D                          G             D
The lobbists get breakfast and discuss their strategies
        D                          G                D
And the newsman seems excited to report the killing spree
    G              D                A         D
Put advertisements on the shirts of dying refugees
           G           D        A
And it's a long, long, long way back
       G        D          A              D
It's a long way back if we can't find the keys


[Verse 2]
    D                                    G               D
The collective voice's mouth has somehow lost its wisdom tooth
       D                                 G                D
In the private rocket launcher corporate sponsored voting booth
    G                  D              A                 D
And just because you repeat a lie, it won't make it the truth
          G           D        A
No it's a long, long, long way down
       G        D               A      D
It's a long way down if there's no parachute


[Verse 3]
    D                             G              D
And all the paid-off scientists resisting to the bone
     D                                             G                  D
They just discovered that polar bears don't give a damn about the new phone
    G                D            A             D
And people living in glass houses shouldn't fly drones
          G           D        A
No it's a long, long, long way home
       G        D                A        D
It's a long way home when you're walking alone


[Spoken bridge]
D
So stay together now
D
Here we go!


[Chorus]
     G
Just turn
      D
Turn around
    G        D      A
And feel yourself unbound
     G
Just turn
     D
Turn around
      G          D       A           D
See beneath your feet is only common ground


[Verse 4]
        D                       G            D
And the oil men get dinner on a tray of subsidies
    D                             G          D
And bullets in the name of God go flying overseas
    G               D                     A             D
But if their savior came right now they'd nail him to a tree
              G           D        A
'Cause it's a long, long, long way off
       G        D           A              D
It's a long way off if it's off just three degrees


[Verse 5]
    D                               G               D
The wind carries a whisper and it's starting to get loud
D                                    G                D
You can't fool the youth who see the truth behind the shroud
    G                        D                      A                  D
The trees in the forest that haven't fallen are the ones that make the sound
           G           D        A
And it's a long, long, long way down
       G           D        A
It's a long, long, long way down
           G             D          A        D
But it's a long way from over if we all turn around
            G             D          A        D
Yeah it's a long way from over if we all turn around


[Outro]
        G              D
And you turn yourself around
        G              A
And you turn yourself around
        G              D
And you turn yourself around
 A                    D
That's what it's all about
