Lyrics :
Am F2 D C B open
See the devil on the doorstep now (my oh my)
Am F2 D C B
Telling everybody oh just how to live their lives
Am F
Sliding down the information highway
G
Buying in just like a bunch of fools
Am F D C B
Time is ticking and we can't go back (my oh my)
Am F
What about the world today
G
What about the place that we call home
Am F
We've never been so many
G
And we've never been so alone
(Chorus) Power chords
A F
You keep watching from your picket fence
G
You keep talking but it makes no sense
A F
You say we're not responsible
D C B
But we are, we are
A F
You wash your hands and come out clean
G
Fail to recognise the enemies within
A F
You say we're not responsible
D C B
But we are, we are, we are, we are
Am F2 D C B
One step forward making two steps back (my oh my)
Am F2 D C B
Riding piggy on the bad boys back for life
Am F
Lining up for the grand illusion
G
No answers for no questions asked
Am F
Lining up for the execution
D
Without knowing why
(Chorus)Power chords
A F
You keep watching from your picket fence
G
You keep talking but it makes no sense
A F
You say we're not responsible
D C B
But we are, we are
A F
You wash your hands and come out clean
G
Fail to recognise the enemies within
A F
You say we're not responsible
D C B
But we are, we are, we are, we are
F
It's all about power then
Take control
/D
Breaking the rule
Breaking the soul
F
They suck us dry till there's nothing left
/D
My oh my, my oh my
F
What about the world today
/D
What about the place that we call home
F
We' ve never been so many
D XX XX XX
And we've never been so alone.... so alone
(Chorus)

They suck us dry till there's nothing left (we are, we are)
