Am C D (x2) [Verse]

Am
All we are is entertainment

caught up in our own derangement

C               Dm              Am
Tell us what to say and what to do

Am
All we are are pretty faces,

picture perfect bottled rage

C               Dm                Am
Packaged, synthesized versions of you

[Chorus]

F                    Dm                    Am       E
We've all made petty fortunes but we can't afford a life

   F                 G               Am                 
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms

     F              Dm              Am         E
They all scream California and it's toppling empire

              F          G          Am
But can't you see the end is coming soon?

[Interlude] Am C Dm [Verse]

     Am
Come one, come all, the new sensations

guarantees then obligations

C                 Dm           Am
Spotlights follow every single move

Am
Basking here on ten foot stages,

pouty lips and oh so jaded

C            Dm                Am
All as if we have something to prove

[Chorus]

F                   Dm                Am             E
Despite these petty fortunes we still can't afford a life

    F                G               Am       
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms

     F              Dm              Am       E
They all scream California and it's toppling empire

              F              G       
But can't you see the end is near?

[Bridge 1]

Am F7M (For the transition just put your pinky on D 4th
(relative to the Capo, it's D 3rd))

[Bridge 2]

          G                       Dm
And if we cared at all about this unknown plight

             F                         G5   G#5  Am
Then we'd do something more to finally make this right

[Bridge 3] (3/4 time, on the first quarter note you A string is played, on the last two quarters, play the G and the H string twice. Also, play staccato for more intense 3/4 feeling)

Am
Is this only entertainment? Pull the curtains, places please

   C                   Dm/A             Am
We learned to sing and dance and cry on cue

    Am
But this is more than entertainment in a world so sick with pain

     C           Dm/A                 Am
This is the only thing that's real or true

[Chorus]

      F              Dm              Am             E
We've all made petty fortunes but we can't afford a life

   F                 G               Am
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms

     F                 Dm          Am             E
They all scream bloody murder over graves already dug

    F                 G
But can't you see the end?
