Intro- A, Db7, D, A X2
A Db7 D
Before you say a word I should tell you that I've heard it all before
A
And you should probably save your breath
Db7 D
Your feelings of disgust, your thinly veiled mistrust
A
My friends have lectured me to death
A Db7 D
The people on the news predicted he would lose
A
And this was never part of anybody's thoughts
Db7
But something must have gave, or someone must have caved
D A
'Cause now he's up there and they're calling all the shots
A Db7
And now most everyone's been taking turns at pointing out the flaws
D A
Accusing us of sabotage and fracturing the cause
Db7
With fingers pointing everywhere and flapping of the jaws
D A
I just avert my eyes and take the abuse
A Db7
In social situations I keep mostly to myself
D A
'Cause no one wants to hear about my failing mental health
Db7
And party conversation, I just keep it on the shelf
D A
'Cause I've discovered it's of very little use

A D
And now I'm here
A
Stopped at the red light
Bm7
Watching the headlights
F#m7 D
And what if it's all a trick that I fell for
A Bm7 G D
It's happened before more times than I would care to own up to
A
And I don't know about you
Bm7
But I've been getting so tired
F#m7 D
Of holding out my thumb for salvation
A Bm7 G D
The indication is that no one really feels like slowing down
A Db7 D A X2
A Db7 D
I listen to the Clash, I separate my trash
A
I'm pretty vocal when I feel like things are getting out of hand
Db7 D
But nothing that I do is ever getting through
A
And I just wonder if nobody understands at all
A Db7 D
The revolution won't be televised 'cause television's free
A
And no one's really sure just what the price is going to be
Db7 D
We're slowly going broke, our scene's become a joke
A
For coked-up funnymen and everyone but me
A Db7 D
I like to think that what we had was more than just a fad
A
That it was rooted in some bigger kind of truth
Db7
But friends just shake their heads, make jokes about the Dead
D A
And tell me that they used to think the same things in their youth
D A
I'm stopped at the red light
Bm7
Watching for headlights
F#m7 D
And what if it's all a trick that I fell for
A Bm7 G D
It's happened before more times than I would care to own up to
A
And I don't know about you
Bm7
But I've been getting so tired
F#m7 D
Of holding out my thumb for salvation
A Bm7 G D
The indication is that no one really feels like slowing down
A Db7 D A X2
