Em
Drop dead

C
A bullet to my head

G                     B
Your words are like a gun in hand

Em                   C
You can't change the state of the nation

G                 B
We just need some motivation

Em
These eyes

C
Have seen no conviction

G                  B
Just lies and more contradiction

Em         C
So tell me what would you say

G            B
I'd say it's tiiiiimmmmmeee to
[Chorus]
Em      C
So am I still waiting

G                 B
For this world to stop hating?

Em           C
Can't find a good reason

G                  B
Can't find hope to believe in
[Bridge] Em G Em G B [Verse 2]
Em
Ignorance

C
And understanding

G                       B
We're the first ones to jump in line

Em                      C
Out of step for what we believe in

G                 B
But who's left to stop the bleeding?

Em
These eyes

C
Have seen no conviction

G                  B
Just lies and more contradiction

Em         C
So tell me what would you say

G            B
I'd say it's tiiiiimmmmmeee to
[Chorus]
Em      C
So am I still waiting

G                 B
For this world to stop hating?

Em           C
Can't find a good reason

G                  B
Can't find hope to believe
[Bridge]
Em   C     G       B
This can't last forever

Em   C     G           B
Time won't make things better

Em     C D Em
I feel so alone

      C   D  Em
Can't help myself

    C  D   Em
And no one knows
If this
   C
Is worthless

D
Tell me

What have we done

G               B
With a war that can't be won?

Em         C
This can't be real

G                           B
'Cause I don't know what to feel
[Chorus]
Em      C
So am I still waiting

G                 B
For this world to stop hating?

Can't find a good reason

G                  B
Can't find hope to believe

Em      C
So am I still waiting
