C Bb Am G# G7 (X2)

[Verse 1]
C                 Bb
I was hoping we'd make real progress -
Am                    G#         G7
But it seems we have lost the power
C         Bb
Any tiny step of advancement
Am                         G#          G7
Is like a raindrop falling into the ocean -
C                                  Em
We're running on the spot - always have - always will?
                F                     G#               G7
We're just the next generation of the emotionally crippled.

[Verse 2]
C                           Bb
Though we keep piling up the building blocks
     Am                      G#        G7
The structure never seems to get any higher
C                       Bb
Because we keep kicking out the foundations
     Am                      G#          G7
And stand useless while our lives fall down.
  C                        Em
I believe in life - and I believe in love
         F                                G#                  G7
But the world in which I live in - keeps trying to prove me wrong.

Em                     Am
Out in the pastures we call society
  Em                           Am                  G slide to F
You can't see further than the bottom of your glass
F              Fm
Only young but easily shocked
G                            G7                 C  Bb Am
You get all violent when the boat gets rocked -
G#             G7            C
Its Just like running on the spot

[Verse 3]
 Em                      Am
Just like sheep - little lambs into the slaughter
Em                      Am                 G F
Don't fully grasp what exactly is wrong -
F            Fm
Truth is you never cared - still -
G                            G7
You get all violent when the boat gets rocked -
C                         Bb
Intelligence should be our first weapon
   Am             G#        G7
And stop reveling in rejection
     C                           Bb
And follow yourselves, not some ageing drain brain
       Am                     G#              G7
Whose quite content to go on feeding you garbage
C                                  Em
We're running on the spot - always have - always will?
