[Verse 1]
Em G C Blacken the sky and sharpen the axe Em G C Forever cursed to live unrelaxed Em F G Am We make no bones, a house is not a home G F C And a home is nowhere we can stay
[Verse 2]
Em G C Dodged the draft but can't dodge the war Em G C Forever cursed to live insecure Em F G Am The curtain drops, a gang of Gen X cops assembles G F C Trembling before our human nature
[Chorus 1]
Dm C It wasn't built for me Dm Am G It's your academy F C G Am But in my time, you taught me how to see G F C Each generation makes its own apology

[Verse 3]
Em G C Welcome back, my oldest friend Em G C Are you cursed to depart again? Em F G Am Your ways and means, eternally obscene G F C And always looking for obscenity and hatred
[Chorus 2]
Dm C It wasn't built for me Dm Am G It's your academy F C G Am But in my time, you taught me how to see G F C Each generation makes its own apology
