 [acoustic


 out]


 |E E |E E |


 


 |E E |Am D |E


 When a man is running from his boss who holds a gun that fires "cost"


 E |Am D |E


 And people die from being old or left alone because they're cold


 E |


 And bombs are dropped on fighting


 Am |D |E


 cats and children's dreams are run with rats


 E |Am D |(E)


 If you complain you disappear just like the lesbians and queers


 


 |E E |Am D |E E |Am D (E)|


 


 [acoustic in] 


 |E E E E E |Am Am D |E


 No one can love without the grace of some unseen and distant face


 E E E E |Am Am D |E


 And you get beaten up by blacks who though they work still got the sack


 E E E E |Am Am D E|E


 And when your soul tells you to hide your very right to die's denied


 E E E E |Am Am D E|E


 And in the battle on the streets you fight computers and receipts


 E E E E |Am Am D E |E


 And when a man is trying to change it only causes further pain


 [acoustic out] 


 E E E E|Am Am D D |D | |


 You realize that all along something in us going wrong
