[Verse 1]

D
As I finally meet my end
F#
I won't be scared, I won't defend
Bm
The things I've done
C G
I don't need him like you do
C G
I don't fear him like you do

As my world revolves the sun
F#
I hope the light that I become

Can sleep for once
C G
I won't leave it like you do
C G
I won't lead it like you do
C G
I won't leave it like they do
C E
I don't need him like they do


[Pre-Chorus]

D F#
I just want to sleep forever
Bm
Never see tomorrow
C G
Or lead or follow
D F#
I don't want to work forever
Bm
Know what I know
C G
Or beg or borrow


[Chorus 1]

D
Just like our mothers
F#
Who gave us our homes
Bm
We'll be just like our fathers
C G
And go out on our own

D
'Cause we are the colors
F#
Of all that you see
Bm
We'll be just like our brothers
C G
And take to the streets
G7
And take to the streets


[Post-Chorus]

D F#
I just want to sleep forever
Bm
Never see tomorrow
C G
Or lead or follow


[Verse 3]

D
As my world it hides behind

The words only your wars define
Bm
They read a lot like news
C G
But I fear it more than you
C E
I fear it more than you


[Pre-Chorus]

D F#
I just want to sleep forever
Bm
Never see tomorrow
C G
Or lead or follow
D F#
I don't want to work forever
Bm
Know what I know

Or beg or borrow


[Chorus 2]

D
Just like old lovers
F#
Who never leave home
Bm
We'll forget the city
C G
We'll forgot the roads

D
'Cause we are all rebels
F#
Never do what we're told
Bm
We may not grow money
C G
But man we grow old
G7
Man we grow old


[Pre-Chorus]

D F#
I just want to sleep forever
Bm
Never see tomorrow
C G
Or lead or follow
D F#
I don't want to work forever
Bm
Know what I know
C G
Or beg or borrow


[Chorus 3]

D
Just like our mothers
F#
Who gave us homes
Bm
We'll be just like our fathers
C G
And go out on our own

D
'Cause we are the colors
F#
Of all that you see
Bm
We'll be just like our brothers
C G
And take to the streets


[Chorus 4]

D
'Cause we are all children
F#
Yeah we are all man
Bm
It may not be much
C G
But we do what we can

D
Don't need no preacher
F#
To make us believe
Bm
That everything's perfectly
C G D
Fucked up like me
