GDCBE
VERSE:
E - D - EGA
wake up with the feeling the whole world has got you down
E - DE
pressure that keeps building's
CG
got you dragging on the ground
E - D - EGD
chaos keeps on closing in no answers to be found

for what you are feeling now
E - D - EGA
danger that surrounds you it gets worse here everyday
E - D - ECG
criminals in power want to take your rights away
E - D - EGD
never here your protest they won't let you have your say
CB
can't find a better way but you don't
CHORUS: I guess this would be called staccato
EGADECGDE
try sit there and whine about your decline
GDCBE
I think its a pathetic sort of life you choose
GADECGDEGD
methods abused solutions refused good for you
CBE
but someday you will lose your life
GDE
without even giving it a try
GDE
depression's the only thing you'll find
CGD
give it a chance before you die
CBE
just got one day to get a life
VERSE 2: same chords
everyday procrastinate you won't get very far
listen to religion try and tell you who you are
marionettes on tv sets parade across your screen
don't know what it all means
think there is no point in trying to get up each day
when problems that confound you only speed your slow decay
future's relegated to a bland pathetic waste
can't find a better way but you don't
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
E F#-Gii-D C B D (repeat)
EF# - Gii - D
know you'll never make it you don't even want to try
CBD
waiting for the day when you can curl up and die
EF# - Gii - D
no one's gonna listen no one's out to get you
CBDE
blame anyone you want you get the life you choose
CD
so when're you gonna get a clue
ECD
the world's not gonna wait for you
ECGDCB
only you can make it all come true
VERSE 3: same chords
a never ending struggle but one day you see the light
may not think you'll make it but
won't give up without a fight
recline to aspirations of what you think is right
fight on with all your might but you don't
repeat CHORUS and that's it
