Am E F C F C G Am


[Verse]
Am        E         F               C       F            C               G          Am
  And for once, the whole truth was clear  Everything's new and there's no turning back
   Am           E            F          C      F                C              G           Am
So I'll seek no comfort, and shelter no fear   Where they plant orchards, I'll reap barren land 

[Chorus]
Am    E      F          C     F       C          G            Am
Egalitarians with empty hands   is it justice to split up the dust?
Am       E                F          C      F               C          G             Am
  We are damned and we'll never earn bread  And so we shall steal everything that we must

[Verse]
Am        E              F             C         F           C            G          Am
  Show me peace and I'll run from that hell I'll head up the mountain and never come back 
Am      E             F         C           F           C         G            Am
Show me utopia; I'll call it a jail.  We'll pick up the pieces to snap them in half

[Chorus]
Am         E       F          C      F       C          G         Am
We're egalitarians with empty hands    Is it justice dividing the sand?
Am       E                F          C      F        C           G             Am
  We are damned and we'll never earn trust  So we'll betray everything that we can

    F          C         G              Am
And so we'll betray everything that we can
    F          C           G            Am    
And so we'll betray everything that we must
