        Dm  F  Dm  F


Dm                 Em       F             Em
Someday they won't let you, now you must agree
Dm                     Em               F              Em
The times they are a telling, and the changing isn't free
                      Em                  F              Dm
You've read it in the tea leaves, and the tracks are on TV
  Bb       C      Dm
Beware the savage jaw
   Bb       C      Dm  F  Dm  F
Of nineteen eighty four

        Dm                   Em           F               Em
They'll split your breathing cranium, and fill it full of air
                     Em          F                  Em
And tell that you're eighty, but brother, you won't care
                         Em          F              Dm
You'll be shooting up on anything, tomorrow's never there
  Bb       C      Dm
Beware the savage jaw
   Bb       C      Dm
Of nineteen eighty four

Come see, come see, remember me
   F#                      Ebsus4 Eb
We played out an all night movie  role
    Ab                        F#
You said it would last, but I guess we enrolled
   Bbm             F
In nineteen eighty four
C#              Eb
nineteen eighty four

    Dm            Em           F             Em
I'm looking for a vehicle, I'm looking for a ride
                  Em         F             Em
I'm looking for a party, I'm looking for a side
                    Em             F             Dm
I'm looking for the treason that I knew in sixty five
  Bb       C      Dm
Beware the savage jaw
   Bb       C      Dm
Of nineteen eighty four
