Intro
G# (simply vary using the b string in C-formation and then on third thread, and the e-string)
[Verse 1]
G#
We were the Reagan kids
C# D# G#
Our heroes didn't work like our daddies did
C# D# G#
They dazzled us with TV through sleepy lids
D#
We followed hulking maniacs to prozac nation
C# (G)
"You can be anything, just get your education"
G#
We were good Christian kids
C# D# G#
We went to church on sunday mornings like mama did
C# D# G#
Teenage love made us feel guilty and so we hid
D#
Under those overpasses on summer nights
C#
We'd tear each other's clothes off
(G)
And get into fights
[Chorus]
A#m C#
Then we roared right through our twenties
D# G#
Never bargained for a crash
A#m C#
Watched our hollow dreams get buried
D# G#
Under heaps of plastic trash
A#m C# D# Fm
Broken promises to children leaving idelible impressions
C# D# G#
Welcome to the great depression
[Verse 2]
G#
We were our father's sons
C# D# G#
Playing war on weekend days with our plastic guns
C# D# G#
Catching up with who we were through the reruns
D#
"Eat your vitamins and say your prayers
C# (G)
You'll become doctors, lawyers and millionairs"
G#
We were misguided kids
C# D# G#
Tried to fuck our way through such a distorted world
C# D# G#
Confusing love and sex and plastic with pearls
D#
"Get what you can for yourself, leave the rest behind"
C# (G)
It's freedom forever 'til your card gets declined
[Chorus]
A#m C#
Then we roared right through our twenties
D# G#
Never bargained for a crash
A#m C#
Watched our hollow dreams get buried
D# G#
Under heaps of plastic trash
A#m C# D# Fm
Broken promises to children leaving idelible impressions
C# D# G#
Welcome to the great depression
[Bridge]
G# G#
C# Fm
G# G#
Did he die for your sins?
Did he leave us for dead?
C# Fm
If you wanted us safe why would you fuck with our heads?
G# G#
The factory's gone, the loans are foreclosed
C# Fm
But there's some places left that still remind me of home
G# G#
C# Fm
There's some places left that still remind me of home
G# G#
C# Fm
Just give me one place left that reminds me of home
[Outro]
C# D# Fm
The lifeboat is looking pretty full
C# D# Fm D# C#
If you find some room reach out and give me a pull
C# D# Fm
The way we learned to live is fading fast
C# D# G#
I guess we never bargained for a crash
C# D# G#
I guess we never bargained for a crash
C# D# G#
I know we never bargained for a crash
