Wishing wells
Fm             F#
  Are fine in fairy tales
                            C#    
But they've got no business here
Fm             F#
  Where evil's very real

And children are known
   G#   Bbm  G#/C 
To just disappear

G#     C#   
Magic spells
Fm               F#
  Still hold no currency
                       C#    
Where people are lining up
Fm             F#
  To sell their dignity
                  G#
When reality's a show
        Bbm           G#/C
They'll crawl through mud

I fear sometimes
                       Bbm  
We ain't got a hope in hell
G#            F#                    Bbm
  I've half a mind to hang the next fool
           G#
To wish me well
           C#   
To wish me well


---(repete a sequência de cifras da primeira parte)----

It comes as no surprise
All that rises to the top
Before our very eyes
With each generation expectation drops

I feel sometimes
We ain't got a hope in hell
I've a half a mind to hang the next fool
To wish me well
To wish me well

Tell me when
Fm              F#
  When will the truth prevail
                       C#
To clear away all the smug     
Fm            F#
 and smirking juveniles
                  G#
And save us from all
    Bbm            G#/C
The blood thirsty thugs 
   
  G#       F#
I feel sometimes....
