[Verse 1]
C# F# F# C# F# F#
Thank God I was born in a time when something new was about to start
C# D#m D#m A#m F# F#
Been shut down I've been kicked around now there's an a-bomb in my heart
C# F# F# C# F# F#
And I know that the times are rough but I won't play dead while I'm alive
C# D#m D#m A#m C# C#
So hang on and we'll turn up the sound of all the anger in our hearts
[Pre-Chorus]
F#
'Cause right now under this fevering moon
G#
I wanna take you for a ride
A#m
To the reasons you need be it hunger or greed
B
It's ok
[Chorus]
C# F# F#
Tell me a joke and make me smile
C# Fm7 Fm7
Play me the part be the star for a while
A#m G# F# F# F#
Absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby

Gimme a wink, Let me know you're alive
C# Fm7 Fm7
Do what you will, we're only here for a while

C# F# F# C# F# F#
And I know that the times are rough but I won't play dead while I'm alive
C# D#m D#m A#m F# F#
For I long for the shock and the awe of speaking plainly from my mind
C# F# F# C# F# F#
But I know there's a place downtown where they say there's a bug-free zone
C# D#m D#m A#m C# C#
So let's go, let's head out tonight and let the words in our minds spill out
[Pre-Chorus]
F#
'Cause right now under this fevering moon
G#
I wanna take you for a ride
A#m
To the reasons you need be it hunger or greed
B
It's all and a little bit more as we come alive again
