[Verse 1]
D
When I can sense that jaws of hatred
D
Have sunk in their fangs forevermore
Em C D
I wanna be wrong, I wanna be wrong
 
D
When I can see that there's just no talking to
D
People deceived by fascists
Em C Bm E
I wanna be wrong, I wanna beee wrong
G
And I wanna say I didn't think
A E A E
That it would get so bad, so bad
 
D
When I feel like that despite our efforts
D
We're ignored and unrepresented
Em C D
I wanna be wrong, I wanna be wrong
 
[Bridge]
G A E
And I really wish that I could say that I could see the end
A E A E
The end, the end [Strum once for each]
G A A D A A A D A
But decisions get made by these pricks who benefit from disaster
G A A D A A A D A
And it's easy for you right now so you don't think about after
G
Oh, but what you gonna do when it's gotta stop?
A
Rise up in streets and got shot by the cops?
 
[Chorus]
D
You can call me crazy, baby
Bm A#
I wanna be wrong
D
You can call me crazy, baby
Bm A#
I wanna be wrong, so wrong, go

[Outro]
G A F#m Bm x4
 
G A
I wake up every day and
F#m Bm
Something new is happening, happening
G A
I wake up every day and
F#m Bm
Something bad is goin' on, goin' on
G A
I wake up every day to
F#m Bm
This new dumb reality and I think
G A F#m Bm
How will I wake up when I just don't wanna?
D G
'Cause I thought we could be better
D G Em
But I'm starting to give up

You can call me crazy, baby
Bm A#
I wanna be wrong
D
You can call me crazy, baby
Bm A# Em A
I wanna be wrong, so wrong, go
