Verse:
G+G D MajorD
Schopenhauer in Berlin
C majorC A minorAm
Watched the metropolis collapse to the village
G+G D MajorD
It's a sign of the times that we're in
C majorC A minorAm
That we're thinking along the same line he did
G+G D MajorD
So we climb to the top of the bridge
C majorC A minorAm
Where the white flag was raised in defiance, oh!
G+G D MajorD
It's a truce. It's a loss. It's a win
C majorC C majorC C/BC/B C/AC/A G+G
It's a landslide
Pre-Chorus:
Cmaj7Cmaj7
Will you pay for my flu shot?
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
I'm immune, but my heart's not, and I'm cold
Cmaj7Cmaj7
Will we blink like the charge on a battery
E minorEm
Blinking out together? Open question

Verse:
G+G D MajorD
Schopenhauer on the Greyhound
C majorC A minorAm
Drinking Drano from an open container
G+G D MajorD
Saw the wisdom in keeping his gaze fixed
C majorC A minorAm
At the phone lines
G+G D MajorD
Then Schopenhauer spat his teeth out
C majorC A minorAm
In the hopes that was collectively kinder
G+G D MajorD
On a night of drunken karaoke
C majorC A minorAm
And young tired eyes
Pre-Chorus:
Cmaj7Cmaj7
When we dream we connect in communion
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
Our slurred words spoke we backwards the more
C majorC G+G
We sang "La la la, la la la la la, registration documents!"
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
Closed our eyes, and passed out on the floor
Cmaj7Cmaj7
If we cling to the cold star
N.C.
Will we freeze together? Open question.

Verse:
G+G D MajorD
Schopenhauer in New York City
C majorC A minorAm
Was conflicted in his hatred of Hegel
G+G D MajorD
But his arrogance conquered his pity
C majorC
And he flew out
G+G D MajorD
On the first flight his sister could find him
C majorC A minorAm
And he slept all the way back to Tegel
G+G G+G
Where the landing lights threatened to blind him
C majorC
Until they blew out
Pre-Chorus:
Cmaj7Cmaj7
I can't sleep. We got older
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
We were cool. Now we're cold and alone
C majorC
But if we sing "La la la, la la la la la!" will our wild democracy
E minorEm
Echo out forever? Open question.
Outro:
G+G D MajorD C majorC A minorAm
If the universal will blanks your mind
G+G D MajorD C majorC A minorAm
If the population catalyst declines
G+G D MajorD C majorC A minorAm
Please remember: Schopenahuer in Berlin was not unkind
G+G G/F# E minorEm C majorC G+G
