I asked a stGudent of higher schCooling
He sGaid he didn’t cDare
When I Gasked about the sCixties
They sGimply said long hDair
Saw a chGild getting prCogrammed
Getting prGogrammed when she wDakes
And I hGeard a raving Celder
Cursing G20 years too lDate
Oh hEmow the bAmastards scrCewed me
 DSon, lGife’s too shCort to wDait
And then the stAmudents
Of hBmigher schCooling
HDid more pGills insCide his pDlate
So GI’d like to Csend gratitDude
And thanks
 GTo those who Chad the courage
To defDy the mighty ranks
Send it to the stCudents
Who waved the bGanners
Who held flDowers up to the tanks
And to the Cones who are
Still fGighting
Yes Dall my gratitude
And all my thGanksC  G  D  G  C  G  D  
So as you sGit baked and hCammered
So grGateful to be dDead
Saying frGeedom’s here to chCill out
So sGit and rest your hDead
Think of thGose who fought
For yCour right
The pGath you walk, they pDaved
And thGose who fought for thCeir right
To cGarry until todDay
When it was tGhey who fed the hCungry,
Stormed the pGentagon for pDeace
While the Garmy rounded strCangers up
mGade them instant polDice
ThGey who made a unCion,
dodged the drGaft,
and filled the jDails
And sprGead a message of Cunity
AcrGoss the nation’s rDails
And said we’re destrEmoying
The hAmouse that MCan have built
KDicking the dGoors and pCulling nDails
And Amyou have the nBmerve to tCell me

Those who unchCained their wrist
And clGenched their fist

Gratitude And Thanks

Chords in this song · guitar

G C

I asked a student of higher schooling

G D

He said he didn’t care

G C

When I asked about the sixties

G D

They simply said long hair

G C

Saw a child getting programmed

G D

Getting programmed when she wakes

G C

And I heard a raving elder

G D

Cursing 20 years too late

Em Am C

Oh how the bastards screwed me

D G C D

Son, life’s too short to wait

And then the students

Bm C

Of higher schooling

D G C D

Hid more pills inside his plate

G C D

So I’d like to send gratitude

And thanks

G C

To those who had the courage

To defy the mighty ranks

Send it to the students

Who waved the banners

Who held flowers up to the tanks

And to the ones who are

Still fighting

Yes all my gratitude

G C G D G C G D

And all my thanks

G C

So as you sit baked and hammered

G D

So grateful to be dead

G C

Saying freedom’s here to chill out

G D

So sit and rest your head

Think of those who fought

For your right

G D

The path you walk, they paved

G C

And those who fought for their right

G D

To carry until today

G C

When it was they who fed the hungry,

G D

Stormed the pentagon for peace

G C

While the army rounded strangers up

G D

made them instant police

G C

They who made a union,

dodged the draft,

and filled the jails

G C

And spread a message of unity

G D

Across the nation’s rails

And said we’re destroying

Am C

The house that Man have built

D G C D

Kicking the doors and pulling nails

Am Bm C

And you have the nerve to tell me

D G C D

That everyone has failed

No, you should send

C D

Your gratitude and thanks

G C

To those who had the courage

To defy the mighty ranks

Send it to the students

Who waved the banners

Who held flowers up to the tanks

And to the ones who are

Still fighting

Yes all my gratitude

Am D Am D C D C D

And all my thanks

I'd like to send out a

Head, help, heart, and hand

G C

To those who had the courage

To reach and rise and stand

Send it to the lovers

And the fighters

To those who stood up and still stand

Those who unchained their wrist

And clenched their fist

Both here and in faraway lands

G C G D G C G D
