They sing "[C]Who
will save us[G] now?
It's our life but
we [Am]don't want to live
it" We [C]want to be
told[G] now by something
or something who's
[Am]better than us
Who we [C]know
we can trust
Who'll [D]always
protect us but [Am]keep
us scared to death so
we [C]never ask questions
Who'll [D]dictate the
consequen[Am]ces of our actions
and [C]give us peace of mind
about our [C]miserable lives
Con[D]fined and content
All we want is
a place we can [Em]hide[G]  [D]    [C]      [Em]         [G]           [D]             [C]

[Em]So we've always
[G]fought our wars
for [D]what we're told
is worth [C]dying for
[Em]Land and love and
[G]god and wealth
but [D]men in charge
pro[C]tect themselves
[Em]You can [G]rest as[D]sured
that it's the
[Em]young[G] and the [D]poor
who've fought [C]all them
Our wars [Em]led to
[G]death by [D]men[C] who
they [Em]chose[G] and [D]hoped
would pro[C]tect them

and "[C]Who will save
us[G] now? It's our
life but we [Am]don't
want to live it"
And [C]all you'll get
is[G] down because the
people you elect to
pro[Am]tect your best interests
will [C]just protect themselves
and [D]all their investments
and [Am]even the few with the
[C]best of intentions will
[D]just push their views
what [Am]they think is right
for you and [C]everyone
else You can't think
for yourself because
[D]you've chosen to let
someone else do it for [Em]you[G]  [D]    [C]      [Em]         [G]           [D]             [C]

[Em]So we're left to
[G]drift between
our [D]waking life and
[C]all of our dreams
Re[Em]ality is
[G]relative and [D]all
that's all the
[C]advice I'll give
[Em]Life and [G]death are [D]hard
[C]  They're such[Em] strange[G]
and [D]complicated [C]issues
So [Em]listen and [G]listen
[D]well[C] for [Em]insight[G]
but [D]no one knows
what's [C]right for you

"[C]Who will save us[G] now? It's
a wrong and ir[Am]relevant question
Because [C]we figure it[G] out
with the people who love us
Who [Am]call us half brothers
for [C]lessons we've learned
for our [D]fathers and mothers
not [Am]looking for someone
to [C]find our solutions
[D]Fight all our battles
or [Am]show us what truth is
It's by [C]working hard to
find our own peace of mind
[D]Living and learning until we
know what's right for our[Em] lives[G]  [D]    [C]      [Em]         [G]           [D]             [C]
