Boot Stamping On A Human Face Forever

[Dm] [Bb] [Dm] [Bb] [Dm] [Gm] [F] [A]

[Dm]Drop dead, it doesn’t [Bb]matter she said   [Dm]
It only hurts when I [Bb]laugh she said   [Dm]
Sometimes it’s [Gm]never a crime
To s[F]pend the day in b[A]ed    [Dm]
She made certain that the c[Bb]urtains were red    [Dm]
To dream better by the l[Bb]ight they would shed   [Dm]
She leaned back, [Gm]tilted her head
And [F]this is what she s[A]aid

[D5]You can’t [F#5]win; t[B5]hink it [A5]over [G5]aga[A5]in
[D5]I can’t [F#5]wiiii[B5]in; look at the tr[A5]ouble [G5]I’m [A5]in
[D5]We can’t [F#5]win a[B5]nd we’re st[A5]uck here [G5]togethe[A5]r
[D5]Yeah, I h[G5]ope it will l[F5]ast [C5]forev[A5]er

[Dm]Don’t ever dare to h[Bb]ope he said  [Dm]
So I’m never let d[Bb]own too bad    [Dm]
I know there’s n[Gm]owhere to go
So I’ll j[F]ust stay here, inst[A]ead   [Dm]
He knew better than to p[Bb]ull at a thread     [Dm]
They unravel like the th[Bb]oughts in his head  [Dm]
He looked out; it [Gm]filled him with dread
And [F]this is what he [A]said…

[D5]You can’t [F#5]win; t[B5]hink it [A5]over [G5]aga[A5]in
[D5]I can’t [F#5]wiiii[B5]in; look at the tr[A5]ouble [G5]I’m [A5]in
[D5]We can’t [F#5]win a[B5]nd we’re st[A5]uck here [G5]togethe[A5]r
[D5]Yeah, I h[G5]ope it will l[F5]ast [C5]forev[A5]er

[Dm]With good books and l[Bb]ooks on their side [Dm]
And hearts bursting with [Bb]national pride  [Dm]
They sang songs and went al[Gm]ong for the ride
And the [F]other side c[A]omplied
They said[Dm], Hey, man, where do [Bb]you reside? [Dm]
And could it be mother’s su[Bb]perior lied?   [Dm]
And is it possible too [Gm]many have died?
It’s only [F]natural to re[A]ply

[D5]You can’t [F#5]win; t[B5]hink it [A5]over [G5]aga[A5]in
[D5]I can’t [F#5]wiiii[B5]in; look at the tr[A5]ouble [G5]I’m [A5]in
[D5]We can’t [F#5]win a[B5]nd we’re st[A5]uck here [G5]togethe[A5]r
[D5]Yeah, I h[G5]ope it will l[F5]ast [C5]forev[A5]er
