Am     F   C
 Lost in a sea of combat
G  Am       F
boots flush the bouncers
   C   G  Am Am
with wasted youth   when
did punk rock become
  F
so safe when did the
        C
scene become a joke
the kids who used to
     G
live for beer and speed
  G#
now want their fries and
Am
coke cursing and flipping
        F
birds are not allowed

C   G  Am Am
on the kids   helmets
   F    C

pieces   they we could
         F
pad the floor and walls
put cameras inside
     C
bathroom stalls we make
sure only nice bands
G
play back keeping
G#     Am
sour Madden Brothers
These kids could be

my country Tiffany

 thee sweet land
of liberty whoa

     G
girls and love you killed

the owl you freed the dove
