Malcolm X never lived to see the government fall,
        Am       C                  G       F
but the state he opposed made him a stamp.

                 Am           C               G          F
Maybe that's the best you can hope for if you never give up:
     Am           C                 G  F
your enemies will teach your corpse to dance.
    Am          C                        G     F
And you and me, buddy, we've been living for a ghost
                   Am           C            G       F
when we ain't been sticking our heads in the sand,
   Am       C              G      F
so when I'm afraid take me by the hand
     Am      C             G        F
and show the world that we can't be planned.
     C             G          Em                     F
It's alright, it's okay, it's just that everything's fucked.
     C             G          Em                     F
It's alright, it's okay, it's just that everything's fucked.

Catch me smashing my own windows when I'm feeling nuts.

It's alright, it's okay, it's just that everything's fucked.

          Am           C       G         F
I've been lying on the ground, alone and unwashed,
    Am         C          G        F
without enough courage to brush my teeth.
      Am          C             G           F
I'm afraid of the red that will pour out my gums
    Am          C           G      F
and bleed me to death in my sleep. 
          Am      C               G        F
I've been staying inside with the curtains down,
    Am        C             G      F
ignoring what phone calls I get,
   Am          C           G      F
so when I come out take me by the hand
    Am       C                G          F
and show the world a fight it won't forget.
     C             G          Em                     F
It's alright, it's okay, it's just that everything's fucked. x5
