Guitar chords with lyrics

Dm              C    Dm
 All this time has whittled away
      C       G      Dm   C  Dm
Like so many days in one
                 C   Dm
Back and forth the leaders sway
 C         G        Dm   C  Dm
Backing it up with guns

        C     Dm             C
Superpowers flex their wings
          G        Dm            C
Hold the world on puppet strings
Dm               C    Dm
Egos will feed while citizens bleed
       C                  A7   C
That's always the way it goes

Dm                  C    Dm
 All they want is what they can defend
 C            G      Dm  C  Dm
Before their time is up
             C  Dm
Make the same mistakes again
 C       G      Dm   C  Dm
Heard it all before

(Dm  C  G  Dm  Dm  C  G  Dm)

     Dm    C            G    Dm
Well if they tried, maybe they'd see
        Dm     C                     G   Dm
It'd do a little good to let the world be free
      Dm      C              G    Dm
Handshake and a smile, gets you on through
          Dm     C               G    Dm
Then turn it all around with a suicide move

          C            G         Dm
But you know it's not fooling any-one but me
           C             G          Dm
You gotta make yourself see what you want to see
          C            G         Dm
But you know it's not fooling any-one but me
           C             G          Dm
You gotta make yourself see what you want to see

Oh yeah!
