Verse 1:
B            C#         F#
What are you willing to fight?
        B           C#       F#
Are you afraid that you just might
     B              C#      F#
Find something that you're afraid of
    B        C#
And run away in fright
       B*          C#*        F#*
Well I ain't gonna take it anymore (what do you say?)
        B*               C#*             F#*
Cause I know what you're ****ing with me for (what do you say?)
       B*        C#*     F#*              B                  C#
You're trying to keep me down from seeing what's beyond that door

Chorus:
    F#       C#           B
The truth is not what you see, Media Control!
F#      C#        B
Selling chaos on TV, Media Control!
    F#       C#           B
The truth is not what you see, Media Control!
F#      C#        B
Selling chaos on TV, but don't think you fooled me!

Riff 1, Riff 2

Verse 2:
             B              C#             F#
You know the words but, you can't sing the tune
   B        C#           F#
1939 it all happened too soon
        B         C#       F#
But you played it like you meant to lose
              B               C#
You tied your fate right in a noose
       B*     C#*    F#*
But if sanity is my TV (what do you say?)
       B*                C#*         F#*
Than I don't know what's happened to me (what do you say?)
     B*         C#*       F#*
Your lies are a billboard telling me
     B              C#
That I can't really see

Chorus x1

(the solo is kinda crazy so this isn't perfect, but it's close and gives  you the general idea of it)

Bridge:
D#             B       C#               F#
I wont take to long to tell you all so long

I ain't ever coming back, coming back

Chorus x1

Riff 1 x2 (with "Don't think you fooled me")
