Verse 1:
E5             G5
Some of us are born and then 
D5              C5
some of us are born again
E5              G5
Some of us are scared to death 
    D5                 C5
and some just don't believe in
   E5           G5      D5    C5
it Something is always wrong
          E5 G5    D5
There's a lie an idea 
        C5
I can't get behind
E5     G5
No one knows what's
D5    C5     E5 G5
right some try Some
D5             C5
try to find a king


Chorus 1:
           C5
They sing "Who 
            G5
will save us now?
It's our life but
   A5
we don't want to live
       C5
it" We want to be 
    G5
told now by something
or something who's
A5
better than us
       C5
Who we know 
we can trust
       D5
Who'll always 
               A5
protect us but keep 
us scared to death so 
   C5
we never ask questions
       D5
Who'll dictate the 
         A5
consequences of our actions 
    C5
and give us peace of mind 
          C5
about our miserable lives
   D5
Confined and content 
All we want is 
               E5  G5 D5 C5 E5 - G5 - D5 - C5
a place we can hide


Verse 2:
E5
So we've always 
G5
fought our wars 
    D5
for what we're told
         C5
is worth dying for
E5
Land and love and 
G5
god and wealth 
    D5
but men in charge 
   C5
protect themselves
E5      G5      D5
You can rest assured 
that it's the 
E5   G5        D5
young and the poor 
              C5
who've fought all them
         E5       
Our wars led to 
G5        D5  C5
death by men who 
     E5   G5    D5
they chose and hoped 
         C5
would protect them 


Chorus 2:
     C5
and "Who will save
  G5
us now? It's our
            A5
life but we don't 
want to live it"
    C5
And all you'll get 
  G5
is down because the 
people you elect to
   A5
protect your best interests
     C5
will just protect themselves
    D5
and all their investments
    A5
and even the few with the
C5
best of intentions will
D5
just push their views
     A5
what they think is right 
            C5
for you and everyone
else You can't think 
for yourself because
D5
you've chosen to let 
                       E5 G5 D5 C5 E5 - G5 - D5 - C-
someone else do it for you


Verse 3:
E5
So we're left to 
G5
drift between 
    D5
our waking life and 
C5
all of our dreams
  E5
Reality is 
G5            D5
relative and all 
that's all the 
C5
advice I'll give
E5       G5         D5
Life and death are hard
C5             E5      G5
  They're such strange 
    D5           C5
and complicated issues
   E5         G5
So listen and listen 
D5   C5    E5     G5
well for insight
    D5
but no one knows
       C5
what's right for you


Chorus 3:
 C5               G5
"Who will save us now? It's 
              A5
a wrong and irrelevant question 
        C5           G5
Because we figure it out
with the people who love us
    A5
Who call us half brothers
    C5
for lessons we've learned
        D5
for our fathers and mothers
    A5
not looking for someone
   C5
to find our solutions 
D5
Fight all our battles 
   A5
or show us what truth is 
        C5
It's by working hard to 
find our own peace of mind
D5
Living and learning until we 
                         E5    G5 D5 C5 E5 - G5 - D5 - C5
know what's right for our lives
