Verse 1
I'm (A minor) sick from breathing
in the fumes
of society's schizophrenic
fumes (E flat major) (A minor)
(E flat major)
(C5) Protest, (A minor) retention, smog, no offense
Dis (E flat major) cipline, (A minor) blood,
cruel misgovernment
(C5) But I'm (A minor) sick of obsessive,
repressive submis (E flat major) sion
A (A5) country (D major) imprisoned by
(A minor) de ceit (E flat major) ful attention
(C minor) Fear, (A minor) (C5) (A minor) stealth, and consumers
not trading (E flat major) their (A minor) rights
(C5) for (A minor) (C major) illu (A minor) sions of (E flat major) safety (C5)
(A minor) I'm sleeping with (C5) a gas
mask (B5) on tonight,
(A minor) hand grenade and ma
(C5) chine gun (E flat major) by my (A5) side
I'm (A minor) headed for (C5) the (B5) terrorist (A minor) s to strike,
if I could (C5) just close my (E flat major) eyes
Wel (A minor) come to the Amer (E flat major) ican night (D5) mare,
(A minor) one of each to the (E flat major) fascist (D5) re gime
(A minor) Wel come to the Amer (E flat major) ican Nightmare (D5)
(A minor) It was a time when
(E flat major) we called this (D5) a dream
Boun (E minor) cing (A minor) from (C major) freez (C5) ing in (B5) the (A5) fumes
(A minor) Of society's (C5) schizo (E flat major) phrenic (A minor) fumes
I use my words as (C major) a weapon
(C5) and (B5) it's time to choose
(A minor) I pull my trigger and (C5) the target
is (E flat major) you (A minor) (E flat major) (A5) (A minor)
(E flat major)
(C5) Sit (A minor) down, shut up, your life is a (A5) lie
(E flat major) Evaluate, (A5) (A minor) re -educate,
your gut is fine (E flat major)
(C5) I'm sick (A minor) of malicious,
ignatious depic (E flat major) tions
Of coun (A minor) tries pol (D major) luted by disin
(E flataug) clined (E flat major) screenshots
(A minor) Trust, sell, corporations
are (E flat major) buying our lives
(A minor) For (D minor) (A minor) their love (A5) of the (E flat major) profit
(A5) Brain (A minor) washed the masses (C5) to (B5) believe
(A minor) Fears full of lies (C5) to (E flat major) prophecy
(A minor) Watch them line their pock
(C5) ets as (B5) we flee
(A5) I'll spread the (A minor) truth like a
(C5) rampant dis (E flat major) ease
They (A minor) give you pill (C5) s to (B5) make
you compla (A minor) cent
Fall into (C5) place and to (E flat major) match you up to
(A minor) I'll stick my fin (C5) gers (B5) down my throat
(A minor) And reject their control
(C5) (E flat major) (D5) (D major) (D5) (E flat major) (D5)
(E flat major) (B5) (A5) (E flat major) (D5) I want
to know how you (E flat major) can sleep at night
Nev (B5) er return my clothes, (A5) my (E flat major) eyes
Are (D5) your (D major) dream (D5) s a (E flat major) dream like mine?
(B5) Or want to learn and (D major) drive (D5) the (E flat major) day?
Wake (A5) up (D5) , open (A5) your (B5) eyes,
time to (D5) rise (A5) up, (D5) take (B5) arm s and fight (B flat5)
Wake (D5) (A5) up (D5) , (A5) (D5) open (A5) your eyes,
(D5) time to (A5) rise (C5) up (D5) ,
take (A5) arm s and (B5) fight (A5)
(A minor) Welcome to the Amer (E flat major) ican (D5) Nightmare
(A5) One (A minor) nation, a (E flat major) fascist (D minor) re gime
(A minor) Wel come to (A5) (A minor) the Americ
(E flat major) an Night (D minor) (D5) mare
(A minor) It was a time when
(E flat major) we promised no (D5) dream
Once (A minor) you open your (C5) eyes,
you (B5) will believe
(A5) This (A minor) is not a (C5) dream, it's (E flat major) reality
(A5) You (A minor) can watch (A5) it (C5) on your
(B5) television (A5) screen
Just (C5) tune in and (E flat major) see
Watch (A5) (A minor) as your (C5) nightmare comes (B5) to (A5) life
Think of (A minor) getting (C5) hooked,
watch (E flat major) it every night
(A5) Wrap (A minor) (A5) all (A minor) the (C5) wires from (B5)
the (A5) wall up (A minor)
(C5) Disconnecting from it all
