[Verse 1]
D** Bm
me and all my friends
G D**
we're all misunderstood
A Bm
they say we stand for nothing and

to rise above and beat it

D* Bm
now if we had the power
G D**
to bring our neighbors home from war

and when you trust your television
G D**
what you get is what you got

they can bend it all they want
