Intro: A-E-D-- x3, A/C#-E-D--


Verse 1:
A
Cigarette fingers ember stain

Incriminating notes on a paper chain
        D
Did you ever get the 
feeling that you've been cheated?
I wanna bust out
I've not been defeated
           F#m
We're all strong bones they hold no water
Got the whiplash smile this gets harder
D
Time has wound down and now we've been cached
Because half measures are all half-assed and
A
how did we ever end up this way
and I don't know I'm in disarray
D
Cultivating my ignorance--
A/C#
didn't we have some standards once?
F#m
I hate you and your cowboy boots
though we wanted clever we settled for stupid
D
Do it always so indiscreet
like a bad boyfriend he's a dirty little cheat


Refrain:
       F#m
It's a shallow vicious state of mind
        D
like an angry child getting dumped online
    Bm
And give me back my photos will you
D                                 A-E-D-- x4
  you fucking whore I'll kill you!

 A     E D
(Don't believe it) Don't believe a word
 A     E D
(Don't believe) Just keep on breathing
 A     E D
(Don't believe) cause pretty soon that
A         E           D
good King George will wake up screaming


Verse 2:
A
Our soundtrack is a soul less thing
some dull ache replace the sting
A/C#
Rap stars brag about shooting each other?
Whatever happened to "brother brother"?
F#m
We like thugs when they attack and
We like crime when it's black-on-black and
D
Isn't this you, cruel-hearted fake?
And isn't this more than you can take?


Chorus 2:
 A     E D
(Don't believe it) Don't believe a word
 A     E D
(Don't believe) Just walk on by
 A     E D
(Don't believe it) cause this moment
              A
will pass and then we 
E   D
can all get high yeah
 A     E D
(Don't believe it) Don't believe it
 A     E D
(Don't believe) Just keep on breathing
 A     E D
(Don't believe) cause pretty soon that
A         E           D
good King George will wake up screaming


Bridge:
Asus A                 F G

Asus A                 F G
      Wake up screaming

Verse 3:
A
  Round up all the big lynch pins
Hope we don't get fooled again!
A/C#
All sensation makes no sense
you got some insane confidence
        F#m
I can't find myself I can't change the station
in this corporate sell-out hillbilly nation
 D
Scandalize now with such ease
America give me back my keys
F#m
Sand it blows a soldier squeeze
D
trigger on fake enemies
      Bm
we're all abroad and all alone
     E
till you come home bring them home
