Verse:
G#                   E          F#
As the tears welled up in my eyes, something hit me that tore me up inside
G#                  E              F#        E
Misled, deceived, we all turned out backs on those we should respect and send back home
        F#            E
This is not a game that anyone should play
            F#                 G#
Blood spills on the ground and all our hands are dripping now

Chorus:
  G#        B       E       F#
I can't wipe them clean, I somehow feel responsible
   G#      B                 E        F#
In a time of disarray I wrote it off and said this feeling will fade away
        G#      B      F#
But to my dismay, I still feel responsible
      G#         B         E        F#
I didn't take my duty seriously and now this feeling won't go away
       G#
It won't go away

Verse:
G#               E        F#         G#
"In time everything will be alright, he's no better than the other guy"
           E    F#           E
Shame on me! The apathetic American they want me to be
       F#             E
I'm a bad cliche that too many of us portray
           F#                 G#
Blood spills on the gound and all our hands are dripping now

Chorus:
  G#        B       E       F#
I can't wipe them clean, I somehow feel responsible
   G#      B                 E        F#
In a time of disarray I wrote it off and said this feeling will fade away
        G#      B      F#
But to my dismay, I still feel responsible
      G#         B         E        F#
I didn't take my duty seriously and now this feeling won't go away
       G#
It won't go away

I won't make the same mistake again

I'll learn to speak my mind

I'm never going down without a fight

  G#        B       E       F#
I can't wipe them clean, I somehow feel responsible
   G#      B                 E        F#
In a time of disarray I wrote it off and said this feeling will fade away
        G#      B      F#

      G#         B         E        F#
