A World Without Alex Chilton
Words and music by Rod Warner
"I wrote this the day I heard that Alex Chilton had passed. I wrote it from the point of view of some of the people he influenced who influenced me. The names in the last verse are Paul Westerberg from the Replacements, Pete Buck from REM, and Jeff Tweedy from Wilco. The production is meant to feel like a Big Star song."

For Alex

In a world without Alex Chilton
Do the kids still dance to the beat
Does the sun set each evening
And rise each day in the east

A world without Alex Chilton
Is a scary place to be
A world without Alex Chilton
Is a scary place for me

In a world without Alex Chilton
Are the southern girls still sweet
Do the dishes get washed each evening
Are the kids out in the street

A world without Alex Chilton
Is a scary place to be
A world without Alex Chilton
Is a scary place for me

In a world without Alex Chilton
Would Paul be pleased to meet me
Would Pete play the jingle jangle
Would Jeff still sing Thirteen

A world without Alex Chilton
Is a crazy place you’ll see
A world without Alex Chilton
Is a scary place to be
And a scary place for me
