##############################Please Note#################################
This is my own interpretation of the song.
G# C# G#
Another lesson has been learned,
C# G#
Amidst these modern times.
C# G#
Strangers in the mist appear,
A# G#
Now there's war, all the time.
C# G#
Systematically gunna destroy,
C# G#
Commit another atrocity.
C# G#
Aggressors are in their places,
A# G# C# F-8th A# D#
Man made catastrophe
Chorus:
G# D#
I'm not lookin' for a fight now,
Bb C#
And I don't care who's wrong or right now.
G# D#
So release the dove into flight now,
Bb C#
We can start right now, we can start right now.
Verse 2:
C# G#
A small key gunna open the door,
C# G#
Across the border to a new land.
C# G#
And in the new land a sandstorm roars,
A# G#
Under spell there's a ghost of a man.
C# G#
On the back of many warriors they stand,
C# G#
Their prayers fall upon deaf ears.
C# G#
Machiavelli owns a machine gun now,
A# G# C# F-8th A# D#
And shill in a mask and a puppeteer
Chorus:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/r/rancid/start_now_crd.html ]
G# D#
I'm not lookin' for a fight now,
Bb C#
And I don't care who's wrong or right now.
G# D#
So release the dove into flight now,
Bb C#
So we can start right now, we can start right now.
Bridge:
G# C#
Humility has no play in this case,
G# D#
In a big game of chess for us all.
G# C#
Hostility explodes in a mess,
G# D#
Now you got blood all over the wall.
G# C#
And clarity turns to dark,
G# D#
Blindfolded prisoners of war.
G# C# G# C# G#
Solidarity, on the razors edge, boy, what?!
D#
Your a big puncher now, right!?!
*SOLO*
Yeah?....Na!......Nah.... I don't fuckin' think so...
*2nd part of SOLO*
Chorus:
G# D#
I'm not lookin' for a fight now,
Bb C#
And I don't care who's wrong or right now.
G# D#
So release the dove into flight now,
Bb C#
So we can start right now, we can start right now.
G# D#
I'm not lookin' for a fight now,
Bb C#
And I don't care who's wrong or right now.
G# D#
So release the dove into flight now,
Bb C#
So we can start right now, we can start right now.
****While singing the 3rd chorus, one person sings,
"start right now, start right now, start right now"..., and
everyone else sings the regular chorus line, while fading out.****
G# D#
I'm not lookin' for a fight now,
Bb C#
And I don't care who's wrong or right now.
G# D# -start fading out
So release the dove into flight now,
Bb C#
So we can start right now, we can start right now.
*END*
