Well, I'm witnessing something I'd never have dreamed of even a couple of years ago
F                      C              F                          C
Families screaming and running about, ringing their hands in the sky, singing

No, no, no, not our generation
F               C
No, no, no, not our generation
F               C
No, no, no, not our generation
F              C
Tell us it's a lie!

Chorus:
C             F    C
We're running out, running out
G                      C
You know we're running out
C             F    C
We're running out, running out
G                      C
You know we're running out

Verse 2:
       F              C                F              C
We are running out of hope, and we are running out of love
          F              C               F                  C
And we're running out of everything that I've been dreaming of
           F              C           F                C
And we are running out of oil, we are low on light and air
          F               C                 F                 G
And we're running out and digging holes and finding nothing there

Chorus:
C             F     C
It just ain't fair, running out
G                      C
You know we're running out
C               F      C
There's nothing there, running out
G                      C
You know we're running out

Verse 3:
         F         C           F          C
Now, the car won't go, and the pool won't heat
          F                         C
And we're eating beans 'cause there ain't no meat
        F                                                      C
And the lamps which once lit up our street no longer light the way
      F     C            F         C
So we go to bed when the sun sinks low
            F       C             F          C
'Cause it's cold at night and the heat won't go
        F          C             F              C
And the television studio closed down the other day

Chorus:
C              F    C
Hey, hey, hey, hey, running out
G                      C
You know we're running out
C              F    C
Hey, hey, hey, hey, running out
G                      C
You know we're running out

Outro:

No, no, no, not our generation
F               C
No, no, no, not our generation
F               C
No, no, no, not our generation
F              C
