This is a song off the latest record
 "Devour".
I am pretty sure about most of the 
chords
except for the first one in the 
chorus...thought
it to be either Am or F but might as
 well
be something entirely different. If 
you have
an idea or any feedback, please 
leave a comment :-)

tuning: standard, no capo
Chords used:
C, F, G, Am, Dm


[Intro]
C (simply vary using the b string in
 C-formation and then on third 
thread, and the e-string)


[Verse 1]
            C
We were the Reagan kids
      F            G          
Our heroes didn't work like our 
    C
daddies did
       F              G       
They dazzled us with TV through 
    C
sleepy lids
              G
We followed hulking maniacs to 
prozac nation
                 F                 
"You can be anything, just get your
      (G)
 education"

                C
We were good Christian kids
              F                G  
We went to church on sunday 
         C
mornings like mama did
         F                  G     
Teenage love made us feel guilty 
         C
and so we hid
                G
Under those overpasses on summer 
nights
           F
We'd tear each other's clothes off
               (G)
And get into fights

[Chorus]
         Dm                     
Then we roared right through our 
   F
twenties
          G            C
Never bargained for a crash
              Dm               F
Watched our hollow dreams get buried
        G               C
Under heaps of plastic trash
         Dm           F           
Broken promises to children 
   G           Am
leaving idelible impressions
F                G         C
Welcome to the great depression


[Verse 2]
              C
We were our father's sons
F                       G        
Playing war on weekend days with 
      C
our plastic guns
          F               G       
Catching up with who we were 
        C
through the reruns
            G
"Eat your vitamins and say your 
prayers
                 F                 
You'll become doctors, lawyers and 
    (G)
millionairs"

            C
We were misguided kids
          F        G              
Tried to fuck our way through such
     C
 a distorted world
           F                G     
Confusing love and sex and plastic
        C
 with pearls
               G
"Get what you can for yourself, 
leave the rest behind"
          F                      
It's freedom forever 'til your card 
(G)
gets declined


[Chorus]

         Dm                     
Then we roared right through our 
   F
twenties
          G            C
Never bargained for a crash
              Dm               F
Watched our hollow dreams get buried
        G               C
Under heaps of plastic trash
         Dm           F           
Broken promises to children 
   G           Am
leaving idelible impressions
F                G         C
Welcome to the great depression

Did he die for your sins?

Did he leave us for dead?
       F   Am
If you wanted us safe why would you 
fuck with our heads?
            C  C
The factory's gone, the loans are 
foreclosed
             F   Am
But there's some places left that 
still remind me of home

There's some places left that still

Just give me one place left that 
reminds me of home

       F           G            Am
The lifeboat is looking pretty full
         F       G                
If you find some room reach out 
   Am  G     F
and give me a pull
F                      G         
The way we learned to live is 
     Am
fading fast
F                   G         
I guess we never bargained for a 
    C
crash
F                   G         
I guess we never bargained for a 
    C
crash
F                   G        
I know we never bargained for a 
    C
crash
