[Intro]

C Am F G x2


[Verse 1]

    C                                Am    Took a gander at the stars above me,
    F                                    G    closed my eyes and took a breath for free.
    C                              Am    Never understood the nature of madness,
        F                             G    the tragedy of the common so they say.

    F                        G            C    Are we not the ones that manifest our destiny?
    F                      G                  Am    Are we not the ones to spill blood in the street?
    F                         G    Are we not the ones that eat our young,
    C           G        Am    destroy the land and sea,
         F                                 G    then cry for help when all is said and done?


[Verse 2]

    C                                 Am    I could never gague a world around me,
            F                                G    I could barely scale the wall that we've built.
      C                         Am    I shy away from hate, or at least I like to say.
        F                        G    But Arn't all men capable of evil?

    F                        G            C    Are we not the ones that manifest our destiny?
    F                      G                  Am    Are we not the ones to spill blood in the street?
    F                         G    Are we not the ones that eat our young,
    C           G        Am    destroy the land and sea,
         F                                 G    then cry for help when all is said and done?
         F                                 Am    Yeah cry for help when all is said and done.

[Verse 3]

    C                              Am    "Well is there such a thing as revolutions?"
             F                           G    Said the wax, collecting dust on the shelves.
          C                     Am    Let's make a mockery of the tragedy we sell,
    F                                  G    Camaraderie of the commons must be held.

    F                         G            C    Shall we be the ones that manifest our destiny?
    F                         G                Am    Shall we be the ones that clean up all our streets?
    F                         G    Shall we be the ones that care for young,
        C       G        Am    and nurture land and sea,
        F                       G    and live and die for camaraderie?
         F            G         C    Yeah live and die for camaraderie.
