Intro: D#  C  A# 

D#               C   A# 
How you wanna live? 
             D               C     A# 
Can you conceive of a living wage? 
           G#          C  A#             G#                  C   A#       
Or does it all just sound like something somebody else would say? 
D#                       C   A# 
Even when they talk so calmly 
          D#                                       C       A# 
They say ’There’s only a couple of questions we’ve got to ask. 
              G#                 C    A# 
You know the pavement is always hungry 
           G#              
For those drops of your blood 
          C            A# 
For that knee in your back, oh 
A#                        G# 
Life is so incredibly long 
        A# 
Like a kiss on a bridge between two nervous-ass kids 
        C                         G#         
Terrified of doing everything wrong 
A#                                C    G#    
Fickle, belligerent, fully existent 
D#                   C  A#         D#                    C    A# 
And I don’t wanna talk to all the people in their pickup trucks 
      G#             C   A# 
Moving all their mouths 
           G#         C    A# 
To make it hurt so much 
D#                   C  A#          D#              C    A# 
You won’t get my blood in some apologetic stop-gap gush 
               G#        C  A#    G#        C   A# 
You’ll feel it all at once in a red, raw rush 
A#                
Overworked doctor is smoking in the doorway of the clinic 
      C                                 G# 
While protesters picket different perspectives of the same prison 
    A#    
The peace signs in pictures chucked up by the diminished 
       C                      G# 
Mean ’Nobody’s safe from the lawâ? 
       D#                  C   A# 
Cause they don’t give a fuck 
D#                         C    A#     D#        
They don’t give a fuck about us
