Verse 1
Am 
I've got
the 21st century survival blues
G 
A condition brought on by
watching the news
Dm 
Things have been quiet for far too long
E 
And if I know human beings,
things are gonna go wrong
Am 
We were raised in a glade
of unsustainable peace
G 
Not many of us ever have to
live on our knees
Dm 
I'm scared that I won't have the
strength that it takes
Esus4 
E 
To stand up       when the levee breaks
G 
So meet me at home

Am 
I've got the 21st century
survival blues
G 
A generation raised up without
paying its dues
Dm 
Comfortable enough to play
around with doubt
Esus4 
E 
Without knowing  how to survive
when the lights go out
Am 
And if we take away the things
that they've been depending on
G 
We'll be flailing like children
in a nursery home
Dm 
So I started making lists
of the essential things
Esus4 
E 
For when the storms   bring what they bring

blow and the world gets cold

You can't trust kindness
and you can't eat gold
