intro: D, A, G

D A G
Born into Nixon I was raised in hell
D A G
A welfare child where the teamsters dwelled
D A G
The last one born and the first one to run
D A G
My town was blind from refinery sun

Bm G
My generation is zero
Bm G A
I never made it as a working class hero

D A G
21st century breakdown
D A G
I once was lost but never was found
D A G
I think I'm losing what's left of my mind
D A G
To the 20th century deadline

D A G
I was made of poison and blood
D A G
Combination is what I understood
D A G
From Mexico to the Berlin Wall
D A G
Homeland security could kill us all

Bm G
My generation is zero
Bm G A
I never made it as a working class hero


D A G
21st century breakdown
D A G
I once was lost but never was found
D A G
I think I'm losing what's left of my mind
D A G
To the 20th century deadline

Part 2: Amaj chord

A D
We are the cries of the class of '13
A D
Born in the year of humility
A D
We are the desperate in the decline
A
Raised by the bastards of 1969

D G A D
My name is 'No one' your long lost son

Born on the 4th of July
D G A D
Raised in the barnyards of heroes and cons

Left me for dead or alive
D G A D
There is a war that's inside my head

That questions the results and lies
D G A D
I'm breaking my back till I'm better off dead

We are not payed enough to survive

Chord changes from D to G. Listen for change in song



D G A D
I am an engine, a worker, a pawn

My debt to the status quo
D G A D
The scars on my hands and a means to an end

It's all that I have to show
D G A D
I'm taking a loan on my sa ni ty

For the redemption of my soul
D G A D
Well I am exempt from this tra ge dy

And the 21st century fall


G A D G A D
I praise liber ty, the freedom to o bey
G A D
It's a song that strangles me
G D A
Well don't cross the line

G, D, A (repeat x3)

D Db B
Oh, dream, American dream
A G
I can't even sleep
A# D
From rainstorms till dawn
D Db B
Oh, bleed, America bleed
A G
Believe what you read
A#
From heroes and cons
