[B] [Gb]
[Bb] [Ebm] [Abm] [Db]
[Gb] [B]
[Bbm] [Ebm] [Abm] [Db]
[Gb] You call [B] them soldiers, I call [Gb] them friends [Bb] From different [Ebm] countries [Ab] [Db] I've never met
[Gb] You call [B] them heroes [Gb] after they die [Bb] After [Ebm] you pay [Abm] them [Db] and steal their lives
[Gb] You call [B] it high school, but all [Gb] I learn [Bbm] Is that [Ebm] there's something [Abm] [Db] wrong with the earth
[Gb] And all [B] your politics are just [Gb] a dirty trick To keep [Ebm] us feeling sick
[Ab] [Db] And keep us arguing [Bb] your bullets and your [Ebm] stone Can [Abm] pierce [Bb] right through my [Ebm] bones
But [Bb] this heart remains my [Ebm] own And I will [B] always have [Bm] control
And when [Gb] our friends begin to [Ebm] die The only [Abm] truth they leave [Db] behind
Is that [Gb] the devil holds the [Ebm] throne But [Abm] only heaven holds your [Db] soul
So don't [Gb] let go
Our [B] generation needs [Gb]
education [Bb] About [Ebm] creation, [Abm] not [Db]
separation
[Gb] We [B] are a nation [Gb] on medication [Bb] A [Ebm] population [Abm] built on [Db]
hesitation
[Gb] See, [B] back in high school [Gb] I never was [Bb] cool Until [Ebm] I chose [Abm] to just [Db] do what I had [Gb] to
I [B] sketched my classes, put on my glasses [Bb] And [Ebm] wrote my love [Abm] songs
So [Db] I could find [Bb] some sunshine in [Ebm] the rain [Abm] A way [Bb] to stop my [Ebm] pain
[Bb] But now I [Ebm] understand That [B] my pain was in [Bm] their plan
When [Gb] our friends begin [Ebm] to die The only [Abm] truth they leave [Db] behind
Is that [Gb] the devil holds [Ebm] the throne But [Abm] only heaven holds [Db] your soul
So [Gb] don't let go
See, [B] when all is said [Gb] and done We [Bbm] will burn into the [Gb] sun
The [B] moon will shine [Gb] upon A [Bbm] distant earth that it [Ebm] once loved
[Gbm] The stars will sing [Gb] a song For all [Bbm] the humans who [Ebm] got lost [Gb]
inside themselves
And
[Bb] left the whole wide world [Ab] to burn [Gb] in hell
