_ [C] _ _ [Em] _ _ [C] _ _ [A] _
_ _ [C] _ _ [Em] I [C] can't be [C#m] compromising in my thoughts no more.
_ [Em] I [C] can't let the times my [C#m] anger fills my heart.
[Em] I can't be [C] sad by [C#m] the new laws [C] to ask [Em] _
_ [C] my patience [C#m] with the world [C] and all.
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And all the politicians and their old promises.
And all the lies, deceit [C] and shame that [B] goes with it.
The [Em] working man pays everything for their mistakes.
_ [E] And will his life [C] do if there was to be [B] a war?
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _
So [A] they only get one [G] chance at [A] retaining it.
[D] And we only get one life at exchanging it.
_ We'll do what we have, [A] don't replace [D] it.
[A] Yeah, darling, I'm just [D] living it like a noose.
_ _ [E] _ _ _
_ I love my many clandestine parties to wear the holiday.
_ And just find a [C] shot for life most every [B] day.
[E] I still have no just how much further they can go.
_ They know the laws [C] are soft, but the chance [B] is low.
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _
So they [A] only get one [D] chance at [A] retaining [D] it.
And we only [C#] get one life at [A] exchanging it.
[D] And we'll do what we have, [A] don't replace it.
[D] _ [A] Yeah, darling, I'm just [G] living it like [D] a noose.
_ [E] _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ [C#m] _
[E] I'm just living it like a noose.

[Em] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ [G] The _ [Em] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] power that's yours, even in your heart of
A pair of fists lies declined the victims' blood that [E] I hate.
So now the truth knows, they're not worth my fate.
[F#] _ _ _
_ [A] Despite [D] their public [F#m] worries, we're in our [D] wellhead.
We [G] can't protect [F#m] ourselves against a [E] plan that's shared.
[E] We cannot warn each other of evil in our midst.
_ _ [B] _ [C] We cannot call them [B] just.
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[A] So they only get one [D] chance at [A] retaining it.
And we only get one [D] life at exchanging it. _
And we'll [A] do what we have, [A] don't replace it.
[D] _ Yeah, darling, [G] I'm just living it like [D] a _ noose.
