Intro:AmCD(2x)VERSEAm
All we are is entertainment
caught up in our own derangement
CDmAm
Tell us what to say and what to do
Am
All we are are pretty faces,
picture perfect bottled rage
CDmAm
Packaged, synthesized versions of you
FDmAmE
We've all made petty fortunes but we can't afford a life
FGAm
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms
FDmAmE
They all scream California and it's toppling empire
FGAm
But can't you see the end is coming soon?
INTERLUDE: AmCDmVERSE:Am
Come one, come all, the new sensations
guarantees then obligations
CDmAm
Spotlights follow every single move
Am
Basking here on ten foot stages,
pouty lips and oh so jaded
CDmAm
All as if we have something to prove
CHORUSFDmAmE
Despite these petty fortunes we still can't afford a life
FGAm
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms
FDmAmE
They all scream California and it's toppling empire
FG
But can't you see the end is near?
BRIDGE 1AmF7M (For the transition just put your pinky on D 4th
(relative to the Capo, it's D 3rd))
BRIDGE 2GDm
And if we cared at all about this unknown plight
FG5Ab5Am
Then we'd do something more to finally make this right
BRIDGE III (3/4 time, on the first quarter note you A
string is played, on the last two quarters, play the G
and the H string twice. Also, play staccato for more
intense 3/4 feeling)
Am
Is this only entertainment? Pull the curtains, places please
CDm/AAm
We learned to sing and dance and cry on cue
Am
But this is more than entertainment in a world so sick with pain
CDm/AAm
This is the only thing that's real or true
ChorusFDmAmE
We've all made petty fortunes but we can't afford a life
FGAm
Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms
FDmAmE
They all scream bloody murder over graves already dug
FG
But can't you see the end?
