🎸 Verse:

Bb majorBb       G minorGm
What you watch, what you read
Bb majorBb        G minorGm
What you percieve is to be truth
Bb majorBb         G minorGm
It is all so subjective
Bb majorBb              G minorGm
So what you believe is up to you
       Bb majorBb       G minorGm
But what are we to believe in
         Bb majorBb       G minorGm
Between the lies and the truth? Youth
  Bb majorBb        G minorGm
Media has vested interest
       Bb majorBb       FF
So what you believe is up to you.

🎸 Chorus:

                  G minorGm
But how are we to make sense of these turbulent times
FF              G minorGm
When all they do is censor our minds
FF                G minorGm
Only telling what they want us to know
FF           G minorGm
Only half of the story told

So what is wrong? What is right?
Bb majorBb         G minorGm
No truth can there be seen
Bb majorBb      G minorGm           Bb majorBb
Well it's all there in your new religion
       G minorGm   bb
Just turn on your TV screen
         G minorGm          Bb majorBb
Watch the sex and drugs and all that violence
       G minorGm
Look what they are feeding you
Bb majorBb  G minorGm       Bb majorBb
Propaganda yes indeed its,
    G minorGm
its all there to confuse

🎸 Chorus 2:

                  G minorGm
But how are we to make sense of these turbulent times
FF              G minorGm
When all they do is censor our minds
FF                G minorGm
Only telling what they want us to know
FF           G minorGm
Only half of the story told

      DmDm       C majorC
And if the truth can't be found
      Bb majorBb     G minorGm

I'll find my own in between
