[Intro]
Bb Dm Bb A
Bb Dm Bb A
Bb Dm
How long before the hate that we hold
Lead us to another Holocaust?
Bb A
Are we so deep in it that we can't end it?
Stop, hold, ever call it off
Bb Dm
It's too clear, nuclear's too near
And the holders of the molotov
Bb A
Say that "Revolution's right here, right now"
And they ain't callin' off
[Verse]
Gm
Wake up, roll an eighth up
Dm
Throw a double finger with a fist
Bb
Here at the abyss
I will be your tour guide
Dm
It is war time, check your wrists (Ready, kids?)
Gm
Over to your right, shine a light
Dm
Got a bevvy ready for the fight
Bb
I just wanna live
Dm
I don't wanna ever have to load a clip
Only hunt bliss
Gm
I am still a kid in my heart
Dm
But these motherfuckers sick
They don't give a shit, not at all
Bb Dm
They don't even want to let you take a little piss in a pot
Listen along
Gm
They don't want your love, shit is bugged
Dm
Motherfuckers steady getting rich from the blood
Bb
Love when you beg
A
Trust, I would sooner put a puckered pair of lips to the sun
Gm
Love will survive
Dm
Run out under iridescent lights for our lives
Bb Dm
I will be surprised if we ever got the feeling so alive as tonight
Wild for the night
Gm
Look into my eyes
Dm
I am standing at your side for the fight
Minds over might
Bb
Swear to God
Dm
They could barely even see the dog
They don't see the size of the fight
Gm
Wake up, drink water
Dm
Smoke blunt, clean, oil my Kalashnikov
Bb Dm
Stockpile ten for me and friends in case shit get to poppin' off
Gm
The evening news givin' yous views
Dm Bb
Telling you to pick your master for president
A
Been behind the curtain, seen the devil workin'
Came back with some evidence
Gm F
I'm here to tell you don't let 'em tell you what's right wrong
Gm F
Make love, smoke kush, try to laugh hard, and live long
Gm
That's the antidote
Dm
You defeat the devil when you hold onto hope
Bb
'Cause kinfolk life is beautiful
A
And we ain't gotta die for them other men
Gm Dm
And I refuse to kill another human being
In the name of a government
Bb
'Cause I don't study war no more
Dm
I don't hate the poor no more
Gm
Gettin' more ain't what's more
Dm
Only thing more is the love
Bb
So when you see me
A
Please greet me with a heart full
Gm
And a pound and a hug
[Chorus]
Dm Bb D Gm
Take my swollen heart
Dm Bb D Gm
Bring me home from the dark
Am Bb C Gm
Take me up, take me up, take me up
Am Bb C
Take me up, take me up, take me up
[Bridge]
Gm D Bb D
Gm D Bb D
Gm Am Bb A
Up, up, up
Bb Dm Bb A
Up, up, up
[Verse]
Gm Dm
Seen the devil give a sermon in the church
Seen an angel dancing in the club
Bb Dm
Tryin' to feed a baby so I threw a thousand in the air
And blessed her with a hug
Gm Dm
I done been down so many times
Walked on like a dirty rug
Bb
And now that I made it, can't fake it
A Gm
Gotta give me what I'm truly worthy of
Dm Bb
And I don't know how much it really means to be right
Dm Gm
And what a joy it'd be to see some peace in this life
Dm Bb
And it occurs to me that maybe we ain't even really seein' it right
Here in the dark
A
Hoping just to see a beam of the light
[Chorus]
Dm Bb D Gm
Take my swollen heart
Dm Bb D Gm
Bring me home from the dark
Am Bb C Gm
Take me up, take me up, take me up
Am Bb C
Take me up, take me up, take me up
