[Intro] Am  C/B  C/G  C/B

[Primeira Parte]

Am                    C/B       C/G
Stop asking musicians what they think
                                      C/B    Am
He said softly as he poured himself a second drink
                       C/B          C/G        C/B
And outside, the world slipped over the brink
Am                               C/B   C/G
We all thought we had nothing to lose
                                           C/B
That we could trust in crossed fingers and horseshoes
Am                                 C/B            C/G
That everything would work out, no matter what we choose

[Pré-Refrão]

G                       C/G      F
The first time it was a tragedy, the second time was a farce
G            C/G                  F
Outside it's nineteen-thirtythree so I'm hitting the bar
 
[Refrão]

            C/G               G
But I don't know what's going on anymore
          Am
The world outside is burning with a brand new light
    F
But it isn't one that makes me feel warm
G                  C                               F
Don't go mistaking your house burning down for the dawn
G                  C                               F
Don't go mistaking your house burning down for the dawn
 
[Segunda Parte]

Am                                           C/B
If I was from the greatest generation I'd be pissed
C/G                                  C/B
Surveying the world slipping back to this
Am                                 C/B         C/G      C/B
I'd be screaming at my grand kids: "We already did this"
Am                      C/B
Be suspicious of simple answers
C/G                                  C/B
That shit's for fascists and maybe teenagers
Am                             C/B           C/G
You can't fix the world if all you have is a hammer
 
[Pré-Refrão]

G                       C/G      F
The first time it was a tragedy, the second time was a farce
G            C/G                  F
Outside it's nineteen-thirtythree so I'm hitting the bar

[Refrão]

            C/G               G
But I don't know what's going on anymore
          Am
The world outside is burning with a brand new light
    F
But it isn't one that makes me feel warm
G                  C                               F
Don't go mistaking your house burning down for the dawn
G                  C                               F
Don't go mistaking your house burning down for the dawn
        Am   C/B   C/G   C/B
For the daaaaaawwwwwwwn

[Ponte]

G          C
Aren't you ashamed of this?
F
I surely hope that you are
G            C          F
We live in a society that's maybe heading for Mars
G             C                         F
But down here we still have a shower of bastards taking charge
G            C                    F
Outside it's nineteen-thirtythree so I'm hitting the bar

Don't go mistaking your house burning down for the dawn
