[Intro]
Dm
[Verse 1]
Dm
And so the artist screams, into an empty cup
C Gm
He says that you're a soulless bunch, but you could still wake up
Dm
And the capitalist, says he's born to be free
C Gm
He says, "You're poor, my friends, but you don't have to be"
[Chorus 1]
Dm
Here's what we know
F Bb
We don't know what we got or if we got it
Gm Dm
And what we had, we already forgot it
F Bb
The race is evidently to the bottom
Gm Dm
We don't, we don't, we don't know what to say
Bb Gm
I don't know what to say
[Verse 2]
Dm
And so the thumpers preach, both love and hate
C Gm
They say, "you're naughty filth, but you could still be saved"
Dm
And the people wait, for the bell to ring
C Gm
They say, "we need a song, we need a song to sing"
[Chorus 2]
Dm
Here's what we know
F Bb
We don't know what we got or if we got it
Gm Dm
And what we had, we already forgot it
F Bb
The race is evidently to the bottom
Gm
We don't, we don't, we don't know what to say
[Bridge]
F
Don't know what it was but we want it back
Bb
Like every generation will repeat the last
F
Put a halo on a figurehead or photograph
Bb
Resist a little bit and then become the man
C
Dreaming of a simpler time, it occurs to me
Dm
That the past is hypothetical fantasy
Gm
And nostalgia just ain't what it used to be
[Solo]
Dm F Bb Gm
[Chorus 3]
Dm
Here's what we know
F Bb
We don't know what we got or if we got it
Gm Dm
And what we had, we already forgot it
F Bb
The race is evidently to the bottom
Gm
We don't, we don't, we don't know what to say
F Bb
We don't know what we got or if we got it
Gm Dm
And what we had, we already forgot it
F Bb
The race is evidently to the bottom
Gm F Bb
We don't, we don't, we don't know what to say
F Bb
Don't know what to say
Dm
I don't know what to say
