Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

Two cups of tea

one for you and one for me

drown out the pain from polluted acid rain

and flaming gasoline,

until we're clean

two dead police

one for hope and one for peace

watching government lies

leak into your empty eyes

from the t.v.

and winners history

three dead police

one for thanks and two for please

in every single town, every officer is down

all dead police,

all dead police

Chorus

fair-weather friend,

it's on you I do depend

all the mountains we climb,

crumble into sands of time

no mail to send,

to fair-weather friend

Verse 2

same as first)

anxiety, another gift from you to me

and so everything fails,

my bleeding bitten fingernails

sore as can be,

anxiety

if it was up to me, I would restart history

ignite the flame and burn the centuries of blame

the bloodstained centuries,

these bloody centuries

Chorus

same as before but x 2)

fair-weather friend,

it's on you I do depend

all the mountains we climb,

crumble into sands of time

no mail to send,

to fair-weather friend

anxiety,

another gift from you to me

and so everything fails,

my bleeding bitten fingernails

sore as can be,

anxiety

Verse 3

and in the dawn, I'll see that you have gone

and on that blood soaked bed

I'll lay down my weary head

and hum along, to this fucking song

one cup of tea, not enough for company

maybe tomorrow you will let me borrow

another cup of tea, another cup of tea

and your company, and your company
