[Verse 1]
          Am             D             C          D
Well it's another social worker in his government disguise
Am                 D                            C                D
Sitting behind his bullet-proof glass trying to tell me about my rights
Am      D                      C               D
I don't like the way that he's asking me these questions
Am    D                C       D
I can read between the lines
Am      D                  C         D        Am          D     C     D

[Verse 2]
        Am     D               C                  D
Another communications network brings you to your knees
        Am        D                C                    D
They're genocidal maniacs, they're doing just what they please
Am               D                       C               D
Gotta move these mountains cause they're standing in the way
Am             D                      C                     D
If it's in the name of progress, son, yeah, we can make you pay for our

[Verse 3]
     Am              D             C                D
It's never seemed so tragic now as dawn breaks into day
       Am           D                   C                D
You're staring at a tower block where a green field once lay
Am      D                     C         D
All the mighty rivers full of factory decay
Am           D                     C                  D
Is this just some small price that we have learned to pay for your
