225 Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

DShe stares at the screen

At the little words of green

AmTries to remember wGhat to do nexDt

DThere's a trace of frustration

That crosses her face

AmSearching for the kGeys she should preDss

FAnd I would help her

If I onlDy know how

But these thinCgs are a mystery to me tFoo

And it sDeems that the coGrporate

AmEyes they are waGtching

She feDars for her joGb

And the momeAmnts are passGing

I staDre at her nametaGg

And thAmink to myselGf

Both you and DI, we never askeCd

For anyD of this

Chord pattern is the same for the rest of the song

So let's take a walk

Up past the chemical works

Where the sky turns green at night

And we'll talk about

Bout getting away from here

Some difference kind of life

But even in the freshest mountain air

While the jet fighters practice overhead

And they're drilling these hills

For uranium deposits

And they'll bury the waste

For our children to inherit

And though this is all done

For our own benefit, I swear

We never asked for any of this

Well this golden age of communication

Means everyone talks at the same time

And liberty just means

Some freedom to exploit

Any weakness that you can find

Well turn off the TV just for a while

Let us whisper to each other instead

And we'll hope that the corporate ears

Do not listen

Unless we find ourselves committing

Some kind of treason

And filed in the tapes

Without rhyme, without reason

While they tell us that it's all

For our own protection, I swear

We never asked for any of this...
