(Verse)
B
Slip back out of whack, at your best.
       Ebm
It's a nightmare,
      Abm          E
So I'm joining the army.
B
Know how folks back out, I'll still call.
          Ebm
Will you wait for me now?

(Bridge)
Abm
We've got the right to live, fight to use it,
E
Got everything but you can just choose it,
B
I won't just be a puppet on a string.

(Chorus)Repeat of Abm E B F#

Abm

E

     Abm                    E
And I'm tired of all your friends
B                  F#
Listening at your door
Abm
And I want,
E      B           F#
What's better for you.

So long, my friend

Get dressed, jump out of bed into a vest.
    Ebm
Are you OK?
Abm
I've been all around this town
E                                               B
Everybody's been singing the same song for ten years.

(Chorus2)

Abm
Will youuuuuuu
E

     Abm                   E
And they sacrifice their lives,
B                       F#
And they lied about those odds
Abm                         E
I've been saying it a billion times,
      B           F#
And I'll say it again.

Abm         E
So long, my end
B            F#
The sorry embrace.
