Electric President

Bbm
Stand and move and walk across the water.
C#
Peel the cover from the city.
G# F#
Watch its insides twitch and smoke and rotate endlessly.
Bbm
Sinking. Moving deep beneath the water.
C#
Lots of other worlds exist.

G#
Soon enough we�ll tear them open.
F#
Soon enough we�ll break them too.

Bbm
Swimming. Watching concrete eat the ocean.
C#
Metal fingers scrape the skies.
G# F#
The windows look like Christmas lights from out here.
Bbm
Floating. Counting clouds. They�re slowly fading.
C#
Blending in with cardboard skies.
G#
Soon we�ll manufacture replicas.
F#
It�s all replaceable.

C#
From the sky, the train tracks look like stitches.
Bbm
Like they�re holding the world together; like it�ll blow any minute.
G#
And I�ve got another thought I�ll keep to myself.
F#
Until the skeletons walk free. Until the make-up all comes off.
C#
There�s nothing new to discover, there�s nothing new to invent.
Bbm
There�s nothing new to think that hasn�t been thought of before.
G#
And there�s nothing to believe we haven�t already forgotten.
F#
There�s nothing left, there�s nothing new, there�s nothing�
N.C.
No, no, no, no.
C#
And I�ve got another dream I�ll keep to myself.
Bbm
Until the tyrants are dead and the patriots are swallowed whole.
G#
And I�ve got a bottle I can aim at the center,
Full of letters, as a kid, I�d always meant to send.
F#
We�d speak our minds and change the world.
We�d fix the past and pave the way.

C#
But now we�re fresh out of heroes; now we�ve run dry on hope.
Bbm
There are no saviors in technology: just quick fixes.
G#
And holes, within holes, within holes, within you.
F#
And a place to hang my head, and convince myself there is no difference.

C# Bbm G# F#
