[Verse 1]
(Palm mute the main riff, and repeat through verse)
A5
I know all of my exits
E
I'm always plannin' my escape
A5
It's the most aggressive symptom
E
Of this collective phantom pain
A5
And the more that you ignore it
E
The more it makes you go insane
(Main riff)
Just look around
[Verse 2]
(Palm muted Main Riff through verse)
A5
It's the battle of the passwords
E
It's the trumpets on the hill
A5
It's that constant paranoia
E
It's the final fire drill
A5
And if you won't sing the anthem
E
They'll go find someone else who will
They're crackin' down
(Main riff)

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

[Verse 3]
(Palm mute the main riff, and repeat through verse)
A5
I'm always lookin' over shoulders
E
Not knowin' what I’m lookin' for
A5
Now that the feelin' someone's watchin’
E
Isn't just a feelin' anymore
A5
Now that both sides of the aisle
E
Are this good at keepin' score
(Main riff)
We've crossed a line
[Verse 4]
(Palm muted Main Riff Through Verse)
A
There's a madness to the method
E
There's a market for the fear
A5
It's that dance out on the razor's edge
E
The wolf held by the ears
A5
It's the man behind the curtain
E
It's the way of our frontiers
Since the dawn of time
(Main riff)
