Intro Riff x4

Main Riff w/Intro Riff x2

Em (½)        C (½)              G (½)    D (½)

   Hear the sound of the falling rain,

Em (½)        C (½)           G (½)   B (½)
    Coming down like an Armageddon

Em (½)         C (½)         G (½)         D (½)

flame, the shame, the ones who died

      B (2)

without a name

Em (½)         C (½)            G (½)    D (½)
   Hear the dogs howling out of key,

Em (½)   C                  G (½)          B (½)
    To a hymn called "Faith and Misery"

Em        C            G            D            B (2)
    And bleed, the company lost the war today

Intro Riff x2

Em (½)         C (½)               G (½)    D (½)

   Hear the drum pounding out of time,

Em (½)         C (½) G (½)      B (½)
   Another protester has crossed the

Em      C           G         D         B (2)
line to find the money's on the other side

Em (½)     C (½)   G (½)      D (½)
   Can I  get   another Amen?

Em (½)         C (½)                G (½)         B (½)
   There's a flag wrapped around the score of

Em        C         G       D             B (2)
men, a gag, a plastic bag on a monument

No chord:
The representative from California has the floor
Sieg Heil to the president gas man,
Bombs away is your punishment,
Pulverize the Eiffel towers,
Who criticize your government,
Bang, Bang goes the broken glass, man,
Kill all the ones that don't agree,
Trials by fire setting fire,

                               D (1/4)   B (1/4)  Em (½)
Is not a way that's meant   for       me,

          B (4)
Just cause,
Just cause because we're outlaws, yeah!

Em           C                      G                     D
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies,

Em             C                    G              B
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives 

Em           C                      G                     D
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies,

Em             C                    G              B (4)
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives   this is our lives on holiday
