Ebm Db
I'm putting your patience to the test
Ebm Db Ab
I'm putting your body on the line for less
Ebm Db
And didn't you know there was a choice
Ebm Db Ab
It's never yours but someone else's voice
Ebm Db
Slippin' your body through the street
Ebm Db Ab
I'm sending your girlfriends to the night for cheap
Ebm Db
Wearing a jacket made of meat
Ebm Db Ab
Sending a letter waved with walls so sweet
Ab
And now you've heard that
CHORUS
Ebm Ab
Waves turn to grey
Ebm Ab
Life in the shade
Ebm Ab
A violent cloud
Ebm Ab
And that's on USA
Ebm Ab
Running for the rights
Ebm Ab
Sleep into the sky
Ebm Ab
I'm just trying' to find
Ebm Ab
A mountain I can climb
Ebm-Db-Ebm-Db-Ab
Ebm Db
I'm putting your patience to the test
Ebm Db Ab
I'm putting your body on the line for less
Ebm Db
And didn't you know there was a choice
Ebm Db Ab
It's never yours but someone else's voice
Ab
And now you've seen that
CHORUS
Ebm Ab
Waltz on the grey
Ebm Ab
Life in the shade
Ebm Ab
A violent cloud
Ebm Ab
And that's on USA
Ebm Ab
Born on the rise
Ebm Ab
Circles in the skies
Ebm Ab
I'm just tryin' to find
Ebm Ab
A mountain I can climb
Ab-Ebm-Ab-Ebm
Ab Ebm
Tell us are you gonna tell us
Ab
Why do we feel so jealous
Ebm
Why do we feel so silent
Ab
Why is it always silent
Ebm
I didn't want to ask you baby
Ab Ebm Ab
I didn't want you to suffer and everybody is singing
Ebm-Ab-Ebm
Ebm-Db
Ebm Db Ab
Why are you waiting By the door
CHORUS
Ebm Ab
Life turns to dust
Ebm Ab
And when it turns to rust
Ebm Ab
Gossip is a truth
Ebm Ab
A little bit for the lie you took
Ebm Ab
And why do you look surprised
Ebm Ab
Ever since I'm in the skies
Ebm Ab
I'm just tryin' to find
Ebm Ab
A place for you and I
