Verse
CTrouble (x32010@1)travels fast 
							AmWhen (x02210@1)you're specially designed for crash testing 
							GOr (320003@1)wearing wool sunglasses in the afternoon 
						FCome (133211@1)on and tell us what you're trying to prove 

			CBecause (x32010@1)it's a battle when you dabble in war 
			AmYou (x02210@1)store it up, unleash it, then you piece it together 
				GWhether (320003@1)the storm drain running rampant just stamp it 
				FAnd (133211@1)send it to somebody who's pretending to care 

	CJust (x32010@1)cash in your blanks for little toy tanks 
		     AmLearn (x02210@1)how to use them, then abuse them and choose them 
		GOver (320003@1)conversations relationships are overrated 
F"I (133211@1)hated everyone" said the sun 

		     CAnd (x32010@1)so I will cook all your books 

You're too good looking and mistooken 
       AmYou (x02210@1)could watch it instead 
						GFrom (320003@1)the comfort of your burning beds 
						F (133211@1)    G (320003@1)Or you can sleep through the static

Verse
CStuck (x32010@1)between channels my thoughts all quit 
		AmI (x02210@1)thought about them too much, allowed them to touch 
		   GThe (320003@1)feelings that rained down on the plains all dried and cracked 
  FWaiting (133211@1)for things that never came 

		   CShock (x32010@1)and awful thing to make somebody think 
				AmThat (x02210@1)they have to choose pushing for peace supporting the troops 
			   GAnd (320003@1)either you're weak or you'll use brut force-feed the truth 
		FThe (133211@1)truth is we say not as we do 

		      CWe (x32010@1)say anytime, anywhere, just show your teeth and strike the fear 
     AmOf (x02210@1)god wears camouflage, cries at night and drives a dodge 
   GPick (320003@1)up the beat and stop hogging the feast 
	   FThat's (133211@1)no way to treat an enemy 

	CWell (x32010@1)mighty mighty appetite 

we just eat 'em up and keep on driving 
	AmFreedom (x02210@1)can be freezing take a picture from the pretty side 
GMind (320003@1)your manners wave your banners 

				F (133211@1)		GWhat (320003@1)a wonderful world that this angle can see
