I don't wanna hear you talking loud about the way you think the world should be
E MajorE A minorAm D MajorD
Oh, carrying on them cruel intentions wicked ways for everyone to see

It's an already mean enough world, baby without you
G+G C majorC G+G
Don't rope me in your politics or spin me in your tangled web of lies
E MajorE A minorAm D MajorD
I do not wish to be weighed down by ugliness nor hear what you des- pies

So, un- clench your fists a minute and re- place them with some peace of mind

Seems like every way the world goes round, someone's there to knock you down
C majorC G+G
Well, mama that don't make no sense to me
E minorEm D MajorD
Them haunted dreams I've laid to rest, the chains you locked around my chest
C majorC A/EA/E D MajorD
I've busted loose and now I'm running free

Well lately I been thinking that the future holds all our worst fears
E MajorE A minorAm D MajorD
That humankind will never learn the lessons of the last three thousand years
G/BG/B C majorC
It's still an eye an eye and tooth for tooth but it's not too late to lend an ear
G+G D MajorD G+G
And stop all this hating be- fore we all disap- pear
