A5 C5 D5 (x2)


VERSE

A5
All we are is entertainment
caught up in our own derangement
C5               D5              A5
Tell us what to say and what to do

A5
All we are are pretty faces,
picture perfect bottled rage
C5               D5                A5
Packaged, synthesized versions of you


CHORUS

F5                    D5                    A5       E5
We've all made petty fortunes but we can't afford a life
   F5                 G5               A5                 
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms
     F5              D5              A5         E5
They all scream California and it's toppling empire
              F5          G5          A5
But can't you see the end is coming soon?


INTERLUDE

A5 C5 D5


VERSE

     A5
Come one, come all, the new sensations
guarantees then obligations
C5                 D5           A5
Spotlights follow every single move

A5
Basking here on ten foot stages,
pouty lips and oh so jaded
C5            D5                A5
All as if we have something to prove


CHORUS

F5                   D5                A5             E5
Despite these petty fortunes we still can't afford a life
    F5                G5               A5       
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms
     F5              D5              A5       E5
They all scream California and it's toppling empire
              F5              G5       
But can't you see the end is near?


BRIDGE I

Am F7M (For the transition just put your pinky on D 4th
(relative to the Capo, it's D 3rd))


BRIDGE II

          G5                       D5
And if we cared at all about this unknown plight
             F5                         G5   Ab5  A5
Then we'd do something more to finally make this right


BRIDGE III (3/4 time, on the first quarter note you A
string is played, on the last two quarters, play the G
and the H string twice. Also, play staccato for more
intense 3/4 feeling)

A5
Is this only entertainment? Pull the curtains, places please
   C5                   D5             A5
We learned to sing and dance and cry on cue
    A5
But this is more than entertainment in a world so sick with pain
     C5           D5                 A5
This is the only thing that's real or true


CHORUS

      F5              D5              A5             E5
We've all made petty fortunes but we can't afford a life
   F5                 G5               A5
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms
     F5                 D5          A5             E5
They all scream bloody murder over graves already dug
    F5                 G5
But can't you see the end?
