A Tension ss D Tension ss A E|| Tension ssit's all that I know A I got tension out in traffic D I got tension in my office A E A I got tension and it's everywhere that I go
(Spoken)
A E After the bad guy killed off all the underdeveloped characters F#m A The good guy put a bullet right through his head E The screenwriter stood up and told us that all the loose ends had been F#m tied, justice is irrelevant D Violent problems need violent solutions A E 'Cause in America we like our bad guys dead
It's called box office, baby
A D E A It's bigger than the damn Stones
(Spoken)
A E Well they roped off all of my problems and pointed their fingers at addiction F#m D A 'Cause they know if you're doin' the pointin' no one's lookin' at you E But you know this war on drugs it's funded by the Tobacco and Alcohol Commissions F#m D It's not what drugs you're strung out on they care about as much as whose A E You see people....people still love drugs D A D E A Y'all do anyway...I'm over it

Tension ssit's all that I know
I got tension in my classroom
I got tension in my courtroom
I got tension and it's everywhere that I go
(Spoken)
A E When rock and roll first came around the preachers all went crazy F#m D A But soon that wasn't enough to bring people in the door A E So now they jump on any scandal that they can to try and save me F#m D A E 'Cause they know I don't buy that crap about the Devil's music anymore A D Republicans E That's what scares people these days A D E A That and Democrats
(Chorus)
