Chords

[Intro] Em G7 C E [Verse 1]
Em                                 G7
What if one day we just refused to play?

C                                     E
With no one to hate, they'd be out of a job

Em                                 G7
You've gone off script, you just can't walk away

         Am                   D
Leave us naked, fleeced and racked with sobs
[Chorus 1]
G  D
Whoa

F                     C                         G
We're locked in a death grip and it's taking its toll

 G           D            F         C
When our enemies are what make us whole

G         D
Listen to me

 F         C               G
No more excuses, no more apathy

G                     D        F        C
This ain't no archipelago, no remote atoll
[Verse 2]
       Em                         G7
All my enemies, they just fall in love with me

        C                              E
Keeping us distracted while the till gets robbed

  Em
All our cries were cried

    G7
Now there are no sides

Am                           D
Try selling that one to an angry mob
[Chorus 2] G D F C x2
G  D
Whoa

F            C                      G
J. Edgar Hoover wore a white mink stole

G       D                      F
His enemies are what made him whole

                   C
Oh, what made him whole

                                    G
(His enemies are what made him whole)

G  D
Whoa

F               C                  G
A three-headed monster swallows Tokyo

 G                              D
Her enemies are what make her whole

            C                    G
(Her enemies are what make her whole)

 G   D
Whoa(Our enemies are what make us whole)

F                   C                            G
We're locked in a death grip and it's taking its toll

 G           D                      F
When our enemies are what make us whole

                              C      G
(Our enemies are what make us whole)

 G D
Whoa(Our enemies are what make us whole)

 F          C                 G
No more excuses, no more apathy

 G                    D                 F C
This ain't no archipelago, no remote atoll
[Outro] G D F C
