C B A G F G

Everywhere you look there was confusion, violence, drama & drugs

C B A G F

So many righteous revolutionaries spouting Utopian love

E A

Everyone shrouded in a purple haze

E A

Then one day they woke up from their dream state

B C

They found themselves no more at peace than before

D

older, meek, and conformed

C G A E F D

Empty causes, a bluster for the soul, a fix for the mind

C G A E F G C G

Empty causes, cling to everything you find

C B A G F G

The shots rang out like popcorn and the chief was hid and rushed out of sight

C B A G F

The mohawk-chain, leather brigade rejoiced maliciously on that night

E A

Someone cried out "fuck the government"

E A

His mates couldn't define what he meant

B C D

So no one gave him the time of day and the scene died away

C G A E F D

Empty causes, a war for the body and an army in the mind

C G A E F G C

Empty causes, losing steam as time goes by

F G C B A

Could it be that everybody selfishly desires

A F C

Their own personal retinue

F G C B A

And the causes are just manifestations of too much time

F D

And far too little to do
