[VERSE 1]
 AmI'm convinced they're shaCping permaGnent undoAmings
 Evidence is hiCjacked, eviGdence is ransacked
 AmI know we haven't got the best of everyCthing
 Sometimes it Gcomes but sometimes it's noAmthing
 Now we can breathe, the worst of this is over
 CI believe Gwe're stronger
[PRE-CHORUS]
 DSo much stronger, so much stronger, so much stronger
[CHORUS]
 AmLet's wind the clock Cback
 We're not your doorAmmat
 We just might bite Cback
 We are the modern Amguns
 AmThey'll try to stack us up
 GFix us good and put us into boxes
 AmIt won't be tough enough
 GWe are the modern guns
Am Am C G
