[Intro]
F#m G#m
[Verse]
F#m
Its such a tired game
G#m
Will it ever stop
F#m
How will this all play out
G#m
Of sight,out of mind now
G#m
By now we should know
G#m
How to communicate instead of coming to blows
C#m
We're on a roll
B C#m
And there ain't no stopping us now
B C#m
We're burning under control
B C#m
Isn't it strange how
B G#m
We're all burning under the same sun
G#m
By now we say its a war for peace
G#m
Its the same old game
C#m
But do we really want to play?
B C#m
We could close our eyes its still there
B C#m
We could say its us against them
B C#m
We can try but nobody wins
B F#m
Gravity has got a hold on us all
G#m
We try to put it out
F#m
But its a growing flame
G#m
Using fear as fuel
F#m
Burning down our name
G#m
And it wont take too long
F#m
Cause words all burn the same
G#m
And who we gunna blame now?
[Bridge]
C#m B A G#m
And oh, Its such a crying crying crying shame
C#m B A G#m
Its such a crying crying crying shame
C#m B A G#m F#m
Its such a crying crying crying shame, shame, shame
[Solo]
C#mB
x4
[Verse]
G#m
By now It's beginning to show
C#m
A number of people are numbers who aint coming home
B C#m
I can close my eyes its still there
B C#m
Close my mind be alone
B C#m
I can close my heart and not care
B G#m
But gravity has got a hold on us all
G#m
It's a terrific price to pay
C#m
But in the true sense of the word
B C#m
Are we using what we've learned?
B C#m
In the true sense of the word
B C#m
Are we losing what we were?
F#m
Its such a tired game
G#m
Will it ever stop?
F#m
Is not for me to say
G#m
And is it in our blood?
F#m
Or is it just our fate?
G#m
And how will this all play out
F#m
Of sight, out of mind now
G#m
And who we gonna blame?
[Outro]
On and on
C#m B A G#m
Its such a crying crying crying shame
C#m B A G#m
Its such a crying crying crying shame
C#m B A G#m F#m C#m
Its such a crying crying crying shame shame shame
