Mourning In Amerika chords and lyrics - RISE AGAINST

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]Stand by to switch on
We fire out all pistons
[F]We're singing along
But no one is listening
From [G]dusk until dawn
We stay up to carry [C]the flame
And when it's all said and done
In these alternate endings
When [F]nothing is love
But the stragglers and
empties
[G]We're sleeping it off
Just to wake up and start it again
[C][G]

[Verse 2]
[Am]So burn the statues to the ground
[F]Start to lay your weapons dow[C]n
Bound for glory on this [G]street
But there's a bridge up
[Am]overhead
Noise cancel,
drown the signal [F]out
Change channels, manufactured doubt
[C]When the only thing we'll
fight for every [G]day
Is a better seat on a crashing...
[F]Plain to see, but hard to breathe
[G]The streets are full of tumbleweeds

[Verse 3]
And now it's [C]morning [G]in
the streets of [F]Amerika
But [Dm]we don't go outs[F]ide an[G]ymore
[C]The rad[G]io blasts hys[F]teria
While [Dm]the television's sideways
[F]on [G]the floor
[C]

[Verse 4]
Under moonlit skies and surveillance
As we cheer [F]from the stands
in the stadium[Bb]s
[F]On a j[G]umbotron we all sing
[F]along to [C]escape[G][Am]
Once we were the lighthouse
To the [F]world's most desperate ships
But what we [C]became was
a towering flame
Leading [G]the moth right into it
Now we are [F]waking up to
[G]the phone lines cut

[Verse 5]
'Cause it's [C]morning [G]in
the streets of [F]Amerika
And [Dm]we don't go ou[F]tside an[G]ymore
[C]The radio blasts h[F]ysteria
While the [Dm]television's [F]sideways
[C]on [Am]the f[C]loor[Em]

[Verse 6]
With [C]a t[Dm]eleprompter in our f[Em]aces[F]
Yeah, we don't even know
what [G]we're say[Am]ing
Car that's slowly [G]crashing
And we can't look [Em]away
Parading [C]to the edge of
the [F]cliff now
We're trying to figure out
how [G]to get [Am]down
While the night is fast ap[G]proaching
Would we even [F]recognize our former
lives [G]in this artificial light?

[Verse 7]
[C]Morning in the streets of [F]Amerika
But [Dm]we don't go out
[F]sid[G]e anymore
[C]There's something
wrong with [F]the stereo
And the [Dm]television's [F]sideways
[G]We're mou[C]rning in [G]the streets
of [F]Amerika[C]
Mourning [G]in the streets of
[F]Amerika
[C]We're mourning [G]in the streets
of [F]Amerika[C]
Mourning [G]in the streets [F]of Amerika
