G [Verse] C We are here, we were there F Am G We are nearing people everywhere we go C People catching in their hands F Am G The ashes of the Marlboro man Am Em Burn them down, burn them down F C With our canteens pouring gasoline; It's never what they're saying G But why oh why they say it Am Em Burning down the billboards F C To the ground and not a sound G Will touch the ears For the sights to be gained C Will everlast us through the years Am Five o'clock rush hour traffic G Gazing upward at our magic F C Calvin Klein went down in flames G C Authorities aren't asking for the names Am Miller Lite was burning bright G Illuminating our fearless night F C And victory was once again G C Ours until the very end Am Em Burn them down, burn them down F C With our canteens pouring gasoline; It's never what they're saying G But why oh why they say it Am Em Burning down the billboards F C To the ground and not a sound G Will touch the ears For the sights to be gained C Will everlast us through the years Am Em Burning down the billboards F C To the ground and not a sound G Will touch the ears For the sights to be gained C Will everlast us through the years
