[Verse 1]
(Palm mute the main riff, and repeat through verse)
B5
I know all of my exits
F#
I'm always plannin' my escape
B5
It's the most aggressive symptom
F#
Of this collective phantom pain
B5
And the more that you ignore it
F#
The more it makes you go insane
(Main riff)
Just look around
[Verse 2]
(Palm muted Main Riff through verse)
B5
It's the battle of the passwords
F#
It's the trumpets on the hill
B5
It's that constant paranoia
F#
It's the final fire drill
B5
And if you won't sing the anthem
F#
They'll go find someone else who will
They're crackin' down
(Main riff)

[Chorus]
G Em Bm
We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light
D G Em A
It may not make it any better, I'm just hopin' that it might
F#m G Em Bm
I'm not talkin' 'bout forever, how 'bout just gettin' through the night?
D G F#7#5 Em
We're livin' in the future, so shine a little light

[Verse 3]
(Palm mute the main riff, and repeat through verse)
B5
I'm always lookin' over shoulders
F#
Not knowin' what I’m lookin' for
B5
Now that the feelin' someone's watchin’
F#
Isn't just a feelin' anymore
B5
Now that both sides of the aisle
F#
Are this good at keepin' score
(Main riff)
We've crossed a line
[Verse 4]
(Palm muted Main Riff Through Verse)
B
There's a madness to the method
F#
There's a market for the fear
B5
It's that dance out on the razor's edge
F#
The wolf held by the ears
B5
It's the man behind the curtain
F#
It's the way of our frontiers
Since the dawn of time
(Main riff)
