C *
Trouble travels fast

C *                                 Am *
When you're specially designed for crash testing

                                  Em * 
Or wearing wool sunglasses in the afternoon

                                F
Come on and tell us what you're trying to prove

           C *
Cuz it's a battle when you dabble in war

                      Am *
You store it up, unleash it, then you piece it together

                     Em *
Whether the storm drain running rampant just stamp it

                   F
And send it to somebody who's pretending to care

Just cash in your blanks for little toy tanks

             Am *
Learn how to use them, then abuse them and choose them

            Em *
Over conver-sations relationships are overrated

   F
"I hated everyone" said the sun

          C *
So I will cook all your books

                C *
You're too good looking and mistooken

          Am *
You could watch it instead

                                     Em *
From the comfort of your burning beds
F /G * …Or you can sleep through the static
C         G          Am
Who needs sleep when we've got love?

F         G         C
Who needs keys when we've got clubs?

C         G           Am
Who needs please when we've got guns?

F         G          C
Who needs peace when we've gone above

    C      G                    Am
But beyond where we should have gone?

        F      G                    C
We went beyond where we should have gone

 C *
Stuck between channels my thoughts all quit

               Am *
I thought about them too much, allowed them to touch

      Em *
The feelings that rained down on the plains all dried and cracked

       F
Waiting for things that never came

 C *
Shock and awful thing to make somebody think

         Am *
That they have to choose pushing for peace supporting the troops

    Em *
And either you're weak or you'll use brute force feed

      F
The truth is we say not as we do

  C *
We say anytime, anywhere, just show your teeth and strike the fear

      Am *
Of God wears camouflage, cries at night and drives a dodge

 Em *
Pick up the beat and stop hogging the feast

 F
That's no way to treat an enemy

 C *
Well mighty mighty appetite

 C *
We just eat 'em up and keep on driving

 Am *
Freedom can be freezin' take a picture from the pretty side

 Em *
Mind your manners wave your banners

 F
What a wonderful world that this angle can see

C         G          Am
But who needs to see what we've done?

F         G         C
Who needs please when we've got guns?

C         G          Am
Who needs keys when we've got clubs?

F         G         C
Who needs peace when we've gone above

C         G          Am
But beyond where we should have gone?

F         G         C
Beyond where we should have gone

C         G          Am
We went beyond where we should have gone

F         G         C
Beyond where we should have gone
