 Chords used:
----  x3, /----
Cigarette  fingers ember stain
 Incriminating notes on a paper chain
 Did you ever  get the
 feeling that you've been cheated?
 I wanna bust out
 I've not been defeated
 We're all strong  bones they hold no water
 Got the whiplash smile this gets harder
Time  has wound down and now we've been cached
 Because half measures are all half-assed and
how  did we ever end up this way
 and I don't know I'm in disarray
Cultivating  my ignorance--
didn't  we have some standards once?
I  hate you and your cowboy boots
 though we wanted clever we settled for stupid
Do  it always so indiscreet
 like a bad boyfriend he's a dirty little cheat
 It's a shallow  vicious state of mind
 like an angry  child getting dumped online
 And give  me back my photos will you
----  x4
  you fucking whore I'll kill you!
 (Don't believe  it) Don't believe a word
 (Don't believe)  Just keep on breathing
 (Don't believe)  cause pretty soon that
good  King George  will wake  up screaming
Our  soundtrack is a soul less thing
 some dull ache replace the sting
Rap  stars brag about shooting each other?
 Whatever happened to "brother brother"?
We  like thugs when they attack and
 We like crime when it's black-on-black and
Isn't  this you, cruel-hearted fake?
 And isn't this more than you can take?
 (Don't believe  it) Don't believe a word
 (Don't believe)  Just walk on by
 (Don't believe  it) cause this moment
 will pass and then  we
can all  get high yeah
 (Don't believe  it) Don't believe it
 (Don't believe)  Just keep on breathing
 (Don't believe)  cause pretty soon that
good  King George  will wake  up screaming
Wake  up screaming Ha  ha
Wake  up screaming
Yeahhh!  x4
 Round up all the big lynch pins
 Hope we don't get fooled again!
All  sensation makes no sense
 you got some insane confidence
 I can't find  myself I can't change the station
 in this corporate sell-out hillbilly nation
 Scandalize  now with such ease
 America give me back my keys
Sand  it blows a soldier squeeze
trigger  on fake enemies
 we're all  abroad and all alone
 till you  come home bring them home
 (Don't believe  it) Don't believe a word
 (Don't believe)  Just keep on breathing
 (Don't believe)  cause pretty soon that
good  King George  will wake  up screaming
 don't believe  a word
 don't believe  a word no!
 don't believe  a word
(hold)x6
  don't believe a word
