original Tab by Melissa Liznick with corrections from Eugenio d_room - now we've got the solo :-).
Chords used: Dm, Am, Em, Em7, F, C, G
Intro: Am, Em, F, C, Em7
AmEm
The future teaches you to be alone
FC
The present to be afraid and cold
FCG
"So if I can shoot rabbits then I can shoot fascists."
AmEm
Bullets for your brain today
FC
But we'll forget it all again
F
Monuments put from pen to paper
CG
Turns me into a gutless wonder.
DmCG
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
FCGG
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
GGG
Will be next, Will be next, Will be next.
Repeat as was above:
AmEm
Gravity keeps my head down
FC
Or is it maybe shame
FCG
At being so young and being so vain.
AmEm
Holes in your head today
FC
But I'm a pacifist
FCG
I've walked La Ramblas but not with real intent.
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
Will be next, Will be next, Will be next.

some notes are highly played and repited
DmC
"And on the street tonight-
GFCG
An old man plays with newspaper cuttings of his glory days."
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
Will be next, Will be next, Will be next.
Aaaaaaaah, aaaaaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aah-aah
AH-ah, Ah-ah
ends with a "G"
