Intro: Am, Em, F, C, Em7

 Am                      Em
The future teaches you to be alone

 F                          C
The present to be afraid and cold

F                           C                 G
So if I can shoot rabbits then I can shoot fascists

Am                Em
Bullets for your brain today

F                C
But we'll forget it all again

F
Monuments put from pen to paper

C                       G
Turns me into a gutless wonder.

Dm                       C                          G
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next

F                        C                          G
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next

G                G              G
Will be next Will be next Will be next.


 Am           Em
Gravity keeps my head down

 F             C
Or is it maybe shame

F                 C            G
At being so young and being so vain.


Am            Em
Holes in your head today

F                C
But I'm a pacifist

F                      C                   G
I've walked La Ramblas but not with real intent.


And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
Will be next Will be next Will be next


Dm                   C
And on the street tonight

           G     F              C                     G
An old man plays with newspaper cuttings of his glory days


And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
Will be next Will be next Will be next

Aaaaaaaah, aaaaaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aah-aah
Ah-ah, Ah-ah
