  I'm going down to have a drink at the bar 
D                       G
  When everything comes to a stop

Angry at the police and I'm taking it easy 
        D                              G
Getting screwed by the system and it's not getting easy 

[Chorus] x2(Power Chords)
D                   C
Cause every now and then
G               A
  Things come together 
D                       C
  Cause every once in a while
G           A
  We get it right!
