F#
Is it better not to look back or
G#m
should we dust off our journals
B
Stare deep through the feedback for the new day
F#
Like the distortion has things to say
F#
Is it better to ignore it, that
G#m
these bomb shelters are built of sand
B
Scoring themes from our views, making movies of tragic news
F#
Does this helpless picnic have its own Neverland
Chorus
F#
America never hurts
G#m
They say America never cries
B
Like no one's lost in America
F#
No one's lost in America
F#
Listening to pink noise, we make
G#m
Mirrors out of shop windows
B
No one dares to pull the red card,
F#
conscience is scared by truths we'd discard
F# G#m
And now we've Arilius, but soon comes Decious,
B
and perhaps Constantine is a devil
F#
Keen on making things easy
Chorus
E B G#m
Come alive, come alive
E B G#m F#
Come alive, come alive
F#
The prophet's cello's silenced,
G#m
If love burns us down to violence
B
If the whims of the nations cater
F#
elation will we not need a soul to blame?
F#
He has to take it all alone
G#m
Is His move political, a play for the people? No
B
He takes one for the little guy
G#m
He takes a hit for the little guy
F#
They say America never hurts
G#m
They say America never cries,
B
Like no one's lonely in America
F#
Like no one's lonely in America
