GGbEm
I felt no guilt ‘till I was caught, and I was told that I was guilty
CGD
And even then I wasn’t really sure, yeah yeah
CGDEm
That the thing I felt was guilt itself, or maybe it was something else
CD
Frustration at the fact that I was ever caught at all
GGbEm
I told a lie, that multiplied, by the time I realized it
CGD
I’d given up everything I’d ever loved, yeah yeah
CG
‘Cuz the thing you lack, when you’re looking back
DEm
is the pressure you feel that you have to act
CD
That everything is clearer when you’re looking at the past, oh no.
INTERLUDE
(Em, C, G, D) x 2
C
And I don’t care if I lose,
G
because my heroes did too.
D
I shouted “Court should be adjourned,
Em (C)
because the jury are fools.
GD (C)
And the judge can’t decipher his left from his right, or his right from his wrong.
CGD
And I will bite the hand that thieves, I will not turn the other cheek
Em (C)
This is no threat, it is a promise I will keep.
CGD
So what’s the point in pretending, when we’ve seen behind the curtain
D
And there’s nothin’ much to see, oh yeah

....
C
I won't forget,
G
the things you said,
D
when I was down,
Em
and I was tired of it.
G
The words you spoke,
D
They brought me hope...
C
When it was time to fight,
D
We chose a side,
EmC
But everyone knew that something didn't feel right.
G
So we stood our ground,
D
