Intro: C5



           C5       A5
There are men in white coats
         G5                 F5
holding clipboards biting pens.
           C5         A5
There are mouths in news rooms
         G5                F5
moving excitedly for the lens.
G5
the lens...




         C5              F5
And it's only a lesson long
            C5                    F5                   G5
before the deep red dirt starts pulling pulling you home
            A5        C5                        F5
But you're fighting, fighting for where you belong
            G5                   A5 G5
And that's pushing, pushing you on. 
    F5          C5
You on, you on.



Chords: C5 , A5 , G5 , A5 , G5



            C5         A5
There are ghosts in black suits
         G5              F5
making choices for the rest.
       C5         A5
While piles of blueprints
       G5                 F5
are being passed over your head.
      G5
your head...



          C5             F5
And it's only a lesson long
            C5                    F5                   G5
before the deep red dirt starts pulling pulling you home.
            A5        C5                       F5
But you're fighting fighting for where you belong.
             G5                  A5
And that's pushing, pushing you on.
 Bb5                  D5
Pushing, pushing you on.
 F5                   G5  A5  
Pushing, pushing you on.

       C5        A5            G5           F5
Oh the air is electric with promises you never wanted.
       C5        A5            G5           F5
Oh the air is electric with promises you never wanted.

         C5        A5
All the veins of silvery oil
   G5                          F5
under the soil are running through you.


Enjoy :)
