          A    A2       E    E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
Cast your eyes into the distance
       A A2        E   E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
Try to focus on it all
       A  A2       E    E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
Find a spirit of resistance
           A     A2         E    E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
Instead of pride before the fall
F#m                   D
Forge some opposition
     F#m               D  E
From disparate strands
             A     A2  E    E7  D  D2
It ain't the prettiest position
     E7sus   E7   A  A2  E  E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
As a century ends

  A  A2      E E7   D  D2  E7sus  E7
Unstable situation
A     A2      E   E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
Faces made of wax
A          A2      E     E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
Streams of melting glass
A         A2        E     E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
Sheets of butchered facts
    F#m                 D
The roar of the machine
       C#                 C#7   D   E
Hooded hearts and jeweled hands
    A     A2       E        E7
And anger spilling out like gasoline
F    G            A*
As a century ends

E                 B     D                  A*
Everything I seen, everything that I heard
      E           B       D       A*
Ain't even the tip of the iceberg
F                     G
Fire down memory lane
   D                               E
So pass me my rose tinted glasses again

F#m  D  F#m  D  E  A  A2  E  E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7

          A   A2       E   E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
Through a fog of contradiction
           A  A2   E     E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
Out to the lake of tears
      A       A2         E     E7       D  D2  E7sus  E7
See society admiring its own reflection
        A          A2     E        E7    D  D2  E7sus  E7
Chase a light that shines and disappears
       F#m                 D      F#m             D  E
Now be careful what you say cause reality offends
         A    A2           E    E7    D  D2
Just sit back and let your soul decay
     E7sus   E7
As a century ends

A  A2  E  E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7 (x4)

        A       A2  E     E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
And its easy to get weary
       A        A2     E    E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
As you fight to get it done
          A   A2  E      E7  D  D2  E7sus  E7
‘Gainst a popular theory
          A   A2          E E7       D  D2  E7sus  E7
That it's over 'fore it's even begun
           F#m                 D
Strain the limit of compassion
       C#               C#7    D    E
Tend a wound that never mends, ohhh
         A  A2           E   E7
And honesty still out of fashion
F    G            A*
As a century ends
F    G            A*
As a century ends
F    G            A*
As a century ends

F  G  A* (Repeat & Fade)
