|E             E               |Am               D              |E     
 When a man is running from his boss who holds a gun that fires "cost" 
           E             |Am           D                   |E      
And people die from being old or left alone because they're cold 
              E                  | 
And bombs are dropped on fighting  
Am                 |D                  |E 
cats and children's dreams are run with rats 
          E             |Am                 D           |(E) 
If you complain you disappear just like the lesbians and queers

{acoustic in} 
|E        E   E        E   E  |Am            Am D              |E 
   No one can love without the grace of some unseen and distant face 
        E   E      E  E |Am                Am   D                 |E 
And you get beaten up by blacks who though they work still got the sack 
         E    E          E   E |Am          Am D              E|E 
And when your soul tells you to hide your very right to die's denied 
       E   E      E  E  |Am                Am D          E|E 
And in the battle on the streets you fight computers and receipts 
         E E      E      E |Am          Am D         E   |E 
And when a man is trying to change it only causes further pain 
                                                 {acoustic out} 
    E  E         E  E|Am       Am    D       D  |D      |       | 
You realize that all along something in us going wrong
