[Verse 1]
E B
Across this land everybody settled down
F#m
To a night of fitful dreams
A
And strange apparitions
E B
As we tossed and turned we saw ourselves exactly as we are
F#m A
And not surprisingly we found it frightening
E
Hey!
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
E
Well you don't choose the place or choose the time
B
But history's a slippery slide
F#m A
Be careful of those nasty drops down to the right
E
When you’re hit it must seem a pretty good choice
B
For they give all of our malice voice
F#m A
What do we expect if we won't open our arms
[Chorus]
B F#m C#m E B
(Singin' Hey) We're all just earrings to the left of our parents
F#m A F#m E
They're all just haircuts to the left of theirs
B
And we all wonder
A N.C. A
"Why do Nazis grow like wildflowers!"
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
E
(Hey!) Helen let's ditch the car let's hide
B
We'll throW seeds of doubt at passersby
F#m
They will cross onto our side
A
We'll sing our songs into the night
E
As we cast off all those strange facades
B
We'll see that we're all uniquely scarred
F#m
By the same hand
A
Beneath the same smile
[Chorus]
B F#m C#m E B
(Singin' Hey) We're all just earrings to the left of our parents
F#m A F#m E
They're all just haircuts to the left of theirs
B
And we all wonder
A N.C. G#m*
"Why do Nazis grow like wildflowers!"
[Bridge]
G#m* A* E*
Everybody dreams the same visions in the end
G#m* A*
But I know, everybody feels trapped and tired
B*
So if you see a strange door to the left
B
Then drop your things and run for it
[Instrumental]
