C F x 3

C F C
we must talk in every telephone get eaten off the web
C F G
we must rip out all the epilogues in the books that we have read
C F
and to the face of avert criminal strapped firmly to a chair
C G C
we must stare, we must stare, we must stare

C F C
we must take all of the medicines to expensive now to sell
C F G
set fire to the preacher who is promising us hell
C F
and to the ear of every anarchist who sleeps but doesn't dream
C G C
we must sing, we must sing, we must sing

it'll go like this alright
F G Am F
While my mother waters plants my father shoot his gun
F G Am F
he say death will bring us back to god, just like the setting sun
G
is returned to the lonesome ocean

C F x 3

C F C
we must blend into the choir sing a static with the whole
C F G
we must memorize 9 numbers and deny we have a soul
C F
and in this endless race for property and privilege to be won
C G C
we must run, we must run, we must run

C F C
we must hang up in the belphry where the bats and moonlight laugh

C F G
we must stare into a crystal ball and only see the past
C F
and into the caverns of tomorrow with just our flashlight and our love
C G C
we must plunge, we must plunge, we must plunge

F G Am F
oh my mornings coming back the whole worlds waking up
F G Am F
all the city buses swimming past i'm happy just because
G
i found out i'm really no one

C F x 3 end on C
