[Intro]

[F#] [B] [B] [F#] [Bb] [Ebm] [Ab] [Db]
[Verse]
You[F#] call them[B] soldiers[B], I call the[F#]m friends,
[Bb]From different[Ebm] countrie[Abm]s I've nev[Db]er met.
[F#]You call them[B] heroe[B]s after th[F#]ey die,
[Bb]After you[Ebm] pay them[Abm], and steal the[Db]ir lives.
[F#]You call it[B] high school[B], but all[F#] I learned
[Bb]Is that there's[Ebm] somethin[Abm]g wrong with t[Db]he earth,
[F#]And a[B]ll y[B]our [F#]polit[Bb]ics a[Ebm]re jus[Abm]t a di[Db]rty trick to keep us feeling sick, and keep us arguing.
[Pre-chorus]
Your [Bb]bullets and your[Ebm] stones ca[Abm]n pierce rig[Bb]ht through[Ebm] my bones,
But this [Bb]heart remains my[Ebm] own, and I wil[B]l always ha[Db]ve control!
[Chorus]
And when our f[F#]riends begin to[Ebm] die, the onl[Abm]y truth they lea[Db]ve behind
Is that the [F#]devil holds their [Ebm]throats.
And only [Abm]heaven holds you[Dbm]r soul, so don'[B]t let go.
[Verse]
[F]Our gene[B]ratio[B]n needs e[F#]ducation
[Bb]About cr[Ebm]eation[Abm], not se[Db]paration.
[F]We are the [B]nation,[B] on med[F#]ication,
[Bb]Our popu[Ebm]latio[Abm]n built on he[Db]sitation.
[F]See back in[B] high schoo[B]l I nev[F#]er was cool,
[Bb]Until I[Ebm] chose t[Abm]o just do wh[Db]at I do.
[F]I skipped my[B] classes[B], put on [F#]my glasses,
[Bb]And wrote my[Ebm] love songs[Abm], so I cou[Db]ld find s[Bb]ome sunshi[Ebm]ne in the rain;
A [Abm]way to[Bb] stop m[Ebm]y pain, a[Bb]nd now I u[Ebm]nderstand
That my [B]pain was in their plan!
[Chorus]
And when our [F#]friends begin t[Ebm]o die, the onl[Abm]y truth they lea[Db]ve behind
Is that the [F#]devil holds their[Ebm] throats.
And only [Abm]heaven holds your[Dbm] soul, so don'[B]t let go.
[Chorus]
See when [B]all is said and[F#] done,
We will [Db]burn into the[Bb] sun,[Ebm][F#]
The moon will shi[Ebm]ne upon[Db]
The dis[F]tant earth tha[Db]t it once loved.[Bb][Ebm]
The sta[E]rs will sing[Ebm] a song,[Db]
For[F#] all the humans[Bb] who got lost insi[Ebm]de themselves..[Db].[F]
And[Fm] left th[Db]e whole [F#]wide world t[Abm]o burn in he[E]ll. [B]
