Am C F Am G It's in the air you breathe and it's also in the water Am C F Am G It's something you can't see, you've been warned of by your mothers Am C F Am G You've had enough deceit, You know enough to see Join the others Am C F Am G When you could hardly breathe, you were wondering why you bothered F G Am C And they gave us seven days to renounce our wicked ways F G Am C Too late to make amends because we both know how this ends
F G Am G
C F G C So do the right thing or do nothing. What will you do when they come for you? C F G C Or just do what is easier. What will you do when they come for you? C F G C That's what I read what I swear they said to me. Nine times out of ten they lied to me C F G G And after all they had the guts to say Son, no one will save you now Am F C G We want it, they got it. They claim we'll die without it Am F C G But something tells me they are wrong
F G
C F G C So what will you do when they call your name and you're not ready to go? C F G C Everyone will stare at you and tell you what you know C Em Am G That you're in too deep and you can't quite keep your secrets, one and all F G C Am We might just make it after all, on our own F G C C We might just make it after all F G C C But we had one foot on the gas and one foot in the grave C F G C Everyone was laughing when we said we had it made C F G G Everyone was laughing when we said we had it made
C C F G
F G Am C They gave us seven days to renounce our wicked ways F G Am C Too late to make amends becase we both know how this ends C F G C Started with six or seven, moved on to eight or nine. What will you do when they come
you?
C F G C Nobody seemed to notice, nobody seemed to mind. What will you do when they come for you? C F G C Little miss demissed can't miss like a detuned radio. I cannot believe you when you tell
what you know
C F G And nothing will be broken if your house is made of stone. But you will know as I do it C never be a home Am F C G We want it, they got it. They claim we'll die without it Am F C G But something tells me they are wrong
