Verse 1:

C
  By now we thought that there would be
               Dm
Jetpacks and flying cars
                          F
Robots to do the cleaning up for us
                  C
And help with the shopping
C

  We'd all be famous for bit
                  Dm
That's what Andy Warhol said
                         F
Thought we'd all get our coloured head
                     C
Well the truth would rock him

Pre-Chorus 1:

Am            Am/G#
He may be surprised

To wake up and find
                    D
That we have weaponised humiliation

Chorus:

F                     G
  In the future, everyone
              C
Everyone will have
                 F
Their 15 minutes
              F
15 minutes of shame
                 G                    C
15 minutes where they are unforgivable

Verse 2:

C
  Pick up your pitchfork and your torch
                  Dm
We'll go hunt the monster down
                          F
But keep an eye out for uneven ground
                         C
We'll turn on you if you stumble
C
  Don't need perspective or a heart
            Dm
Leave humility at home
                                    F
Welcome to the glasshouse, hope you brought your stones
                 C
Are you ready to rumble?

Pre-Chorus 2:

Am               Am/G#
I am scared to write

Anything that might
             D
Upset my own tribe but never mind, 'cause

Chorus:

F                     G
  In the future, everyone
              C
Everyone will have

Their 15 minutes
              F
15 minutes of shame
                 G                    C
15 minutes where they are unforgivable

Fm/Ab       C
Inexcusable scum
               D7
Fit only to be strung up
               G
In the village square
G
I will see you there

Pre-Chorus 3:

Am             Am/G#
I am scared to say
              C
Anything that may
                   D
Be taken the wrong way, but fuck it, baby
