Verse:
Em   C                G               D
    I say I've got nothing to live for like
Em Em C  G                                  D
                there's someone who does
Em   C                G             D
    I say I feel so betrayed like there's
Em Em C  G                      D
                someone that's safe to trust


C                        G                   D
And I'm not for inaction, but I am for despair.

Em C G D

              C                 G               D
May this resignation lead us to battle
    Em                    C
against forces we know will destroy us
G                           D
before they really know we're there.

Em                    G                              D                              C
I'm fighting for something between apocalypse and liberation.
Em                        G                              D                           C
I'm struggling for something between apathy and desperation.
Em                                   C                            G                         D
And just because I'm an anarchist doesn't mean that I won't burn a black flag
Em                                   C                  G                              D
while you're wishing for utopia, I just hope the cops don't search my paper bag.



Chorus:

Em          G                 D          C
Who-o-oa. Who-o-o-o-o-o-oa. Oi! Oi! Oi!
Em          G                 D          C
Who-o-oa. Who-o-o-o-o-o-oa. Oi! Oi! Oi!

Em       C           G             D
    You look out over the on-ramp and
Em Em C                  G        D
                all you can do is sigh.
Em       C                   G           D
    I can see that the interstate and the litter
Em Em C                   G        D
                 make you wanna die.

C                               G             D                 Em       C          G            D
But the way that the morning sun hits the gasoline rising over concrete;
C                                         G       D
well it just seems so beautiful to me. Yeah!

Em                   G                D                        C
You're fighting for a globe covered again in fields and forests.
Em                      G                                     D        C
I'm thinking of a world without bricks and it just seems so boring.
Em                  C                               G                           D
But keep your thumb out and we'll make Burlington by 7:30.
Em                  C                           G                               D
You wish the world was clean but I'm in love with the way it's dirty.

Em          G                 D          C
Who-o-oa. Who-o-o-o-o-o-oa. Oi! Oi! Oi!
Em          G                 D          C
Who-o-oa. Who-o-o-o-o-o-oa. Oi! Oi! Oi!

Em      C                G              D   
     He listens to a traffic report
Em Em C                          G                D
     about the jam on the way to the city.
Em        C         G            D
And it's only a couple of exits
Em Em  C                   G         D
   but it seems like a million miles to Philly.
C      G                       D
But I know that we'll make it
Em    C                      G          D
   to the punk house somehow.
C                                 G               D
And I know when we walk in the door
Em   C     G     D
it will be about
Em                        G                        D                  C
who can talk feminism the best to get into girls pants,
Em                                    G                             D                C
and who can quote Emma Goldman the most without having to dance.
Em                        C                                G  D
And singing those stupid protest songs.
Em                                  C                                        G                   D
He says  that music can change the world, but with lyrics like that, I'm so glad hes wrong.

Em          G                 D          C
Who-o-oa. Who-o-o-o-o-o-oa. Oi! Oi! Oi!
Em          G                 D          C
Who-o-oa. Who-o-o-o-o-o-oa. Oi! Oi! Oi!
