Against Me! - "Burn"
Intro: F#
F#
Beautiful to live in poverty
D
Just to spite what they're selling
F#
Take a thousand hits to prove the rest and I'll move in
D
Millimeters still won't mean shit against well-done subversion
F#
Fathers of invention will one day turn in their graves
D
When their own sons and daughters
E
Manifest destiny into a lesson to others
D
Sent away my crippled, let the old ones categorize their deathcamps, they're all dead
[Refrão]
D
It'll burn burn burn
Like they did to the Anarchists at their stakes
E
And it'll burn burn burn
Like the histories they stole from us
F#
One day patriotic thugs will dance to songs of justice
E D
And cringe, and rack guns of shame (3x)
[Próxima Parte]
F#
Well it may take a team of well-rounded hoodlums
D
In full riot gear to unrest objection
F#
A well-controlled media to pick out our terrorists
D
When beaurocrats start dying from cancer
F#
There are already businessmen who'll market bottled water
D
And purified aerosol solution, guess who's their target
E
Seven approaching a measure off the map
D
And you'll see me dance in the street once again
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
D
And it'll burn burn burn like they did to the Anarchists
E
And it'll burn burn burn like the histories they stole from us
F#
One day patriotic thugs will dance to songs of justice
D E
And give apologies for immeasurably acted perfection
[Refrão] (repetir)
