D5             C5                 G5                        D5
So many people die every day, who lived every night without hope

                         C5
Spendin' their time just standin' in line

G5                   D5
Tuggin' on society's coat

*              C5             G5                                 D5
So many people live every day    like they ain't never gonna get old

*                     C5
Doin' their time like carps in the slime

G5
Submarines with no periscopes

 D5           C5             G5                 D5

(Note: Listen for strumming pattern on final G5)

D5             C5                G5                       D5
So many people keepin' the pace, just the other side of grace

                          C5
Fakin' their smiles, just rankin' the file

G5                      D5
Wild cheetahs but in a cage, oh baby now

*              C5
So many people can't see the signs,

G5                              D5
even though their eyes are just fine (their eyes are just fine)

*                       C5
Hittin' the stage a day late for the show

G5
Astronomers with no telescopes
