G G/D G/E G/D
Superman was killed in Dallas
G G/D G/E G/D
There's no love left in the palace
G G/D G/E G/D F D
Someone took the Beatle's lead guitar
G G/D G/E G/D
Have another Chevis Regal
G G/D G/E G/D
Your twelve years old and sex is legal
G G/D G/E G/D F D
Your parents don't know where or who you are
C G
Used to be the hero of the ball game
C G
Took the time to shake the loser's hand
C D Bm Em
Used to be that failure only meant you didn't try
C D walkdown to G
In a world where people gave a damn
G G/D G/E G/D
Great big wars in little places
G G/D G/E G/D
Look at all those frightened faces
G G/D G/E G/D F D
But don't come here we just ain't got the room
G G/D G/E G/D
Love thy neighbor's wife and daughter
G G/D G/E G/D
You cleanse your life with holy water
G G/D G/E G/D F D
Hey we don't need to bathe we've got perfume
C G
Used to be a knight in shining armor
C G
Didn't have to own a shiny car
(strum)
C D Bm Em
'Cuz dignity and courage were the measure of a man
C D G
And not the drugs he needs to hide his scars
(strum harder)
Bm
And can your teacher read
Bm
And does your preacher pray
F#m
And does your president have soul
G F#m
Have you heard a real good ethnic joke today
Bm
Mama took her speed
Bm
Daddy ran away
F#m
But you mustn't lose control
G
You see the kids are wild we just can't tame 'em
A
Do we have a right to blame 'em
(back to picking)
D D/C# D/B D/C#
We fed them all our indecision
D D/C# D/B D/C#
And raped their minds with television
D D/C# D/B D/C# C A
But what the hell they're too young to feel pain
G D
But I believe that love will save tomorrow
G D
I believe that truth will make us free
(strum)
G A F#m Bm
Someone tried to say it and we nailed him to a cross
G A (picking)D
I guess it's still the way it used to be
