Intro: C F G (listen for the rythem)
Verse:
C F C
We must talk in every telephone, get eaten off the web
C F G
We must rip out all the epilogues from the books we have read
C F
And to the face of every criminal strapped firmly in a chair
C G C
We must stare, we must stare, we must stare
C F C
We must take all of the medicines too expensive now to sell
C F G
Set fire to the preacher who is promising us hell
C F
And in the ear of every anarchist who sleeps but doesn't dream
C G C
We must sing, we must sing, we must sing "And it'll go like this"
Chorus:
F G
While my mother waters plants
C F
my father loads his gun.
F G
He says, "Death will give us back to god,
Ami F
just like the setting sun
G
is returned to the lonesome ocean."
Intro is played again
during the solo, the same chord progression as the verses is played
Verse:
C F C
We must blend into the choir, sing a static with the whole
C F G
We must memorize nine numbers and deny we have a soul
C F
And to this endless race for property and privilege to be won
C G C
We must run, we must run, we must run
C F C
We must hang up in the belfry where the bats in moonlight laugh
C F G
We must stare into a crystal ball and only see the past
C F
And in the caverns of tomorrow with our flashlights and our love
C G C
We must plunge, we must plunge, we must plunge
C
And then we'll get down there, way down to the very bottom of everything
C
and then we'll see it, we'll see it, we'll see it
Chorus:
F G
Oh my morning's coming back
C F
The whole worlds waking up
F G
Oh the city bus is swimming past
Ami F
I'm happy just because
G
I found out I am really no one
End: C F G
