[Verse]
Em         D             A
   Like a song I have to sing,

C               Em
I sing it for you.

          D              A
Like the words I have to bring,

    C
I'm bringing for you.
Em D A C Em D A
Em       D                 A
And in leather, lace, or chains,

    C         Em
We stake our claim,

    D            A
Revolution once again

C    Em  D
But I won't,

        A               C
I won't wear it on my sleeve.

       Em                 D
I can see through this expression

     A
And you know I don't believe.

     C
I'm too old to be told,

  D
Exactly who are you?

    Em      D            A      C
Tonight, tomorrow's too late.

Em      D              A        C   Em
And we love to wear a badge, a uniform,

        D             A
And we love to fly a flag.

C   Em D         A             C
But I won't let others live in hell,

       Em                  D         A              C
As we divide against each other and fight amongst ourselves.

     C                  D
Too set in our ways to try to rearrange,

     C                          D
Too right to be wrong, in this rebel song.

        Em                   G
Let the bells ring out

        Em                   G
Let the bells ring out

          Em         D        A             C
Is there nothing left? Is there, is there nothing,

         Em            D      A
is there nothing left

C
Is honesty what you want?
Em D A C Em D A A A C
Em     D              A        C       Em
A generation without name, ripped and torn,

           D                A
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain,

C        Em D
Nothing at all.

        A                 C
And if you can't help yourself,

     Em             D              A                C
Well take a look around you, when others need your time.

             Em      D        A     C
You say it's time to go, it's your time.

       C
Angry words won't stop the fight.

     D
Two wrongs won't make a right.

       C
A new heart is what I need,

         D
Oh God, make it bleed,

         Em
Is there nothing left?
Em
