[Chorus]
N.C.
They're only rebels 'cause they like the songs
N.C.
And I'm sure that it won't take long
N.C.
Before they all talk their shit and go home
N.C.
'Cause they're only rebels 'cause they like the songs

Yeah, there was anger, there was danger

All solutions in the mud

As we were standing up for justice, in the corner I see
Am G
I ain't lying, you were crying
F C
Holding on to your knees

I always knew that you were running from something
Am
Maybe I just didn't know you're running scared
G
From a ghost that you created, baby
F
When you look back is there nothing there?
Am
And you can run as fast as the sun
F
Or maybe only as fast as this car will go
G F
And you could take your bullshit east or west
G
I don't give a shit - all I know is that
[Chorus]

And in the eye of the storm an illusion of peace
Am G F C
I'll tell you this is your last chance to pack up and leave
Am G F Am
And if you ever come around here talking that trash to me
Am G F C
The last thing that I'll do is back down and leave
