|E MajorE       E MajorE        |A minorAm        D MajorD       |E MajorE
 When a man is running from his boss who holds a gun that fires "cost"
      E MajorE       |A minorAm      D MajorD          |E MajorE
And people die from being old or left alone because they're cold
       E MajorE         |
And bombs are dropped on fighting
A minorAm         |D MajorD         |E MajorE
cats and children's dreams are run with rats
     E MajorE       |A minorAm         D MajorD      |(E MajorE)
If you complain you disappear just like the lesbians and queers

|E MajorE  E MajorE  |A minorAm D MajorD |E MajorE  E MajorE |A minorAm D MajorD (E MajorE)|

{acoustic in}
|E MajorE    E MajorE  E MajorE    E MajorE  E MajorE |A minorAm      A minorAm D MajorD       |E MajorE
  No one can love without the grace of some unseen and distant face
    E MajorE  E MajorE   E MajorE E MajorE |A minorAm        A minorAm  D MajorD         |E MajorE
And you get beaten up by blacks who though they work still got the sack
     E MajorE  E MajorE     E MajorE  E MajorE |A minorAm     A minorAm D MajorD       E MajorE|E
And when your soul tells you to hide your very right to die's denied
    E MajorE  E MajorE   E MajorE E MajorE |A minorAm        A minorAm D MajorD     E MajorE|E
And in the battle on the streets you fight computers and receipts
     E MajorE E   E MajorE   E MajorE |A minorAm     A minorAm D MajorD     E MajorE  |E MajorE
And when a man is trying to change it only causes further pain
                         {acoustic out}
  E MajorE E MajorE     E MajorE E MajorE|A minorAm    A minorAm  D MajorD    D MajorD |D MajorD   |    |
You realize that all along something in us going wrong
