G C/G G

Welcome to the camp, I guess you all know why we're here

F Em

My name is Tommy, and I became aware this year

Eb G Gsus4 G

If you want to follow me, you've got to play pinball

C G C G

And put in your earplugs, put on your eyeshades

C G G G G F G

You know where to put the cork

Hey you gettin' drunk, so sorry, I've got you sussed

Hey you smokin' mother nature, this is a bust

Hey hung up ol' Mr. Normal, don't try to gain my trust

'Cause you ain't gonna follow me any of those ways

Although you think you must

[chorus]

We're not gonna take it

We're not gonna take it

We're not gonna take it

C G F C G

We're not gonna take it, never did and never will

C G F C

We're not gonna take it, gonna break it, gonna shake it

Now you can't hear me, your ears are truly sealed

You can't speak either, 'cause your mouth is filled

You can't see nothing, and pinball completes the scene

Here comes Uncle Ernie to guide you to your very own machine

We're not gonna take it

We're not gonna take it

We're not gonna take it

We're not gonna take it

C G F C G

We're not gonna take it, never did and never will

C G F C G

Don't want no religion, and as far as we can tell

C G F C G

We ain't gonna take you. Never did and never will

C G F C

We're not gonna take you, we forsake you, gonna rape you

Bb Am G

Let's forget you better still

F C

We forsake you, gonna rape you

Bb Am A

Let's forget you better still

A B C

Listening to you, I get the music

A B E

Gazing at you, I get the heat

A B C

Following you, I climb the mountain

G D Bsus4 B

I get excitement at your feet

Right behind you, I see the millions

On you, I see the glory

From you, I get opinions

From you, I get the story
