F
Some people say
     Em          Am
that beauty lies within
F                            Em     Am
I say that there are lies in beauty
F                   Em     Am
still I gotta do my duties
F                        Em    Am
to get the punch and the julip

when did I
become such a cynic
I used to hate being logic
still when he tried to explain what it is
he can make a christian to a nihilst

F (whole verse)
I wanna rise above the flag tops
I want a solid ground to stand on
but good love will always
abandon you

C
so clap your hands for
love and romance
teachers and pupils
winners and losers
F
Careful suckers
coming out of lockers
disorientated
heavily sedated
C
clap your hands for
sex and violence
monday mornings
and awkward silence
F
Careful suckers
coming out of lockers
disorientated
heavily sedated

F                       G     Am
is there anyone in this crowd tonight
F                             G         Am
who'd accept the challenge to change my mind?
is there anyone in this crowd tonight
who'd accept the challenge to change my mind?

F
is there anyone in this crowd tonight
      G                       Am
who'd accept the challenge to change my mind?
is there anyone in this crowd tonight
who'd accept the challenge to change my mind?

F
is there..
F
I wanna rise above the flag tops
