[VERSE 1] (Slowly pick through the chords)
A E F#m
I think that our kids will probably see
D C#m D
The end of humanity, as we know it
Bm E
Cause this world's about to blow it.
A E F#m
Will they see what they saw in ancient Rome,
D B
The destruction of the home.
C#m D E
Will they see the end of civility?
C#m
Cause when morality's been blurred,
F#m
Procreation seems absurd
Bm E
And human rights and freedom are just words,
C#m
That have lost all their meaning
F#m
In a world that is bleeding.
Bm
Like an animal in slaughter,
E A
I hope that my daughters never know
[VERSE 2] (Fast Power Chords)
E F#m
What it feels like to give up
D C#m
To know the whole world is corrupt.
D Bm
To realize they are really on their own
E A
And there's no one left who cares
E
About the future
F#m D
Infected cuts don't need a suture
Bm C#m
There's a feeling that the human race,
D E
Has seen the checkered flag
C#m
And the laps that are given
F#m
Are the last ones ever driven.
Bm E
And everyone who's still living knows that
C#m
It's a shame that the earth
F#m
Will live on but can't give birth
Bm E
To a baby planet where we could start over again.
A E F#m
We've been divided, we've been bled,
D C#m
Like a chicken without a head.
D Bm
Running frantically amuck
E
Taking but not giving a fuck.
[SOLO] (Someone else tab that)
A E F#m D
Bm C#m D E
[VERSE 3] (Fast Power Chords)
C#m F#m
History is just an alibi
Bm
It's believing every lie
E
Man has ever dared to write.
C#m
It's so much easier to see
F#m
That complex reality
Bm E
A lifetime full of misery and blight.
A E F#m
So we tell our daughters and our sons
D C#m
That they're not the final ones
D Bm E
To see this planet as a decent place to live
A E
We use our telescope
F#m D
To give them faith, to give them hope
Bm C#m
Anything to help them cope
D E
With their future cause there's no alternative
[OUTRO]
Am F E/G# Am (Repeat)
