Intro:  A C#m D E    A C#m D E


A              C#m       D             E
looks like we found an escape for the public,
A     C#m              D              E      
the radio just hasn't played for seven years.
A        C#m         D               E
new information for all the kids to soak up.
D                           E
my server's down and i'm in tears.


i am the make up and the tongue ring and the mindless.
the man behind the desk names her the dollar sign.
we dance around the rosies and the blazing fire,
and with devotion wait in line.


     A  C#m  D  E              A               C#m   D      E     
hey, you-oooooooo gotta do your own thing, honey, and stay true.
  A   C#m  D  E             A           A/G           A/F#           E
so plea-eeeeeeese make us believers honey, don't ever leave us honey!
it's up to you


(play intro)


don't be so pressured to pay your debt to america.
you're young, just do your thing, you'll see you're not alone.
the fetal girl seems to be much more important
than the baby girl that's born.

climb through the atmosphere and hang out with some color.
we stop and scratch our heads and think like taking drugs. 
we are the cops, the crooks, the cats, the blind the genius.
its time to take out your ear plugs!

'cause you gotta do your own thing, honey, and stay true.
so please let us cry on your shoulder, honey.
you make me feel so much older, honey.
it's up to you

         
       (same progression, but use barre chords slightly subdued)
bridge:  A C#m D E   A C#m D E   A C#m D E    

oh yeah.  you gotta do your own thing, honey.
oh, you'll make it through.
so please make us believers, honey.  don't you ever leave us, honey.
it's up to you.   (Bill Bradley, 2000)
