyday believin'
Oh, I'm believin'

Saving the best for last, huh, yeah, oh
Saving the best for last, wooh
Saving the best for last

I hear voices
Alien voices

Ya- ya-ya-ya-ya
Ya- ya-ya-ya-ya

Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

Yeah, come on, come on
Future is the past

I'm gonna listen to the future
Listen to the past
Life ain't 'bout no hurry
I'm gonna save the best for last, come on, come on
The future is the past

I'm gonna listen to the children
Listen to my friends
Let science be my church
The song that never ends, come on
Yeah, come on
The future is the past

We don't have to worry
'Bout anything that's done
We each made of wax
Get melted by the sun
come on, bring it on, come on
The future is the past

I'm gonna climb up on the mountain top
Stand naked with the trees
Listen to the voice
Inside you and me, come on, come on, come on
The future's in the past

The future is so past, yeah
Come on
Future is the past, come on
Come on, come on
The future is the past, come on

    satriani is sick such a good supergroup x

    This is a HAPPY band with HAPPY music. Give us more albums and blu ray live

  15. M.... S....

    God damn!!!!! That Satriani solo was fucking unreal! Love these guys!

  16. W.... B....

    The best + live album fn rocks. would love to see them tour

  17. D.... V....

    As a long-time but somewhat jaded Satriani fan, Satch's riffing and groove in this track is fantastic!

  18. C.... C....

    Cuando será que estas 4 leyendas del Rock, reunidas en tan excelente banda, visitaran mi humilde país? ojalá algún día de estos vengan a Colombia 😔😔

  19. Z.... W....

    ilovethis

  20. N.... C....

    Sammy and Michael, were truly the hearth and soul of VH, without them they are just a joke!!!

    N.... C....

    Have you ever compared the Van Halen records DLR did and the ones with SH? Michael was integral to VH I'll give you that. Sammy is certainly the better singer but DLR in his prime was great too and made far better albums.

  21. m.... ....

    Best front man there is...

  22. P.... B....

    Out of the van halen ashes, comes this, amazing .. keep rocking dudes.. 4 super hero's = legendary rock n roll

  23. T.... R....

    Chicken. Fuckin. Foot!

  24. I.... M....

    I've studied Satch style a little bit and Joe put about 80% of his guitar tricks into this song and it sounds fantastic!

  25. M.... ....

    Satch is fucking genius

  26. J.... s....

    un vrais super groupe que de bons musiciens, excellent !

  27. z.... ....

    In what key does Joe play during the ending solo? D major? E minor?

    z.... ....

    zerosiii It’s in D Mixolydian, so basically G Major with a D key center. In solos like this, usually you jump back and forth between Mixolydian and the parallel minor pentatonic, bending up the minor third to the major third. So Joe is basically blending D Mixolydian with D minor pentatonic, maybe even throwing in a little D blues scale including the Ab note at the right moments. However, they’re tuned down half a step here to Db, so that’s what you actually hear.

  28. B.... S....

    One of the only bands that do really sound way better live, as well as amazing on recorded. Truly a great super group, each one a megastar and together a megaband! <3

  29. m.... ....

    awesome song, what a badass riff

  30. T.... ....

    カッコ良すぎるにも程がある。

  31. B.... S....

    BAD ASS!!!!

  32. s.... ....

    Sammy will always be one of the greatest front men no matter what band he's in, (puts DLR to shame in VH) not to mention the rest of the awesome talent on that stage.  Great musicians, great song.

  33. p.... ....

    This is Straight up , Kick in the Ass Rock and Roll.....this is My new favorite Band.

  34. S.... F....

    Sums everything up, don't it? some people learn from their mistakes, and some just don't, and never will.

    S.... F....

    @Julie Desilets you need to hear this

    Hagar is the best frontman period!!! CHICKENFOOT ROCKS!!!

  55. T.... L....

    Simply the best song ever written in my opinion, it has pretty much everything a song should be. Admittedly the album quality is better and being there live would have so much more energy but hey :< still epic win, and its obvious how much went into that song too

  56. D.... M....

    That's what these new young boy bands lack today... REAL MUSICIANS. Thank you Chickenfoot

  57. A.... ....

    3:00 esse riff é um tesão! PQP! :P

  64. g.... ....

    You guys are doing it right, Sammy!!

  65. H.... S....

    Sammy Hagar... I love you... I hope you get this.

  66. H.... S....

    This is such an awesome song! Chickenfoot are my favourite supergroup.

  67. r.... ....

    sammy always seems to be groping joe

  68. C.... B....

    this is the best live version of this song, Just Brilliant
    these guys are brilliant live anyway but this is wicked. what a performance.

  69. J.... ....

    Loovveeee Chickenfoot! I think chad is really underrated. He is such a dominant drummer. Joe and Chad! gotta love them. As i've seen in an other comment: Van Halen with better drums and guitar!

  70. T.... ....

    I love them! Saw them in Düsseldorf, Germany. It was one of the best concerst, i've ever heard. Boys, you're the best!

  71. 8.... V....

    World Class Act!

  72. T.... ....

    better than vh as of date...sammy and joe kicked ass..

  73. J.... ....

    @darinbar overrated? VH is for sure! tattoo sucks big time, "its good because its VH" isnt it?

  74. J.... ....

    I´d love to see them live, they fucking rock

  75. F.... ....

    3:00 Love this riff!

  76. D.... ....

    @Guitarmattms2010 You speak the TRUTH.

  77. M.... S....

    @GetYourKicks1986 Saw these guys at the Metro in Chicago last fall.. Amazing. It was my first time seeing Joe live and I was only 8 feet from the guy. I was just in shock by his playing.

  78. M.... S....

    @darinbar

    Dude, please take your chickenfoot hate else where. I prefer this to the new VH single.

  79. G.... ....

    I was at this exact concert HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  80. T.... ....

    I love how the guy formally with the Luke Warm Pecker Whackers now wears a shirt with "Bad Co" on it.....He knows good music..that's why he left !

  81. s.... p....

    ROCK'N ROLL

  82. W.... ....

    I love to watch/listen to a band where ALL the player are masters of their craft. CF is one of those types of bands. GREAT DVD, CDs!!!!

  83. M.... S....

    I love this band and I can't wait to see them in Chicago on Saturday. I'm a huge fan but this song really does remind me of a Van Halen song on steroids.

  84. R.... M....

    Take a 64 yo. red rocker an ex-vanHalen big bass,a guy with the biggest drum ever (guiness book) and the best guitar player of the world.... and you have this fantastic old school ROCK´n Roll. I realy appreciate your fine work and wanna say B I G T H A N K S

  85. 3.... ....

    @Gandalf819 what do you mean "if you like it"?
    you can't like this, you have to love it, it's so great!!

  86. L.... C....

    I enjoy to seeing how they enjoy each other! Way to go.. Chickenfoot.

  87. M.... ....

    4w350m3......
    never doubt for them....

  88. S.... M....

    Finally a band like this formed 2 years back came up with 2 albums many more yet come...resurrection has happened...rock is reborn.

  89. t.... ....

    best solo joe has ever performed, really love chads drumming in this band, you can really see what a power house he really is

  90. t.... ....

    best solo joe has ever performed
