The Revolution Will Not Be Televised chords by An Apple A Day, Lyrics Born
Verse 1
D5
D
And as always,
the revolution will not be televised.
Rest in peace my man Gil Scott Heron.
Rest in peace Mike Brown.
Rest in peace Trayvon.
Rest in peace Oscar Grant.
Rest in peace Vincent Chin.
The revolution will not be televised.
You will not be able to stay home, brother.
You will not be able to plug in,
Dm
log on, and zone out.
You will not be able to lose your
D
self on Molly E. crank oxy
or skip out for hard lemonade
during commercials
because the revolution
Dm
will not be televised.
Bm
The revolution will not be
televised.
The revolution will not be brought to you
by Guthrie Ranker
in a four -hour infomercial
without any additional
interruptions.
The revolution will not show
you pictures of George W. Bush
in a flight suit leading Dinner Grace
while throwing up in the Japanese
prime minister's lap.
The revolution will not be televised.
Am
The revolution
The will play out in the theater of life,
but will not star Jessica Simpson,
Tom Cruise,
Arnold Schwarzenegger,
or Buzz Lightyear.
The revolution will not
magically align your teeth.
The revolution will not get
rid of the shapes.
D
Am
The revolution will not give you abs of steel,
because the revolution will
not be televised, sis.

There will be no images of you
in such and such an M,
Ab
pushing a Walgreens shopping

cart down the block,
Ab
or trying to slide that big screen
Fm
Ab
into the back of a stolen Buick.
Fm
Fox News will not be able to announce
the winner of an election
Ab
before all the votes are tabulated

or report premature results
from uncounted areas.

The revolution will not be televised.

There will be no pictures
Ab

22 -year -olds in the back on a train

station platform on instant replay.

22 -year -olds

in peaceful protest on instant replay.

doing anything other than

for her accomplishments.

like giant foam hands
throwing up a peace sign that say,
Go Revolution!

The revolution will not be televised.
Fm
There will be no rerun,
Ab
brothers and sisters.
