[Dm]
I don't want to live tomorrow, I'm too busy [A] living for today
I'll save my money when there's nothing left for me [Dm] to give away
And I'll stop singing when there's nothing left to [A] say
And these two [D] chords, [Dm] everything's okay
I went to school and cut my teeth on all the [A] lies
That they told and what they said was right
And found out that my [Dm] morals had been sold to the bidder
Who was better at the [A] game
Gotta find a way to keep on [Dm] feeding this flame
[Gm] I went downstairs [A] and heard my [Dm] family sing
[Gm] I found out [A] there that I'm no [Dm] more than a thing
My breath is smelling worse these days
I think my teeth are [A] rotting out my skull
Pick them out one by one, back letters
I won't write [Dm] into the holes and when I'm wetter
And unfettered by the [A] pain, I'll bite down hard
Reserve what's [Dm] left of my brain
Salt and water mixed together, some mode of preservation
[A] But I found anger and gasoline, a better remedy
[Dm] For starvation or protestation, no threat to our great nation
[A] My cognitive machine, still my [Dm] concessation
[Gm] I went upstairs [A] and heard the [Dm] angels sing
[Gm] I looked [A] away, but I'm still [Dm] trembling
Scars surround us and our landscapes
And our seascapes and our [A] dreamscapes
It's filling them with concrete
The smartest and the fastest [Dm] way to escape from this hellscape
Is there another route we can take
[A] To restore the [Bb] ways we've never known, [Dm]
unerased
[Gm] I went outside [A] and heard my [Dm] god sing
[Gm] These were the [A] words my god sang [Dm] to me
One day the dams will burst
The salmon will run freely [A] to their homes
The roads will crack and shudder
Buried underground [Dm] with the bones of industry
It's been reaping what we've sown
[A] Go out [D] there and build the world [Dm] I've shown
[Gm] I looked inside [A] and heard my god [Dm] groan
I [Gm] looked away, [A] but I'm still [Dm] trembling
[Gm] I looked inside [A] and saw my god [Dm] groan
I [Gm] found out then [A] that I am [Dm] simply nothing
[E] [Dm] [D]
I don't want to live tomorrow, I'm too busy [A] living for today
