Bad Religion – Victims Of The Revolution (Guitar)

Am        C               G      D
What will prove to be our big mistake?

Am            C          G            D
Short-sighted arrogance, all for what sake?

    Am          C           G           D
Our families to ashes, our ambitions to dust

    Am          C                  D
Our progeny, in silence, thinking "what about us?"

Em        C  D       Em       C  D
But don't forget the dance of neglect

    Em          C            G   D
The march for empowering prosperity

    Em                 C               G   D
The pain from loss and want for mere lucidity

                          C
Just maternal residue and I was there too

    Em
And maybe so were you

Am               C                   G     D
When something is won, it comes with sacrifice

     Am                C        G         D
It's there beneath the joy, the glory and pride

Am             C                 G        D
Rarely it's acknowledged, but in positive light

Am           C           D
Consciously omitting the losers plight

Em        C  D       Em       C  D
But don't forget the dance of neglect

    Em          C            G   D
The craving for community that never was met

    Em          C            G   D
The longing for status and overture of regret

                        C
With no one to deter pathetically unsure

   Em
Forgetting who they were

                          C
Just maternal residue and I was there too

    Em
And maybe so were you
