[F]This is our town, this i[Am]s Friday night
[F]Dressed in our rags and our[Am] rage and our best
[Dm]Piercing eyes looking [C]for something - [F]anything, just anyone.
[F]Stare across the floor as they be[Am]gin to dance
[F]Missing all the rhythms and the [Am]chosen right steps
And we [Dm]laugh and we drink in our [C]corner again
We're better than [F]them
Div[F]ided we were born, div[Am]ided we live
Div[F]ided we fall, div[Am]ided we die
Still we [Dm]tell ourselves over and [C]over again
We're better than [F]them
With our [Am]hunger and our [D]hatred, we all [Am]walk this town[D]
With our [F]fear and our [G]weakness - just [D]holding on
With our [Am]doubt and our [D]emptiness and this [Am]cold, cold frown[D]
We've got to be[F] so im[G]portant, we'll put the whole [D]damn world down
And we [F]build the walls that we can [Am]hide behind
And our [F]finest weapon is our[Am] poisoned pride
[Dm]Here in this town where the [C]jealousies burn
We're watching [F]you
'Cause [F]truth is only what we [Am]need it to be
To [F]bring us survival through each and[Am] every day
When [Dm]nowhere is safe and no[C]where is home - just b[F]e cool
And [F]what was she wearing and [Am]what did he say?
[F]Who goes with who and [Am]what did they do?
We [Dm]tell ourselves over and [C]over again
We're better than [F]them
With our [Am]hunger and our [D]hatred, we all [Am]walk this town[D]
With our [F]fear and our [G]weakness - just [D]holding on
With our [Am]doubt and our [D]emptiness and this [Am]cold, cold frown[D]
We've got to [F]be so imp[G]ortant, we'll put the whole [D]damn world down
Div[F]ided we were born, div[Am]ided we live
Div[F]ided we fall, div[Am]ided we die
Still we [Dm]tell ourselves over and [C]over again
We're better than [F]them
