DWay back in the dayBm, when we were young
FmOur lives were long
And gGod was still talking
DWith us
BmWe knew the earth, we had respect
FmFor the other creatures thGat shared her surface.
DWith us.
BmThe stars were bright, they held our future,
FmBut the smog and lights mGade them grow dimmer.
DWe forgot infinitAy,
Divided days into Gseconds.
BmThings got a bit crazy. 
(play this part fast twice)
G D F# Bm G D
BmWe have religions now, and holy wars, cigarettes
AAnd health insurance. tax brackets Bmand economic class,
Slavery and dArone attacks. We’re civilized anBmd getting fat
Torturing animals, puAmped with chemicals 
BmWe assimilate, but don’t create, our words are filAled with lies and hate.
BmWe think we’re free, but we can’t speak.
DWe cry when we are Ahappy.
GKeep your head on, fDriend.
I F#know this world’s crazy, buBmt we, the bottom A90k,
GmCan change this mess that weD’re in.
F#One thing I’Bmm sure of; my feet are on tDhe ground, and I’m rBmunning.
G D G Bm G D
GI’ve got Bma wishing list, and my guitar.
A couple fists, a couple DscarsA  
BmAnd ill make this world a better place,
For the kids I plan to have one dayD  A  
BmWith my loving wife back in seattle
KDeeping a famiAly is half the battle
Because Bmif you can’t love,
Or keep a promise, you are the problem,
DYou’re my Atarget.
GKeep your head on, fDriend.
I F#know this world’s crazy, buBmt we, the bottom A90k,
