[Gm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [E] _ [Dm] _
_ _ [Gm] You can fight a war with drones, you can fight a war with loans, you can [Dm] fight a war with
gas or cans of paint, _ [Gm] but don't you realize that the game is compromised if you [E] think
that this is something that it [A] _ ain't?
We got images of [G] murder [Dm] that don't manage to disturb [Gm] an international order that is
bordering absurd, [A] and no one gets the freedom they were told that they deserve, [E] till they
realize that [A] freedom's not a [F] noun, [Em] [Gm] it's a verb, it's a verb, [Dm] freedom is a verb, [Cm] something
never finished, [Gm] never done, _ it's something you must make, [Dm] it's something you must take,
[A] it's something you [Fm] must [Dbm] constantly [Gm] _ become. _ _ _ _ _

[Dm] _ _ _ [Am] [Gm] Well this weekend revolution, it's a radical inclusion, it's a holiday of [Dm]
popular revolt,
_ it's [Gm] the social _ interruption of inconsequential actions [E] using faces to replace a [A] silent [G] [F] vote,
[E] but [Dm] lower pay and higher rents, another kind of violence, [Gm] the violence of silence of greed,
_ [A] it's the violence of feeling your irrelevance revealing every [E] way in which you never will
[A] be freed, _ [Gm] it's a verb, it's a verb, [Dm] an action and an urge, [Cm] a smurdle and the barrel [Gm] of a
gun, and it happens out of need, it's a [Dm] fire and a sea that [A] its terrible potential [D] has [Gm] begun. _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ [F] _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [G] _ _ [E] _
_ [Gb] _ _ Well [Gm] they'll tell you that you're lizarding, it's constantly in jeopardy, it's [Dm] something
you must loyally defend, _ _ [Gm] but isn't it demeaning when your well-intended meetings [E] mean your
meetings will have to justify [A] your ends?
[Dm] So improvise a barricade of furniture cascading [Gm] as a carnival of helmets in the flood, for
[A] the bottles can be filled with either gasoline or lager or [E] detergent that'll wash away your [Am] _ blood.
[Gm] It's a verb, it's a verb, [Dm] freedom is a verb, [Cm] something never finished, [Gm] never done, it's
something you can fake and [Dm] it's something that'll break it and [A] it's something that you constantly [Dm] become.
_ [Gm] It's a verb, it's a verb, [Dm] an action and an urge, [Cm] a smurdle [F] and the barrel [Bb] of a gun, [Gm] and
it happens out of need, it's [Dm] a fire and a sea that its terrible [A] potential [Dm] has begun.
