[C] [G] Justice [F] to the left of you, justice [G] to the right.
Speak [F] when you are spoken to, but don't [G] pretend you're right.
This [F] life's not for living, it's [C] for fighting and [G] for wars.
No matter [F] what truth is, hold on to [G] what is [A] yours.

[F] [A] [D] So [F]
[C] concentrators, set [G] to fill the [D] fields.

[Bb] [C] You're safe.
[G] [D] All the [Cm] simple smiles, such [E] platonic eye.
How they drown in incomplete capacity.
Strangers stop them all when the fear it calls.
How we drown in stylistic [A] audacity, charge the [F] common ground.
[C] Round and [G] round we're living in [Dm] gravity's shape.
We [F] shake so hard, how we [C] laugh so loud.
But when [G] we sleep we'll be there with [A] gravity.
[Gb] [F] [C] [F]
[Eb] [F] [Fm] Sunshine, take your time, tell [Bb] me who.
