[C#] [A]
[E] [B]
[C#] [A]
[E] [B]
[C#] Let's [Am] stop this talk of [E] privilege, cause the songs that we sing [B] are as much a product of our [C#] privilege as
the [Am] clothes on my back, or [E] the phone call I made [B] to my mom last [C#] night.
And let's [A] stop this talk of [E] action, cause action comes [B] easy in some moments just before that [C#] are hard,
when I've got to get [A] my voice and my fist on [E] the same page [B] as my heart.
That's [A] my heart.
[C#] And [Dm] let's stop this talk of them, [E] because the things we find [B] deplorable in politicians, [F#] CEOs, and cops
are the [B] same [A] things that'll tear [E] ourselves apart.
[B]
[C#m] [D] And let's stop this talk [Am] of words, [E] because words like [B] dishonesty, selflessness, and [A#m] laziness, and greed
aren't as [C#m] distant [A] to us [E] as we'd like [B] to believe.
To [A] believe.
[E] [B] So please, the next [A] time you're smashing the stake, [B] don't go breaking my heart, [E] but
that [B] when you pick up the [A] pieces, the only thing left [E] will be the same asking,
well, what's that?
Made of [B] every [A] revolution that [B] I've ever known,
to [E] make me believe every faith [B] in humanity, and [A] the same every [B] breath of hot air.
[Dm]
[F#] And [A] they say that the beauty's [B] in [G#m] the streets,
[F#] but [A] when I look around, it would seem more [B] like the [G#m] feet.
[F#] And I'm [A] afraid that [E] this fight that we're [B] all on up here
will [F#m] leave us the same [A] as that would be [B] opposed.
[E]
So [B] please, the next [A] time you're smashing the [B] stake, don't go breaking my [E] heart,
but I know that [B] we can pick up the pieces [A] and build something [B] new, something different.
[E]
It's not like [B] every [A] revolution [B] that I've ever known
that can make [E] me believe in every faith in [B] humanity,
and [A] we'll all be the [B] breath of damp air.
