Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Anc[G]hor[C]men spike their blood,
[G]wear masks of mud
Cucumbers [C]cut to fit their eye[F]s
And so [C]no one would know
[G]how tired they've grown
Of [C]talking and [G]telling their [C]lies

[Verse 2]
While [C]your TV's change stations,
scroll [G]messages
Victims and [C]Christians both
drinking [F]blood
And they'll pray [C]for
the destruction of all [G]hatred
More often, just [C]those [G]with hate
[C]for us

[Verse 3]
'Cause it hurts [C]when you discover
one's [G]worse and one's better
To suf[C]fer or cause others [F]to
And you can [C]live by your conscience,
[G]now guilt is a concept
You're [C]no longer sub[G]scribing [C]to

[Verse 4]
There's [F]a virgin in my [Fm]bed
And she's [C]taking [G]off [C]her dress
And [F]I'm not sure what [C]I
am gonna do
[G]

[Verse 5]
There's [F]a song stuck in my [Fm]head
[G]And [Ddim]I can 't[C] help si[G]nging it[C]
[F]Oh, how I hope [C]my singing
pleases [G]you
'Cause this is not [Am]who I've become but what [G]you make me into
[C]

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][C]
[Gsus4][C][Am][G]

[Verse 6]
Oh, we got [C]no health insurance,
no cel[G]lular service
No [C]disease, they can't [F]cure
But we need more [C]money to burn
So each per[G]son must learn [C]the dollar
amoun[G]t they a[C]re worth

[Verse 7]
And [C]those pills make me dizzy
forget[G]ting my body
[C]I watch as it walks [F]away
And I just keep [C]drinking the poison
[G]and smoking the cartons
[C]A pack and [G]a half [C]a day

[Verse 8]
So when [C]time comes to claim me
[G]My friends and my family [C]will gather
around [F]my grave
And they'll [C]believe that they knew me
And [G]loved me and missed me,
and [C]all call [G]me by [C]my [G]name[C]

[Verse 9]
So [F]imagine what you [Fm]want[Gsus4]
And [Fm]then [C]hold on [G]to that [C]thought
'Cause [F]that's as close
as [C]it will ever come
[G]

[Verse 10]
And be[F]lieve you're where you [Fm]are
Keep [C]acting [G]out the [C]part
But at the [F]end of the day,
[C]the trees all get [G]wheeled away
And you'll be [Am]standing alone in [G]a blank,
blank space
[C]

[Verse 11]
So [F]believe you're who [Fm]you are
[Ddim]and stay[Fm] in [C]character[G]
[C]But at the end[F] of the play,
the [C]audience walks [G]away
And I'll be shiv[Am]ering cold
[A]on [G]a well lit stage
[C]
