Am C  (x11)

Verse 1:
Am        C
Tidy your books up
Am                  C
Put them under your bed
Am              C
And gather your thoughts up
Am                   C
But keep 'em in your head
Am                  C
Be careful what you wish for
Am                  C
Be careful what you dream
Am                     C
They let you sing your songs, son
Am                         C
But they’ll never hear you scream
D   C   Am  C  Am  C
Why
D   C   Am  C  Am  C
Why

Verse 2:
Am          C
Button your coat up
Am                    C
Take shelter from the rain
Am                   C
They want you to be like them
Am                       C
But you can never be the same
Am                            C
’Cause you’re standing on the outside
Am                   C
They’ll never let you in
Am                       C
They’ll let you play the game, son
Am                        C
But they’ll never let you win

Why
D   C   Am  C  Am  C
Why

Verse 3:
Am             C
Never let them bare witness
Am                   C
To the tears in your eyes
Am               C
And never take a handshake
Am                    C
From the prophets and their lies
Am                          C
’Cause they put you in the wrong line
Am                         C
You’ve been crying out for more
Am                    C
They’ve given you the key, son
Am                         C
But you’ll never find the door
D   C   Am  C  Am  C
Why
D   C   Am  C  Am  C
Why

Verse 4:
Am                  C
You’ve fallen like an angel
Am               C
Stranded on the earth
Am                  C
They let you see their riches
Am                             C
They never tell you what you’re worth
Am                          C
They’ve put you in the back seat
Am                            C
While they’re heading for the sun
Am                            C
And if you’re waiting for the rapture

Outro:
Am                  C
The day will never come
Am                  C
The day will never come
Am                  C
The day will never come
Am                  C
