Verse(1)
 
 For the first two lines of the verse strum the chords w/out distortion
 In the 2nd part strike each chord rapidly 5 times w/ distortion

 F (133211@1)    Eb (x43121@3)             Bb (x1333x@1)               
 Do you know the cost of future misery? 
 F (133211@1)      Eb (x43121@3)               Bb (x1333x@1)Have you lost your sense of sustainability?

               F (133211@1)            Eb (x43121@3)      Bb (x1333x@1)              Bb (x1333x@1)We are just a step away from realizing what we strive to be
                  F (133211@1)                 Eb (x43121@3)      Bb (x1333x@1)            Bb (x1333x@1)
 But we've got to break out from this insulated blind and lame senility


Verse(2) played like Verse(1)

 Laurels, human triumph bestowments from the past
 Victories don't mean a thing if they don't last
 We are just marching towards extinction with blinders on our eyes
 Jeopardizing everything we've learned and come to realize 
 You call that wise?


Verse(3) played like the 2nd part of Verse(1)
 
 You can live in staunch denial and mark me as your enemy
 But I'm just a voice amongst the throng who want a brighter destiny
 They say with me

Chorus(1)
 
 Strum all chords w/ distortion (every line's played like the first line)

 F (133211@1)             Eb (x43121@3)    Bb (x1333x@1)Wake up the new America Wo oh Wo oh
 Transcend in the mass hysteria Wo oh Wo oh
 Change is the thing you're wary of Wo oh Wo oh
 We need a new America Wo oh Wo oh
 
Chorus(2) played like Chorus(1)

 Open your eyes America Wo oh Wo oh
 See through the lies they tell to us Wo oh Wo oh
 Confront the fears that worry us Wo oh Wo oh
 We need a new America Wo oh Wo oh

Chorus(3) first line w/out band, then played like chorus(1)
 
 We are the new America Wo oh Wo oh
 This is the new America Wo oh Wo oh
 We are the new America Wo oh Wo oh
 This is the new America Wo oh Wo oh - let's go

Bridge 

 Play once the whole intro during the bridge

(F                EbBb                  Eb...) (x43121@3) We don't have to be afraid to re-invent
 We've got to start to build, progress and implement
 For when we take our fill and never pay the price
 We only build ourselves a fleeting, false paradise
