When putting this together please note E barre & A are acoustic chords
whilst any power chord (eg. E5) or bit is distorted to poop
And you have to play along to get the gist.
I'm not 100% on the chord names but enjoy :)
No solo as of yet :P

Song & Lyrics:
Intro
E5(2) A5 E5(2) A5
Verse 1
E barre A E barre A
Driving, we keep on driving, going no where
Silent, we keep it silent, no need to share at all
Bit Intro
x xx E5(2) A5 E5(2) A5
Verse 2
E barre A E barre A
Lately, things have been changing, but nobody cares
Save it, for someone who'll use it, not those with deaf ears
Chorus
F5 A5 C5 F5
And when did you no-tice something wrong here?
When nobody listens and none of us care?
F5 A5 C5 D5
So what are we doing? When will we make a change
D5 E5
Or we lose what we once owned...
Bridge
A5 F5
A5
Hey kid, run on home again
No world news to sell again
F5
Hey kid, run on home again
E5 D5
No world news to sell again
Am A Am (strum)
Solo over Bridge 2
E5 A5
E5 A5
E5 A5
Hate yourself, sorry but you're responsible, I would
E5 A5
hate myself knowing that i'm responsible, Flowing
blood for wealth and oil, The
arms race and their toys, Power
suits and power ties, Corporate
armour built for liars,
F5 A5 C5 F5
And when did you notice something wrong here?
When nobody listens and none of us care
F5 A5 C5 D5
what you do? When will we make a change
E5
Or we lose what we once are...
A5 F5
A5 F5
A5
Hey kid, run on home again
F5
No world news to sell again
