F# B B F# Bb Ebm Ab Db
F# B B F# Bb Ebm Ab Db
[Verse]
F# B B F#
You call them soldiers, I call them friends,
Bb Ebm Abm Db
From different countries I've never met.
F# B B F#
You call them heroes after they die,
Bb Ebm Abm Db
After you pay them, and steal their lives.
F# B B F#
You call it high school, but all I learned
Bb Ebm Abm Db
Is that there's something wrong with the earth,
F# B B F# Bb Ebm Abm Db
And all your politics are just a dirty trick to keep us feeling sick, and keep us arguing.
[Pre-chorus]
Bb Ebm Abm Bb Ebm
Your bullets and your stones can pierce right through my bones,
Bb Ebm B Db
But this heart remains my own, and I will always have control!
[Chorus]
F# Ebm Abm Db
And when our friends begin to die, the only truth they leave behind
F# Ebm
Is that the devil holds their throats.
Abm Dbm B
And only heaven holds your soul, so don't let go.
[Verse]
F B B F#
Our generation needs education
Bb Ebm Abm Db
About creation, not separation.
F B B F#
We are the nation, on medication,
Bb Ebm Abm Db
Our population built on hesitation.
F B B F#
See back in high school I never was cool,
Bb Ebm Abm Db
Until I chose to just do what I do.
F B B F#
I skipped my classes, put on my glasses,
Bb Ebm Abm Db Bb Ebm
And wrote my love songs, so I could find some sunshine in the rain;
Abm Bb Ebm Bb Ebm
A way to stop my pain, and now I understand
B
That my pain was in their plan!
[Chorus]
F# Ebm Abm Db
And when our friends begin to die, the only truth they leave behind
F# Ebm
Is that the devil holds their throats.
Abm Dbm B
And only heaven holds your soul, so don't let go.
[Chorus]
B F#
See when all is said and done,
Db Bb Ebm F#
We will burn into the sun,
Ebm Db
The moon will shine upon
F Db Bb Ebm
The distant earth that it once loved.
E Ebm Db
The stars will sing a song,
F# Bb Ebm Db F
For all the humans who got lost inside themselves...
Fm Db F# Abm E B
And left the whole wide world to burn in hell.
