[Intro]
| A5 | D2 | Fmaj7 G | G A | x2
[Verse 1]
A5 D2 Fmaj7 G A
You declared you would be three inches taller, You only became what we made
you.
A5 D2 Fmaj7 G A
Thought you were chasing a destiny calling, You only earned what we gave you.
D G/D D7 G/D
You fell and cried as our people were starving, now you know that we blame
you.
A5 D2 F G A
You tried to walk on the trail we were carving, now you know that we framed you.
[Chorus]
D G/D Cadd9
I'm the guy in the sky flying high flashing eyes
G E
No surprise I told lies I'm the punk in the gutter
Esus4 D2/B
I'm the new president but I grew and I bent
A E
Don't you know? don't it show? I'm the punk with the stutter.

[Verse 2]
A5 D2
We tried to speak between lines of oration
Fmaj7 G A
You could only repeat what we told you.
A5 D2
Your axe belongs to a dying nation,
Fmaj7 G A
They don't know that we own you.
D G/D
You're watching movies trying to find the feelers,
D7 G/D
You only see what we show you.
A5 D2
We're the slaves of the phony leaders
F G A
Breathe the air we have blown you.
[Chorus]
D G/D Cadd9
I'm the guy in the sky flying high flashing eyes

[Bridge]
D G/C G/B
I have to be careful not to preach, I can't pretend that I can teach,
A
And yet I've lived your future out by pounding stages like a clown.
D G/C G/B
And on the dance floor broken glass, the bloody faces slowly pass,
A
The numbered seats in empty rows, it all belongs to me, you know.
