[Intro] 
D riff

[Verse 1]
[D Riff]                     
Dear mother,
                            
This is just survival.
                    Bm            A            
Cannot promise your children everything,
              Bm              A                    
But you would lie so they can sleep tonight.
[D Riff]                                                  
Defeat tasted nothing like you said.
                   Bm                  A             
Still 22 days left till the end of the world.
   Bm         A            Em                
My legacy was making you a man
                          G                   
For a justice I could not change.
                         Em               
This is one voice not to forget;
                                G       
"Fight every fight like you can win;
                   Em              
An iron fisted champion,
        G           D                    
An iron willed fuck up."

[Chorus]
    G                   D                                         
Can anybody tell me why God won't speak to me?   
    A                           Bm               A                
Why Jesus never called on me to part the fucking seas?  
    G                    D                
Why death is easier than living? 
                  A               
You can be almost anything 
            Bm              A             
When you're on your fucking knees.
    G                    
Not today,
       D              
Not my son,
       A                 
Not my family,
          Bm               A                  
Not while walking is still honest,
        G                   D        
And you haven't given up on me.

Bm  A  G    Bm  A 

[Verse 2]
[D Riff]                     
Dear shithead,
                                   
This isn't happening; 
    Bm            A               
The sky is really falling,
    Bm                  A            
The paint's all made of lead,
[D Riff]                                        
There's asbestos in the walls,
                                                      
Hell's come over to rip off the doors
       Bm         A           Bm                          
To the priveleged mansion.
   A                    Em              
Do you want to love and feel it?
                           G             
You can look but you can't taste it.
                               Em           
You can reach but you'll never have it.
         G                    
We are untouchable;
                            D       
Untouchable is something to be.

[Chorus]
    G                   D                                         
Can anybody tell me why God won't speak to me?   
    A                           Bm               A                
Why Jesus never called on me to part the fucking seas?  
    G                    D                
Why death is easier than living? 
                  A               
You can be almost anything 
            Bm              A             
When you're on your fucking knees.
    G                    
Not today,
       D              
Not my son,
       A                 
Not my family,

[Outro]
          Bm               A                  
Not while walking is still honest,
        G                   D        
And you haven't given up on me.
        Bm      A           G          
And you haven't given up on me,
        Bm      A         D              
And you haven't forgotten me...
