[Db] [Abm]
[B] [Ebm]
[Db] [Abm]
[B] You ought [Eb] to be restin', [Db] believe it or not
[Abm] The dream is finally [B] over, the culprit has been caught
[Eb] The winds of change are [Gb] [Db] blowin', a chill is in the air
[Abm]
And to the left, to the [B] right, defeat rings everywhere
[Eb] Flame put out with water, [Gb] [Db] was suffocated first
[Abm]
It's freezing cold or excessive [B] heat, it's hard to know what's worse
[Ebm]
You're caught up in the system, [Gb] [Db] trolling all your days
[Abm]
Your motioning is irrational, [B] and you're thinking out of phase
You [Eb] ought to be restin', [Ebm] [Gb]
that even [B] as the dust settles you [Abm] carry on
Sitting in line, get back in [Ebm] your car, nothing you can learn is the same [Db] old you
Keep getting quiet and doing [B] your drill, the first to be heard and the last to [Abm] be killed
Chaos and hurt is a part of [Ebm] the thrill, don't really care if you're right or if [Db] you're wrong
Act like you're twelve, but you're still forty [Eb]-one
Some turn to alcohol, [Db] and some turn to faith
[Abm]
And others stay contented [B] knowing good things come to those who [Eb] wait
The youth, well, they don't give a [Db] damn
The old, too old to care
[Abm]
And all those in between, [B] just be aware
There's [Eb] nothing left to lose
I [Db] remain impartial, [Abm]
it's just good to be here
[B] And nothing lasts forever
[Eb] Even fear, [Db] not [Abm] even fear
[B] You ought to be restin'
[Ebm]
[Eb]
[Ebm] [Eb]
[Bb]
[Eb] [B]
Even as the dust settles you carry [Abm] on
Sitting in line, get back in your [Ebm] car, nothing you can learn is the same old [Db] you
Keep getting quiet and doing your [B] drill, the first to be heard and the last to be [Abm] killed
Chaos and hurt is a part of the [Ebm] thrill, don't really care if you're right or if you're [Db] wrong
Act like you're twelve, but you're still forty [B]-one
Act like a fool who's been just found [Ab] out
Longing to [Abm] know if you're in with a [Ebm] shout
Don't really care if you're crossing the [Db] line
I hope that you learn in the fullness of [B] time
Most of your friends will be stabbed in the [Abm] back
Not for the first time, not for the [Ebm] last
Could it be you in a few years to [Db] come?
Learn how to fight?
I would learn [B] how to run
You [Ab] better learn how to [Ebm] run
[Dbm] You [B] ought to be restin'
[Ab] You better learn how to [Eb] run
[Dbm] It's [B] all lies
It's all [Abm] lies
It's all [Ebm] lies
It's all lies
They just keep on telling [Db] lies
They just keep on [B] telling lies
It's all [Abm] lies
Yes, it's all [Ebm] lies
They just keep on [Db] telling lies
They just keep on [B] telling lies
[Abm] It's [Ebm] all lies
[Db] It's [B] all lies
