[Verse 1]

F# G#m

Flat top intervention

E B

Bringing home the new invention

G#m F# E

See it there in pieces on the ground

F# G#m E B

A television war between the cynics and the saints

G#m F# E

Flip the dial and that's whose side you're on

F# G#m E B

A-sleeping on the White House lawn ain't never changed a thing

G#m A#m B

Just look at all the washed out Hippie dreams

[Verse 2]

F# G#m

The tabloid generation's lost

E B

Choking on it's fear

G#m F# E

Used to be that's all we had to fear

F# G#m E B

And conscience keeps us quiet while the crooked love to speak

G#m F# E

There's knowledge wrapped in blankets on the street

F# G#m E B

A visionary coward says that anger can be power

G#m A#m B

As long as there's a victim on TV

[Chorus]

B A E

And it's falling all around us

Is this some kind of joke they're trying to pull on us?

B A E

Fallin' all around us

B A E

I'll turn my head off for a while

[Verse 3]

G#m A C#m B G#m A

And my dirty dreams all come alive on my TV screen

C#m B G#m A

And assasination plots show me what I haven't got

C#m B G#m A

Show me what I love, and who I'm supposed to be

C#m B F# E

Show me everything I need

F# E F# E

Show it all to me
