[F] Soldiers, [Bb] workers, slaves and farmers, [F] nurses, queens [G] and drunk

[Abm] [B]
[E]
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
A [G]
[E] million streets and it's like a million drums
The lady's speaking in a new language
The crowd is clapping and the band is packed
The government's over it and the bitches get back
So take a beat from the beat, it sounds so loud
The bell clunk and 200's on, don't you [G] laugh at the screaming
[B] So let me [E] sleep, hey yeah yeah
[G] Stop [B] laughing at [Abm] us, [E] and we'll [Bm] crawl down [Em] with
[B] [E] you
What's that?
[Em] Wearing [E]
[A] [E]
the war hood but not the regional crown
I'm singing to say hey, it's going down
The government's fighting but no friend will be paid
Fireworks straight down the middle of the alley
Listen to me, we're the youngest people, [Bm] boys
When [E] the world's on the edge, there's still a [Em] death for me
[G] So take a beat from the beat, it [B] sounds so loud
The [E] lady's speaking in a new language
[A] [G] The crowd is [B] clapping and [Abm] the band is [Gb] packed
The bell [Bm] clunk and 200's on, don't you laugh [Em] at the screaming
So take a beat from the beat, [E] it sounds so loud
So [G]
[Dm] you're the world's [Bb] safest force
[B] Versus me and [G] Santa
[B] Please [E] save me from my [Bb] head to [Em] neck
[B] [F] It's my [B] [E]
[Em]
business of Frank Spielberg
[G] [Em] There's a storm of gorgeous preaching girls
I'm crumbling in my tracks, escaping through a pillar
So [G] let me sleep, hey [Gb] yeah [B]
yeah
[E] [G] Stop [Abm] laughing at us, and [A] [C] we'll crawl
All [Bm] [Gb] as [Em] lovers will be
[Bm] All [C] as widows will [Em] weep
