Anti-Flag – Consumers Song (Guitar)

G               D                         C5 G/B C5 G/B
Don't trust them as far as you can throw them

G                           D                     Em              C    D
'Cause as strong as you may be you won't be able to move them an inch

G                                D
But you don't have to believe me go ahead And

C5     G/B       C5     G/B
Be the corporate stooge that they trained you to be and

G                        D                    C
then you'll see what you get for your loyalty!

They call it "down sizing" but that's just a backhanded saying

G                            D                      Em              C     D
for the phrase: "We're gonna screw you, till you're down on your knees

G                            D                                    C5          G/B C5        G/B
And you better not try to complain 'cause there's another hundred stiffs like you all who'd plead:

     G                                       N.C                   C
"I'd kiss your ass just for a chance to be a whore to your company!"

G                D                       C5 G/B C5 G/B
You see it every day, everywhere, on the T.V. screen

G                             D                Em             C    D
Each time a different face or family, but it's always the same

G                              D
"We worked here all our lives, gave them everything we had

    C5       G/B         C5         G/B
And now they say they're gonna move the factory

G                                  D        C
To a third world country where the labor is cheap."

D               Em                   C
But the fact my friend that you don't see

D            Em               C
Is the money you spend on the goods they make supports

D                Em           C
their methods of abuse on the third world scene

D                    Em        C        N.C.
And in your very own backyard, yes your country

G             D            C                      C    Cmaj7 Am C
So I won't be the consumer that they want me to be

G                   D                    C    Cmaj7 Am C    D
Because the goods I own, aren't going to set me free

G                   D                  C    Cmaj7 Am C
So I won't buy that crap, they want to sell me

G                   D                     C
Because the goods I own, won't set anyone free
