Introdução: Am
Am B C E F F/D
We started riots in the streets just so you could point the finger.
Am B C G
We set fire to these cities just so we could watch them burn and light our way.
E F
You can call us hell, call us what you will,
C
just don't you ever call us by our names.
Dm Dm/F Dm/E Am
We are you sisters, your brothers, your sons, the whole damn brigade.
F E Am E F
And we won't stop till every citizen, they get what they deserve.
Dm Am
So be kind to your elders and watch your words.
G C G Abm Am
I'm callin' it quits just as soon as we return,
E F G Am
but for now I'm just a patriot at work.
E F Am
So we sing "Oh you poor, poor soul.
F G
I've been sent here to bring you home.
C G Dm E F
My queen, she brews a powerful stew
F G Am
and we need just one piece of you."
Am B C E F F/D
We are the shadow that is cast upon your richest city square.
Am B C G
We are the voices that you'll hear a single hour 'fore we're there
E F
if the wind's in your favor.
C
And we only do to those as they have done to others so you should know
Dm Dm/F Dm/E Am
whether to wave as we're passing you by or hide in your rooms.
F E Am E F
Some give us praise, some join and stay, some say we're playing God.
Dm Am
And all in one voice we sing "you're wrong" but they may be not.
G C G Abm Am
So I'm callin' it quits just as soon as we return

So we sing "Oh you poor, poor soul.
F G
I've been sent here to bring you home.
C G Dm E F
My queen, she brews a powerful stew
F G Am
and we need just one piece of you."
