Intro: E5 , B5


Verse One:
E5                                               B5
Where are the ones who carry their guns to the far away lands with the
                          C#5                       A5             
blackened suns from the smokened narrow minds. The half-truth trails and the 
 B5            E5                                     B5
holy lies of an empty heart and overflowing mouth, a plastic smile and a 
                 C#5                               A5          
coward's frown. Reprecussions come around when the word named free burns to 
B5
the ground somehow.


Interlude: E5 , B5 , C#5 , A5 , B5 , E5 , B5


Verse Two:
E5                                                   B5         
Where are the deaf and where are the dumb from the side of the tracks where 
                              C#5                     A5
no reason comes from and the tables never bare. The water runs and momma's 
 B5                E5                                           B5
always there so who separates the world from the start. Where such words 
                                           C#5
would come and such thoughts would cause a shot heard round the world. Or 
 A5               B5
just as sad never heard at all. 


Chorus:
    E5                    B5                    A5             C#5
So down down down like a ball of flames, to the rotten core filling up with 
              A5            C#5            Ab5            B5
names of hypocrites what a massive list, don't exclude yourself from it. 
       E5                  B5         A5                C#5
Don't compromise administration lies carried out and covered up with time, 
A5                    C#5            Ab5                    A5
carried out and turned around to shine. High on a pedestal of broken lives.


Interlude: E5 , B5 , C#5 , A5 , B5 , E5 , B5


Verse Three:
E5                                           B5       
Compassion speaks loud for itself falls on broken ears and off the value 
                C#5                     A5                  B5
shelf into the dirt left to the wind. Coming up strong ready to begin to 
E5                                             B5              
obliterate the word from the start Where such words would come and such 
                        C#5                                     A5
thoughts would cause a spark that'll set a blaze and leave the embers red 
            B5
until the end of days.


Chorus:
    E5                    B5                    A5             C#5
So down down down like a ball of flames, to the rotten core filling up with 
              A5            C#5            Ab5            B5
names of hypocrites what a massive list, don't exclude yourself from it. 
       E5                  B5         A5                C#5
Don't compromise administration lies carried out and covered up with time, 
A5                    C#5            Ab5                    A5
carried out and turned around to shine. High on a pedestal of broken lives.


Interlude: E5 , B...


Outro:
E5                                              B5  
Where are the ones who carry their guns to the far away lands with the 
                        C#5                         A5         
blackened suns from the smokened narrow minds. The half-truth trails and the 
B5          E5                                     B5
holy lies of an empty heart and overflowing mouth, a plastic smile and a 
                C#5                                A5             B5
coward's frown. Reprecussions come around when the word named free burns to 
               E5
the ground somehow.
