This song is kind of wierd because the timing of the chords isn't always the same...but
you just listen and play along with the song, it isn't that hard to figure out.
Standard tuning
No capo
[I just put the ------ there to place the chords correctly.]
-------Am------------------------E
Theres anthrax in the envelope I opened in my dream
--------------------F---------------C
The sky is red and little kids are running screaming in the street
---Am------------------------------E
I tried to run and save them but I had molasses feet
---------------F-----------------C
I keep having nightmares and I'm scared to go to sleep

If you fall in I'll jump down and touch your face

While we're both sinking stinking thinking we won't drowm

In Montreal I got so mad

Then we turned on CNN
F
Watched the towers fall again
-----E-------------------------------Am
and realized that our lives aren't so bad

So don't take anything for granted

If you do, the world will kick your ass
----Am--------------------F
The air is filled with computers, and carpets,
E-----------------------------------Am
Skin and bones, and telephones, and file cabinets,
Am-----------------------F
Coke machines, fire men, landing gear, and cement,
-----E-----------------------------Am
they say that it's okay, but I say don't breath in.
