This is a very simple version that should also be playable just as fine on an acoustic. Verse 1:
C  G   D        C       G    D
We all know politicians only go 

C        G   D
Just halfway there 

C        G   D
Just halfway there 

    C   G        D              C       G    D
The innocence of youth needs protection not abuse 

    C      G        D
But no one seems to care 

    C      G        D
Yet no one seems to care 
Chorus 1:
   Em       C         G                   D
And you sit there and watch the world go 'round 

          Em     C          G       D
From your pseudo-benevolent vantage point 

      Em            C               G      D
While we who've been left to pick up after you 

Em                          C             D       C  G D 
Try our best to make some sense for those who come next 
C G D (3x) Verse 2:
    C    G        D       C   G     D
Now what have you done to foster the truth 

   C         G        D
Besides just hide the lies? 

   C         G        D
Besides just hide the lies? 

  C       G   D          C    G        D
A selfish campaign never justifies the gain 

    C         G       D
But the means are verified 

     C         G       D
Yeah the means are verified 
Chorus 2:
    Em      C            G           D
And you sit there and insist you are right! 

          Em         C         G    D
From your popular psychological podium 

      Em        C             G     D
While those who rely and depend on you 

Em                    C               D      C  G D 
They wilt because you don't accept we need each other 
C G D (7x) Ending:
    Em          C         G   D
While sowing the seeds of Utopia 

   Em            C         G  D
You invoked a convenient amnesia 

Em                C     Em                C 
You forgot how to care, you forgot how to provide 

Em                C             D          G (let ring)
You forgot how to work toward a meaningful life
