_ [E] _ _ A moment of silence, [C] please, for those that never get the [Em] chance
Show up to the [C] party but they never ask to [Em] dance
The losers, the liars, the bastards, [D] the thieves
The cynicists, the [C] pessimists, those that don't [Em] believe in nothing
[D] _
_ [Em] _ _ [C] _ _ [Em] _
_ [D] _ _ [Em] _ _ [C] _
_ [Em] And that mad [G] illusion that I did see, how do [Em] I withdraw declare?
I [Am] stare into your eyes, but you look right [Em] past me into the air
What's it [C] like, standing your [Em] shoot?
With that felt, the [C] belt of somebody's [Em] abuser
Take the [C] bottle and I'll dip it for all my [Em] heroes that's past
[C] Alas, you've left us but the [Em] stories they will have
So [C] despite by the recruiting [Em] call
Independent we [C] stand, independent we [E] fall

_ [Em] So tell me, how [Dm] long do you think you can [G] go before you lose it all?
[D] Before they call you up to [Em] watch you fall
I don't [Dm] know, but I like to think I [G] have control
Some [D] point, but I let it go and [Em] lost my soul
Sit [D] tight, but the revolution's [G] in the way
You lose your [D] faith and I run and know what [E] things to say
So I [Dm] guess I have no choice but to do what [G] you say
I try to [D] let them all but lose the way that I [Em]
infiltrate
[C] Oh, [G] to have died that [D] night, I realized it [E] wouldn't last
Days are [C] numbered and the reaper tipped the [G] hourglass
I finally [D] made it over since the ship was [E] coming past
[C] Oh, [G] to the west, you [D] don't know what it [Em] is
You're a burning [C] bomb and everybody's [G] laughing loud
Last chance [D] to make your mother and your [Em] father proud
[G] A _ [Em] _
_ _ _ _ _ _

moment of silence, please, [C] for those that never get the [Em] chance
They show up to the [C] party but they're never at the [E] dance
The losers, the [C] liars, the bastards, the [Em] thieves
The cynics, the [C] pessimists, and those that don't [Em] believe in nothing
[D] A _ [Em] _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ [Em] _
_ [C] _ [E] burning bomb, a burning [C] house, a burning family
[Em] And everyone you ever knew [C] and everyone you'll ever [E] meet
I bet they seem [C] to wish we'd join when we [Em] could
We do what we want, [C] we don't do what we should
[Em] Now everybody's laughing [C] cause they're thinking they're in on something
[Em] I don't get, don't forget, [C] I connect and I read every [E] word you said
Like a child who believes in what's wrong
[Em] You hate me so much [C] that I'm taking my [Em] songs
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ [Em] _ _ [C] _ _ [Em] _
_ [C] _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ So tell [Em] me, how long [D] do you think you can go [G] before you lose it all?
[D] Before they call you up and watch you [Em] fall
I don't know, [C] but I like to think I have [G] control
Some point, [D] but I let it go and lock your [E] soul
Sit tight [D] while the revolution's in the [G] way
You're losing it, [D] then I'm running low on things [Em] to say
So I guess I [A] have no choice but to encourage [G] a change
I'm tired of them [D] all, I'm a loser and a hypocrite
[C] Oh, you [G] have died that [D] night
I realized it wouldn't [Em] last
My days are numbered [C] and they re-predict the [G] hourglass
Finally, they [D] all will sink and sink to stone and [Em] glass
Go [C] to [G] the West, you don't [D] know what it is [Em] you're running from
[C] And everybody's laughing [G] loud
Last chance to [D] make your mother and your father [Em] proud
