NOFX - GENERATION Z (LYRIC VIDEO) chords
Start Jamming...
I think that [E] our kids will probably [F#] see the end [Dm] of [C#m] humanity
[D] As we know it, cause this [Bm] world's about to [E] blow it
Will [A] they see what [E] they saw in ancient [F#] Rome?
The destruction [Bm] of the home
[C#m] Will they see the end of [D] civility?
[E] Cause when [C#] morality's been blurred
[F#m] Procreation seems absurd
[Bm] And human rights and freedom are [E] just words
That have [C#] lost all their meaning
[F#m] In a world that is bleeding
[Bm] Like an animal in slaughter
[E] I hope that my daughters never know
What it feels like to [F#m] give up
To know the whole [C#] world is corrupt
To [D] realize they are [B] really on their own
And [E] there's no one left who cares
[E] About the future
I think that the world's got things left [F] on the assistant's truck
If we're feeling [C#] like a human race
[D] We'll see the ticker flag
[C#m] And the laughs that are given
Are [F#m] the last ones ever driven
[Bm] And everyone who's still living [E] knows that
It's a [C#] shame that the earth
Will live [F#m] on but can't give birth
To a [Bm] painted planet where we
Could [E] start over again
[A] We've been divided, [F#m] we've been bled
[Dm] Like a chicken without [C#m] a head
Running [D] frantically on [E] my face
And by knocking in the clock
[F#m] [Dm] I'm [Bm] not a chicken
[D] [C#m] History is just an [F#m]
outline
It's believing every lie
That has ever [E] dared to lie
It's so [C#] much easier to see
Than [F#m] complex reality
[Bm] Unless that's the one [E] living we can't fight
So we tell our daughters and [F#] our sons
That they're [Dm] not the final [C#] ones to see [D] this planet
As a decent [E] place to [A] live
We use a [E] telescope
To give them faith to [D] give them hope
Anything to help it go
To the future because there's no [A] alternative
[Am] [F] [E]
[Am]
[F] [E]
[Am]
Kings [F] and queens rule the land
There's [G#] more and more lines drawn in the sand
[Am] Palms are cooked, castles are [A] roast
It's too bad, you good [F] folks
Martin's book club classes [G#] to introduce morality
Had nothing [A] to do with reality
Not again, who would've thought
We [F] read the park around for lunch
Old [D] testaments for a [G#] snack
And read the [A] lullabies before bed
There's no one who can heal your own thoughts
[F] I don't agree, [E] I will not
It's terrible, [Am] it's not real
There's no stories left to preach
There's no [F] life left in this world to teach anyone [E] Why bother?
Who are we?
Are we the intellects or the insects?
We're not the ones who will [F] ever know the answer
It's [E] impossible for us to imagine what's right in front of [Am] us
We're humans, that means we only [C] love to see a little part of the animal
[F] Feel the pressure from spending most of your [E] life working
Try chemicals, it will [A] make everything better
Their [G] hate, their love, their morality
[F] They're just chemical reactions
[G#] I need a key, I [E] can't, I [Am] can't
[F] They really just come and go, they'll press you [E] down
And if the last thing you do is make a mistake
You're the last person on the earth, go to give a shit
[F] You're a shit
[E]
You're the last one
[A] The last person on this planet
[F] Who fucked the dead and died thinking not about [Am] why didn't anyone care
But why her life was so unfair
It's time, it needs to be said
[F] I'm sorry to be the one to inform you
That man and [Am] womankind has unfortunately been [E] pronounced dead
[N]
