| Am            | G             | F             | Dm            |
| Am            | G             | F             | Dm            |

[Verse 1]
Am            G                  F                    Dm
  Revolutions don't look pretty,   growing pains felt in the cities,
Am           G           F               Dm
  propaganda has us bickering amongst ourselves.
Am                     G
  Well, I believe that black lives matter
F                       Dm
  but I don't think all cops are bastards.
Am                            G
  There's wolves and sheep in every pasture,
        F                        Dm                 Am*****
need to weed out the predators, exile the masters.

[Chorus]
         F      E      Am*****
Tensions rising in the streets,
    F        E        Am*****
politicians: feel the heat.
        F        E          Am*****
Fair is fair and fair ain't here,
          F           E      Dm  Dm  E
change is free, don't buy the fear.
      E
Don't buy the [Interlude] fear.

| Am            | G             | F             | Dm            |
| Am            | G             | F             | Dm            |

[Verse 2]
Am               G
Get up stand up, it's time to move,
  F                               Dm
intolerance ain't tolerated, it's time to prove it.
  Am                       G
Divide and conquer, they'd split up the ranks,
F                    Dm
remain resilient, in union there is strength.
    Am                        G
The media's become pushers of dopamine,
        F                     Dm
so, the revolutions televised through live streams.
      Am                      G
Don't burn down the forest to get rid of the weeds,
  F*                                       Am*****
invest in communities, plant more seeds.

[Chorus]
         F      E      Am*****
Tensions rising in the streets,
    F        E        Am*****
politicians: feel the heat.
        F        E          Am*****
Fair is fair and fair ain't here,
          F           E       Dm    Dm    E
change is free, don't buy the fear.
      E       Am*     G*     F*
Don't buy the fear.
              Am*     G*     F*
Don't buy the fear.
              Am*     G*     F*
Don't buy the fear.
              Am*     G*     F*         F*    G*
Don't buy the fear.
