CAPO: 4
Intro: FF
verse 1
Is this what we really want
A minorAm
Background music from a restaurant?
D MajorD C majorC C7C7 FF
Spare me, it's doing in my head
Drop-dead gorgeous teen
A minorAm
Singing pages from her diary
D MajorD C majorC C7C7 G+G
So bad, you'd kick her out of bed
FF
Break down the stupid wall
Stop doing what you're told
C majorC G+G
And don't believe a thing you see
FF
Red light, drop that ball
Stop getting everything you want
C majorC G+G FF
And get a piece of what you need
verse 2
Life on the happy pills
A minorAm
Counts on Pfizer to erase our ills
D MajorD C majorC C7C7 FF
It's working, I'm feeling pretty blank
So sing, sing, soulless boy
A minorAm
Give us more of your simple joy
D MajorD C majorC C7C7 G+G
It's soothing, money in the bank
FF
Break down the stupid wall
Stop doing what you're told
C majorC G+G
And don't believe a thing you see
FF
Red light, drop that ball
Stop getting everything you want
C majorC G+G D MajorD
And get a piece of what you need
Bridge
Oh, say can't you see
C majorC
We're kinda, sorta living free
Eb MajorEb D MajorD
Staring into space
Eb MajorEb D MajorD
Bye, bye human race
Instrumental: FF A minorAm D MajorD C majorC FF A minorAm D MajorD C majorC G+G

Break down the stupid wall
Stop doing what we're told

And don't believe a thing you see

And get a piece of what you need
