[Intro]
F# G#m Eb Am6
( 10 on D string, 11 on G, 10 on B)
E
[Verse 1]
F# G#m Eb
Just how much of this will you all allow
Am6 E Eb
To go on?
F# G#m Eb
What will it take for you to realize you're wrong?
Am6 E
Oh, so wrong
[Refrain 1]
Eb G#m
He fought with him, who fought with her
C#
Who denied the knowledge of what those altercations were
F# Ebm
All the lies and the sighs
G#m Bm
This was not so reassuring
[Pre-Chorus 1]
A
But all is well and all is merry
Bm
Even when the times are scary
E A
Every generation is the same
Resulting in this fear illusion
Bm
Is a void that breeds confusion
E A
Leading to a population tame
[Chorus]
E
I understand demand
A
And know there're no guarantees
E F#m Bm G#m
But we've been built a world that's full of small victories
[Verse 2]

Eb E E E F F F F# F# F# G G
Every day
F# G#m Eb
No one understands a word of what I say
Am6 E
"Go away"
[Refrain 2]
Eb G#m
"I rule the sun and all the stars"
C#
Say the sons and daughters whose parents bought them getaway cars
F# Ebm G#m Bm
To ignore inner war that is building up inside them
[Pre-Chorus 2]
A
From the mountains to the prairies
Bm
Everything is looking scary
E A
But the lot around me feel no pain
They live their days in mass delusion
Bm
While I coddle my seclusion
E A
Knowing that they're all laughing at Shane
[Chorus]
E
I understand demand
A
And know there're no guarantees
E F#m Bm G#m
But we've been built a land that's full of small victories
