( play that throughout the entire song on another guitar )

A
turn my mic up louder , i got to say something
lightweights steppin’ aside when we come in
F#
feel it in your chest , the syllables get pumping
people on the street then panic and start running
D
words on loose leaf sheet , complete coming
i jump in my mind , i summon the rhyme i’m dumping
A
healing the blind , i promise to let the sun in
E
sick of the dark ways we march to the drumming
A
jump when they tell us that they wanna see jumping
fxxk that , i wanna see some fists pumping
F#
list something , take back what’s yours
say something that you know they might attack you for
D
’cause i’m sick of being treated like i had before
like it’s stupid standing for what i’m standing for
A
like this war’s really just a different brand of war
E
like it doesn’t cater to rich and abandon poor
A
like they understand you , in the back of their jet
when you can’t put gas in your tank , these fxxkers
F#
are laughing their way to the bank , and cashing their check
asking you to have the passion and have some respect
D
for a leader so nervous in an obvious way
stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay
A
and the rest of the world watching at the end of the day
E
in the living room , laughing like , “what did he say?”

F#m
amen
D
amen
A
amen
E
amen
A
amen

A
in my living room watching it , i Am not laughing
’cause when it gets tense , i know what might happen
F#
the world is cold , the bold men take action
have to react to get blown into fractions
D
at 10 years old , it’s something to see
another kid my age drugged under a jeep
A
taken and bound and found later under a tree
E
i wonder if he had thought ’the next one could be me’
A
do you see the soldiers that are out today?
they brush the dust from bulletproof vests away
F#
it’s ironic , at times like this you’d pray
but a bomb blew the mosque up yesterday
D
there’s bombs on the buses , bikes , roads
inside your market , your shops , and your clothes
A
my dad , he’s got a lot of fear , i know
E
but enough pride inside not to let that show
A
my brother had a book he would hold with pride
a little red cover with a broken spine on the back
F#
he hand – wrote a quote inside ,
“when the rich wage war , it’s the poor who die”
D
meanwhile , the leader just talks away
stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay
A
the rest of the world watching at the end of the day
E
both scared and angry , like “what did he say?”

F#m
amen
D
amen
A
amen
E
amen
A
amen

D
with hands held high into a sky so blue
A E
as the ocean opens up to swallow you ( x6 )
