LYRICS (may not be totally accurate):
I spit my faith on the city pavement&8232;
To keep a smile&8232;
I bought my legs from the US Government
To keep me in line&8232;

We are the ones that keep you down
&8232;We are the ones that war[C]m the ground
&8232;While our ar[E]ms surround
&8232;
I filled my head with another replacement

To keep me high
&8232;I shot my soul when you wanted to take it

Your worst ain't mine
&8232;We are the ones that keep you high
&8232;We are the ones that warm the sky

And you're burning bright
Ooh
&8232;She's my river of sunshine she's my girl

(She's my girl)
She can save the US and save the world
(Save the world)
&8232;She's alright I'll be fine

There's no US save your mind
&8232;Save your mind
&8232;
I'll give you nothing if you're just gonna waste it
&8232;But that's alright

I'll give you love if you wanting the taste that&8232;
That leaves it behind&8232;

We are the ones that keep you high
&8232;We are the ones that burn your pride

And you're burning bright
&8232;
Ooh

&8232;I've been waiting for the sun to come
&8232;Lead me through the gates of Rome
You're gonna know they were never
&8232;Never yours to kill
(x2)
I've been waiting for the sun to come&8232;
Surely I must be undone
You're gonna know they were never
&8232;Never yours to kill
Am (mix in some hammers to Asus4)
