F#m                                  G                      D
If we can call them friends then we can call them on their telephones

Bm              D                      G                         D
And they won't pretend that they're too busy or that they're not alone

                        E                    G
And if we can call them friends then we can call

E                                  G
Holler at them down these hallowed halls

E                                            G
Just don't let the human factor fail to be a factor

D
At all
D G
D                G
Don't, don't you worry, about the atmosphere

                       D            G
Or any sudden pressure change

D
Cause I know

           G              D
That it's starting to get warm in here;

           G                   D          G D G
And things are starting to get strange
[Verse]
     D  F#m           Bm Gm  Em          F#m
And did you, did you see how all of our friends were there

             Em7     Em             D           G   Em
And they're drinking roses from the can?

    D    F#m        Bm Gm      Em      F#m
And how, how I wish I, I had talked to them

      Em7       Em           D       Gm A D   Dm G A     D
And I wish they fit into the plan
[Chorus]
            Bb             A  D
And we were tired of being mild

            Bb            A  D
We were so tired of being mild

       G     A
And we were tired...
[Verse]
                      D
I know we're going to meet some day

        F#m                       G
In the crumbled financial institutions of this land

              D
There will be tables and chairs

            A
There'll be pony rides and dancing bears

Em
There'll even be a band

      D
Cause listen,

                               A         F#
after the fall there will be no more countries;

   G             Em
No currencies at all

            D
We're gonna live on our wits
We're gonna throw away survival kits
      G                         Em
Trade butterfly-knives for Adderall

    D
And that's not all!

A                      G
Ooh-ooh, there will be snacks there will

Em          D              F#m   G
There will be snacks, there will be

           Gm
There will be snacks

            Bb             A  D
And we were tired of being mild

            Bb            A  D
We were so tired of being mild

       G     A
And we were tired...
[Instrumental] D A G D A G Em D G D G A D Bb A D
            Bb             A  D
And we were tired of being mild

            Bb            A  D
We were so tired of being mild

       Bb     A
And we were tired...
[Outro]
   D
So don't you

       G   Em
Don't you worry

              D
About the atmosphere
