G5
The demonstrations got boring
              C5
Well it was obvious that the government was ignoring us
      E5
Its hard to drag yourself through empty streets
      F6sus2
On an empty stomach and no sleep
                      G5
The shortcomings got clearer
       C5
As the price we paid got dearer and dearer
      E5
Its supposed to be a case of give and take
           F6sus2
Well I was feeling the give and making a mistake


          A5                    F5                 G5
And Ive heard it said that the unexamined life
A5                F5                           G5
Isnt much worth living, and Im sure theyre right
          A5              F5                 G5
But its hard to keep on fighting the good fight
     A5                 F5
When no one else seems bothered yeah
      D5
When no ones on your side

     C5                 D5
Im young enough to be all pissed off
         G5                C5
But Im old enough to be jaded
     C5                  D5
Im of the age where I want things to change
          B5                   E5  D5
But with age my hopes have faded
     C5                        D5
Im young and bored of being young and bored
          B5                          E5   D5
If I was old I could say Id seen it all before
    C5          D5                G5
In short Im tired of giving a shit


                         G5
Ive got friends who are bankers
            C5
And its an easy rhyme to call them wankers
      E5
But I must say I envy the way that they live
     F6sus2
In a style thats all take and no give
                           G5
While Im playing the Lone Ranger
              C5
Riding to the rescue of six billion strangers
E5
Armed with only unoriginal songs
          F6sus2
And a sense that somethings wrong



      C5                    G5             A5            G5
And I must admit that Im tired of saying no all the time
      C5                 E5               F5           G5
But I must admit that I dont really know what would be right
         C5            B5                            E5        D5
And if politics is helping all the people then my political career is pretty
 C5
fucked
             C5                     D5               G5
Because the truth is I dont like people all that much


                        G5
The times they arent a changing
        C5
Yeah Englands still shit and its still raining
      E5
And everybodys jaded and tired and bored
    F6sus2
And no one lifts a finger because
                     G5
Its just not in our culture
    C5
Our culture is carrion and were all vultures
    E5
And no one seems bothered by this state of play
   F6sus2
It seems that the stench is with us to stay

     A5           F5               G5
So I had a go I tried examining life
    A5                F5                        G5
It wasnt much worth living I guess theyre right
         A5                  F5                   G5
And Im tired of fighting a fight thats not my fight
    A5                            F5               D5
But so is everybody else were all on the same side



     C5                 D5
Im young enough to be all pissed off
         G5                C5
But Im old enough to be jaded
     C5                  D5
Im of the age where I want things to change
          B5                   E5  D5
But with age my hopes have faded
     C5                        D5
Im young and bored of being young and bored
          B5                          E5   D5
If I was old I could say Id seen it all before
    C5          D5            C5                   D5
In short Im tired and in short Im probably fired
        C5                  D5                      G5
If the revolution doesnt want me I dont give a shit
