Dept. of False Hope Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Bm]Welcome now, son,
To where the [A]work is never done
And [F#m]the hu[F#]ngry are seldom ever fed
[G]

[Verse 2]
The [Bm]department of false hope
Is [A]a proving ground for dopes
And they'll [D]grind your tiny bones
to make their [E]bread
[F#]

[Verse 3]
[G]
So hold your [D]head up high,
for[A]gotten [F#]man[C#][D][G]
Tomorrow [D]won't be made
[A]for you[F#][C#][D][G]
And everybody's [D]gonna try
to lend a [A]helping [F#]hand
For[C#5]got te[D]n ma[G]n,
there's [A]nothing more to do
[D]

[Verse 4]
[Bm]He crackled on the radio
Through bright [A]plumes of the sun
The [F#m]an nou[F#]ncer said the
age of faith was [G]dead

[Verse 5]
[G]
Though [Bm]the adolescent nation
Was [A]just looking for salvation
The [D]beast of reason reared
its [E]ugly head
[F#][G]

[Verse 6]
So hold your [D]head up high,
for[A]gotten [F#]man[D]
[G]Tomorrow's not for[D] me and[A] you
[F#][D][G]
And everybody's [D]gonna
try to lend a help[A]ing hand
[F#]Forgotte[D]n man,[G] there's nothi[A]ng more to

[Interlude 1]
do
[D][Bm][A]
[F#m][G]
[Bm][A]
[D][E][F#m]

[Verse 7]
From your [G]cradle of destruction
With the [A]poorest of instruction
And [Bm]nearest [A]sliver of [G]a tune
Oh, you [F#]managed somehow
to muddle [D]through

[Verse 8]
[G]So hold your hea[D]d up high,
forgot[A]ten [F#]man[D]
[G]Tomorrow's not for[D] me and you[A][F#][D]
[G]And everybody's gon[D]na try
to lend a help[A]ing hand
[F#]Forgotte[D]n man,[G]
there's [A]nothing more to [D]do[Bm][G]
There is [A]nothing more
