E         B       A       E
Yeah, the room is closing in

The air is getting thicker

     B        A     E      B  A
It's hard for me to breathe

E      B         A     E
All the writing's on the wall

    B    A       E
Yet we refuse to read it

      B      A      E
Heads buried in the sand

We've come down a road to places uncharted

It's our little world, it's time to get started

A                     A
Short-sighted men with eyes on their pockets

The next generation is watching the clock wind down

E       B       A      E
As the slaughterhouses hum

     B       A           E
Stockholders count their profits

      B        A       E  B  A
While blocking out the sun

E       B      A          E
All the oceans brown with foam

    B     A      E
The polar ice is melting

      B       A       E
Watch forests as they fall
[Chorus]
Emaj7               Emaj7
There's no one else coming to save us

E7                   E7
Why are the children always the bravest?

 A                        A
Stealing their dreams one day at a time

  Am                Am
A future betrayal denying the science

E      B        A           E
Every street is choked with cars

Poor Mother Earth is ravaged

    B    A        E
And disappearing stars
[Chorus]
Emaj7                 Emaj7
Left to ourselves and our own devices

E7                  E7
Who can we trust to make the right choices?

    A                    A
Maintain status quo, the House and the Senate

Am                Am
We leave behind a dead, dying planet
