INTRO:
C, G, C...


VERSE ONE
      C
Anchormen spike their blood
     G
wear masks of mud
     C                     F
cucumbers cut to fit their eyes
       C                     G                  
and so no one would know how tired they've grown
   C           G             C
of talking and telling their lies


VERSE TWO
          C
While the tvs change stations
       G
scroll messages
            C                         F
victims and Christians both, drinking blood
                 C                           G
and they'll pray for the destruction, of all hatred
                C          G        C
more often just those with hate for us


VERSE THREE
               C                       G
Cause it hurts when you discover one's worse and one's better
   C                      F
to suffer or cause others to
            C                                    
and you can live by your conscience
    G
now guilt, is a concept
       C         G           C
you're no longer subscribing to


CHORUS
          F            Fm
There's a virgin in my bed
          C      G       Am
and she's taking off her dress
    F                 C          G 
and I'm not sure what I am gonna do
          F                Fm
there's a song stuck in my head
      C          G       Am
and I can't help singing it
   F             C               G 
oh how i hope my singing pleases you
                  Am
cause this is not who I’ve become
         G           C
but what you make me into


BRIDGE
C, F, C, Fm, C, F, C, Fm, C, G.....

VERSE FOUR
          C
Oh we got no health insurance
   G
no cellular service
   C                 F
no disease they can cure
                 C             
but we need more money to burn
        G                     C      G               C
so each person must learn the dollar amount they are worth


VERSE FIVE
          C
And those pills make me dizzy
   G
forgetting my body
   C                 F
i watch as it walks away
                 C             
and i just keep drinking the poison
    G            
and smoking the cartons
  C          G      C
a pack and a half a day


VERSE SIX
        C
so when time comes to claim me
   G                          C                F     
my friends and my family will gather around my grave
              C                            G
and they'll believe that they knew me and love me and miss me
    C           G      C
and all call me by my name


CHORUS
    F               Fm
so imagine what you want
         C       G       Am
and then hold on to that thought
      F                  C            G 
cause that's as close as it will ever come
      F                      Fm           C      G       Am
and believe you're where you are and keep acting out the part
           F                             C                     G 
but at the end of the end of the day the trees all get wheeled away
              Am                  G           C                                
and you'll be standing alone in a blank blank space


CHORUS (GENTLY)
   F                      Fm
so believe you're who you are
    C       G       Am
and stay in character
            F                  C               G 
but at the end of the play the audience walks away
              Am                  G          C                                
and I'll be shivering cold on a well lit stage.
