Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Bbaug]I'm sick and [D]tired of politicia[G]ns
[C#]With all their phony resol[F#m]utions
[B]An d their unworkable solu[Em]tions
[A]To all this fighting and con[D]fusion
I'm [Bbaug]sick and ti[D]red of reli[G]gion
[C#]They try to lock us in a [F#m]prison
[B]With all that creepy super[Em]stition
[A]That goes beyond our
sense of [D]reason
[Bbaug]That's why pe[D]ople get hi[G]gh
[C#]Just to get [F#m]by
[B]If you wanna know [Em]why
[A]Okay, I'll tell you [D]why
They've [Bbaug]had enoug[D]h
of this [G]nonsense
[C#]An d never think about the c[F#m]onsequence
[B]So I guess that it was [Em]answered
[A]People wanna get [D]high
[G]People [A]wanna get hig[D]h[Bbaug]
[D]Everybody's goi[G]ng insane
[C#]But they're just trying to e[F#m]ase the pain
[B]Hoping it won't come [Em]back again
[A]It's storming in like a [D]hurricane
[Bbaug]An d everywhere it's all le[D]adin[G]g to
[C#]We gotta think about m[F#m]e and you,
[B]and what the world is [Em]coming to
Some[A]times it's all [D]too much
That's why people get [G]high,
[C#]just to get [F#m]by
[B]An d if you wanna stay [Em]quiet, [A]come here
I'll tell you [D]why
They try to find some [G]chances
[C#]Just to avoid the hell they're [F#m]scared of
[B]I mean their world a little b[Em]righter
[A]That's why people get [D]high[G]
[A]That's why people get [D]high
[Bbaug]There is no point in jus[D]t wor[G]king
[C#]Just to try to earn a [F#m]living
[B]We're slow but safe,
not that much [Em]giving
[A]We need a reason to keep [D]living
[Bbaug]It's too late[F#] for revo[G]lution
[C#]Just leave it up to evol[F#m]ution
[B]To come up with the right [Em]solution
[A]To all this fighting and con[D]fusion
That's why people get [G]high
[C#]Just to get [F#m]by
An[B]d if you're wondering w[Em]hy,
[A]I'll give it one more [D]try
We've had enough of this [G]nonsense,
[C#]never think about the cons[F#m]equences
[B]So let me tell you what one [Em]senses,
[A]people wanna get by[D]
That's why they wanna get [G]out of it,
[C#]there's suddenly no [F#m]doubt of it
[B]And when you stop and think [Em]about it
[A]People wanna get hig[D]h[G][A][D][G][A][D]
[G][A][D][G][A][D][G][A][D][G][A]
[D][G][A][D]
I [G]don't want to give [A]up,
I don't want to give [D]up
