Joey Cape – Tragic Vision (Guitar)

         F#m
In this faltering nation

      A
The future belongs

         D
To the children in school

         C#m
There's something wrong

       F#m
Sixth grader on crack

    A                        D
Handgun overflowing in his hands

          C#m
Now he is just further demand

F#m                 D
We search for the source

A               C#m
And still that child is left watching

F#m               D
Inhumanity, bloodshed

        A             D
As the tele-violence feeds his head

F#m     G#  A
Only if he knew

       D             C#m
The consequence of greed

   F#m      G#       A
A contious state of mind

D          C#m
T.V. is not reality

F#m                 A 
Never a victim the role model said

D              C#m
Bang bang, the bad guy is dead

F#m                   A
Always a rockstar on empty T.V.

            D                 C#m
The lesson complete, now the child has needs

    F#m               D
Of competition they bleed

     A            C#m
Oh beautiful for bills of green

  F#m                D
Nevermind spacious skies overhead

           A                     C#m
Bleed the earth and butter your bread

F#m     G#  A
Only if he knew

       D             C#m
The consequence of greed

   F#m      G#       A
A contious state of mind

D               C#m
What he see's is not reality

F#m         A        D          C#m
                    T.V. is not reality

F#m         A        D          C#m
                    T.V. is not reality
