Open Door Policy

D
The world is dying
                A
Shit is getting serious
D
Everybody's lying
                     A
It's impossible to tell the truth
D
It's worry, worry
D
Worry, worry
D
Worry, worry
D
Worry, worry
 A
All the time
 D
That don't solve anything
          A
I never used to be the worrying type

[Chorus 1]
         G           D
But I'm not exactly sure
       A              D
What I'm supposed to say
          G            D
When it feels like Armageddon
        A           D
Is a stone's throw away
       G         D           A   
And everybody voted for the 
        D
greedy in charge
         G         D
Well if this is a fight
        A      D
Then maybe we lost
      G                Em
But, me I'm a pacifist
                 A
Eternal optimist

I'll keep on singing
                    D
Stating the obvious

[Verse 2]
D
Simple subject matter
                  A
Over-analysing a cup of tea
  D
Where did the milk come from?
                A
I bet it was a tragedy
  D
There's Fluoride in the water
                            A
It's blurring the vision of my third
 eye
 D                            A
But still I put the kettle on

What a time to be alive

[Chorus 2]
         G         D
And I'm not even sure
         A         D
If the facts are true
             G          D         
Cause I'm constantly bombarded by 
     A             D
so many points of view
    G          D     A        D
And, I am my own propaganda machine
     G              D       
I believe what I believe I am 
    A             D
supposed to believe
Continúa después del anuncio
      G                      Em
And I'll believe in anything

So show me everything
       A
I'm dancing like a puppet
Not knowing who is pulling the 
       D
strings

[Verse 3]
       D
Dark money and big data
And the mass manipulation of the 
  A
human race
    D
Advertising's Frankenstein
                         A
Knows me better than I know myself
      D
Every website that I visit
      D
Every bit of porn I watch
            A
And every shred of news I read
       D
They analyse, hypothesise
      D
Then use it as a weapon
A
To brainwash me

[Chorus 3]
        G               D
And now I'm almost convinced
       A              D
That all the news is fake
                G                  
But I've been staring at the screen
      D
 so much
      A               D
That I fucked up my neck
     G        D        A       D
And, I am my own propaganda machine
     G               D
I believe what my computer
   A            D
Wants me to believe
 G                        Em
Oh, I sit and stare at it

Think I'm above that shit
 A
Hook, line and sinker
                      D
Fell for the internet

[Verse 4]
 D
It was always gonna happen
                              A
The robots are coming now to take 
our jobs
 D
3D printers printing 3D printers
 A
3D printers printing jails and guns
  D
Well this car needs a driver
                        A
And these brains need reality
 D
Not just a phone strapped to your 
face
        A
While immersing yourself
       A
In a world of make-believe

[Chorus 4]
           G              D
But I've kind of come accustomed
          A   D
To the, 360 view
         G              D
Because it's almost realistic
          A        D
And kind of believable
     G       D               A   
And, I am content as long as I am
      D
 entertained
        G           D           A
And walking off a cliff is one 
          D
hell of a game
      G                    Em
So, I'll put my headset on

Say "See you later folks"
  A
I can't even hear you while you're
A                   D
Stating the obvious

[Verse 5]
D
But what is life if not
                          A
A brilliant barricade of obstacles
        D
I'll carry a stranger's bag down the
 stairs
        A
But I can't carry the weight of the 
world
           D
And so I watch the flowers grow
        D
And I listen for the beauty
         A
As it shines from in-between the 
gaps
            D
There's a light at the end of the 
tunnel my love
 A
So don't you ever give up

[Chorus 5]
             G                  D
And they've discovered seven planets
     A             D
Orbiting a distant sun
   G                   D
They are light years away
     A                D
But they remind us of home
    G              D
They remind us to hope
       A            D
They remind us to dream
             G          D
And all the wonderful things
         A           D
Human-beings can achieve
      G
So, quit your worrying
 Em
Start your partying
A
One door is closing
                           D
And another one is opening
