Just the chords for now, but one of these days I'll take a crack at that sick riff.
Tuned a half-step down.
[Intro]
G C (x8)
G
[Verse]
G C
If you don’t like it you don’t have to stay
G
(With our backs against the wall)
C
So says the man who acts like every day is Christmas day
G C
If you want to speak you better tow the line
G
Forget ideals there isn’t time to waste
C
It’s simply too late when you have the whole world to rule
Em C G
And oh how you love to serve your crown (blindly defended)
Em C G
You can’t let the stock market down
G
(Because you can’t afford it)
Em C G
And in the end when they’re wrong again (they'll rewrite history)
Em C D
And try again to lie again (to make us look like saviors)
[Chorus]
G
Bombs away
D
A country that was founded on democracy
Em
Learns a lesson from its own history
D C
Repeats itself again and again and again and again
G
Yeah you’re right
D
The grass is always greener on the other side
Em
So if my criticism shows a lack of pride
D C
Cover your ears and shield your eyes
[Interlude]
G C (x8)
[Chorus]
G
Bombs away
N.C.
A country that was founded on democracy
Em
Learns a lesson from its own history
D C
Repeats itself again and again and again and again
G
Bombs away
D
A country that was founded on democracy
Em
Learns a lesson from its own history
D C
Repeats itself again and again and again and again
G
Yeah you’re right
D
The grass is always greener on the other side
Em
So if my criticism shows a lack of pride
D C
Cover your ears and shield your eyes
G
Yeah you’re right
D
The grass is always greener on the other side
Em
So if my criticism shows a lack of pride
D C
Cover your ears and shield your eyes
[Outro]
G
What have I become
C
What have I become
G
What have I become
C
What have I become
G C
If I back myself against the wall
G
I always heed the siren call
C
If these are all the things I’ve done
G
What have I become
