Intro: 
G C G C G C C?

Verse I:
   G                       D
If I could stay mad enough maybe I'd leave 
        G                            C
but you have to understand this runs twenty-two years deep. 
                       G
Everyone wants it all. Everyone needs a place. 
C                  D
You can destroy or you can create. 
    G                  D
All I know is all that I know 
    G                    C
and I know we all just beguile the time. 
                               G
But it all catches up and it's all so fucked up. 
    C              D
And only time will tell. 

Chorus:
G D        C
Oh, how it echoes. 
G D         C
Oh, when it echoes.
   G                  D                 C
It hits like a ton of feathers, when it echoes.


Bridge: Same as chorus


Verse II:
       G               D
Common ground can't be found 
      G                        C
from atop a hill looking down. Look around. 
                        G
Take me to sleep. C'mon put me to weep. 
          C                          D
Can't you see that you've given your souls up for keeps? 

Chorus:
Bridge:

            C                       G
Yeah but it all catches up and it's all so fucked up.
C                       G
Take me to sleep. C'mon put me to weep. 
          C                          G
Can't you see that you've given your souls up for keeps? 
    C              D
And only time will tell.
C                D         G                E
 We send in poor people to fight other poor people. 
C               D          
 We send in our brothers and sisters 
    G                               E
and daughters and sons. There is no difference. 
C              D
 We send in to kill 
         G                    E                            C
while we sit on our asses and watch green screens infotain all day long. 
                      D                 G
It hits like a ton of feathers, when it echoes.
