D
Well a teacher of mine once told me
That life was just a list of
G
disappoints and defeats
And you could
A
only do your best,
And I said
D
"That's a fucking cop-out, you're just washed up and your tired, and when
G
I get to your age I
A
won't be such a coward"
But these
Em
days I sit at home, known to
G
shout at my TVAnd
Bm
Punk Rock didn't live up to what I
A
hoped that it could be
And all the
Em
things that I believed with all my
G
heart when I was young
Are just
Bm
coasters for beers and clean
A
surfaces for drugs
And I
G
packed all my
Em
pamflets with my
G
bibles at the
A
back of the
D
shelf

CHORUS
Oh but
D
once we were
A
young, and we were
(Bm)crass enough to
G
But I guess you
Em
live and learn
A
we won't make that
Em
mistake again,
A
no
Oh but
D
surely just for one
A
day, we could
Bm
fight and we could
G
win
And if only for a
Em
little while,
A
we could insist on the
Em
impossible

BRIDGE
Well we've
Bm
been a good few hours drinking so I'm going to
A
say what everyone's thinkng If we're
G
Stuck on this ship and it's
D
sinking then we
Em
Might as well
A
Have
D
Parade
Cos if it's
Bm
Still going to hurt in the morning and a
A
Better plan's yet to get forming Then
G
Wheres the harm in spending an
D
Evening in
Em
Manning the
