🎸 Verse:

Am                           G                      C#b
 It's more like sadness composed by a fragmented soul
                       E                                  Am
All the words in the world, I just don't know where it goes
                  G                  C#b
You holding the line or scuttling away
                       E                        Am
Is life a blockbuster film or a half-rehearsed play?
                     G                           C#b
And the pigs on the spit and the wolf's at the door
                   E                            Am
Do the bad need a good like the rich need the poor?
                G                            C#b
How far can it get before the death Pixels meme?
              E                            A
An imperial threat or is it all just a dream?

🎸 Chorus:

      A            E                F#m          D
It's hard to theorize when you're being brutalised
         A                G              F#m     F#b E  G
And the tears fall like bombs without warning

Am  G  C#b E
Am  G  C#b E

🎸 Verse:

Am                          G                          C#b
No, you don't know you're born, free speech and free porn
                        E                             Am
And the next thing you know you're being led out at dawn
                         G                 C#b
Listen good children of men, t-t-t-time again
                  E                   Am
The d-devil will come without w-warning
                       G                            C#b
Take a look out the window while you watching the news
          E                  Am
B  ha ha, Hymer comes into view
                         G                          C#b
And now your shadow's a skull, and the skull is a whole
                       E                         A
The hole is empty of course like all human discourse

🎸 Chorus:

       A           E                   F#m         D
It's hard to theorize when you are being brutalized
          A                G                        F#m
And the tears, like the bombs, they fall without warning
D                          A                      C#                  F#m
Follow the tracks in the mud down to where the sea is black with blood
      A               G                        F#m         F#b E  G
And tears, like the bombs, they fall without warning

🎸 Verse:

Am               G
How far can it get before the death Pixels meme?
C#b                  E
Imperial threat or is it all just a dream?
 Am                         G                      C#b
It's more like sadness composed by a fragmented soul
                            E
I just don't know where it goes

🎸 Chorus:

      A             E                   F#m         D

And the tears, like the bombs, they fall without warning
D                          A                      C#                  F#m
Follow the tracks in the mud down to where the sea is black with blood
      A               G                        F#m
And tears, like the bombs, they fall without warning
