Verse
G#
I see it in the headlines every week
D#/G
Got another young lover dead on the street
C#
And as his mother breaks down
G#
There’s nothing I can do or say
G#
The politician sends his thoughts and prayers
D#/G
He’s got a razor sharp tongue, but does he really care
C#
Now I’m waking up tired
G#
When I read that nothing’s changed
[Chorus]
A#m
We’re all soldiers
C# G#
Marching endlessly
G# D#/F#
In long hair and skinny jeans
A#m
Young and fearless
C# G#
Repeating history
G# D#/F#
For the world that we want to see
D#/F#
In long hair and skinny jeans
[Hook]
A#m
(Ooh)
C#
(Ooh)
G# D#/G
(Ooh)
[Verse]
G#
Strangers in a town that I’ve never seen
D#/G
Watch their homes burn down in catastrophe
C#
And I’m looking for a star
G#
But this ain’t no movie screen
G#
The scientists’ words won’t be believed
D#/G
Got so many deniers stealing truth like thieves
C#
And as the rain pours down
G#
I’m praying they get washed away
[Chorus]
A#m
We’re all soldiers
C# G#
Marching endlessly
G# D#/F#
In long hair and skinny jeans
A#m
Young and fearless
C# G#
Repeating history
G# D#/F#
For the world that we want to see
D#/F#
In long hair and skinny jeans
A#m
(Ooh)
C#
(Ooh)
G# D#/G
(Ooh)
[Chorus Alt]
A#m
Don’t grow older
C# G#
Wishing you’d said your piece
G# D#/G
That won’t happen to me
A#m
We’re still young and fearless
C# G#
Repeating history
G# D#/G
For the world that we wanna see
D#/G
In long hair and skinny jeans
