[Intro]
Dm
[Verse 1]
Dm
And so the artist screams, into an empty cup
CGm
He says that you're a soulless bunch, but you could still wake up
Dm
And the capitalist, says he's born to be free
CGm
He says, "You're poor, my friends, but you don't have to be"
[Chorus 1]
Dm
Here's what we know
FBb
We don't know what we got or if we got it
GmDm
And what we had, we already forgot it
FBb
The race is evidently to the bottom
GmDm
We don't, we don't, we don't know what to say
BbGm
I don't know what to say
[Verse 2]
Dm
And so the thumpers preach, both love and hate
CGm
They say, "you're naughty filth, but you could still be saved"
Dm
And the people wait, for the bell to ring
CGm
They say, "we need a song, we need a song to sing"
[Chorus 2]
Dm
Here's what we know
FBb
We don't know what we got or if we got it
GmDm
And what we had, we already forgot it
FBb
The race is evidently to the bottom
Gm
We don't, we don't, we don't know what to say
[Bridge]
F
Don't know what it was but we want it back
Bb
Like every generation will repeat the last
F
Put a halo on a figurehead or photograph
Bb
Resist a little bit and then become the man
C
Dreaming of a simpler time, it occurs to me
Dm
That the past is hypothetical fantasy
Gm
And nostalgia just ain't what it used to be
[Solo]
DmFBbGm
[Chorus 3]
