sold I to the merchant ships 
 G5                     E5      C5 
Minutes after they took I

from the bottomless pit. 
        G5             E5       C5

none but ourselves can free our minds.

Have no fear for atomic energy

How long shall they kill our prophets, 
           C5      G5        A5 
While we stand aside and look? 
      C5                    E5 
Some say it's just a part of it
