THE PATRIOT - The JB Conspiracy
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: voyage34
Tuning: Standard
Great song, great band. Can't find a tab or lyrics anywhere, so here's my best
shot. Post up any errors and I'll correct it, but I think this is pretty much it.
If you just want the chords I've put them over the tabs, you can play this song
with the really basic guitar chords (E, G, D etc) but it sounds better with bars.
The rhythm is standard ska, almost always with the strums on the 3rd, 4th and
7th beats of a bar divided into eight beats.

Lyrics:
Everybody has lost sight,
People are no longer treated right,
Too consumed with what we've got to gain,
Oblivious to it all.
And I see a bemused country,
Torn apart cos we fail to see,
Things of a higher notion,
Ideals that will set you free.
Well you know we won't believe it,
Don't you know that your pride won't change a thing.
Apathy will tear this country down,
Racist hordes elected in your town,
They say they're patriots but that's a lie,
Protecting their own country but they'd gladly see you die.
They call themselves the BNP,
The National Front is behind a political party,
Agenda's based on their racist views,
Believe the propaganda but you know you're gonna lose.
Well I see a bemused country, torn apart cos we fail to see,
Things of a higher notion, ideals that will set you free.
Well you know we won't believe it,
Don't you know that your pride won't change a thing.
Beware of people creeping in,
Under cover of legitimacy,
They say they have your best interests in mind,
But you're intolerant if you're not there.
I see a bemused country, torn apart cos we fail to see,
Things of a higher notion, ideals that will set you free.
Well you know we won't believe you anyway,
Don't you know that your pride won't change a thing,
You know we won't believe it,
Don't you know that your pride won't change,
Don't you know that your pride won't change a thing.
