We May Be The Ones Chords

(ver. 1)
Paul Westerberg
[intro]
F#        G#           C#
  I wanna know I wanna know
F#        G#           C#
  I wanna know I wanna know
 
[Verse]
        F#
Was the garage your playground?
G#7
Your pool a hose
        C#
Did you p**s in the alley?
  F#            C#7
& Get your toes caught
        F#                     G#7
In the spokes of a bike with a banana seat
        C#                     Bdim        A#7
Did you carry a knife that was rusted shut tight?
        D#m         C#         G#7
You got drunk after church at 13
 
[Chorus]
B  F#     C#7          D#m
We may    we'll be the ones
   B   F#   C#7          D#m
To set this world on its ear
B  F#  C#7          D#m
We may we'll be the ones
C#7          Ebm        G#7
If not, then why are we here
 
F#      G#            C#
I wanna know, I wanna know    x2
 
[Verse 2]
    F#                           G#7
The sweet smell of candles burnt low by young women
C#                         F#         C#7
Alone on their own for the very first time
      F#                             G#
Under posters of rock stars that you vaguely resemble
   C#                Bdim          A#7
In front of a cat a resounding "perhaps"
            D#m           C#          G#7
Means that you'll be the next one in line
 
[Chorus 2]
B  F#     C#7          D#m
We may    we'll be the ones
   B   F#   C#7          D#m
To set this world on its ear
B  F#  C#7          D#m
We may we'll be the ones
C#7          Ebm        G#7
If not, then why are we here
B             C#         F#
Why the hell then are we here
 
F#      G#            C#
I wanna know, I wanna know   x2
 
[Bridge]
D#m     C#          B
You may well be the next one
D#m     C#          B
Someone sell me a handgun
D#m     C#      B
Goodbye Ma, I'm done for
D#m      C#          G#
It's the law tell me what for
 
F#        G#           C#
 I wanna know, I wanna know     x2
 
[Verse 3]
      F#
Smoke cigarette butts
          G#7
From your brother's green helmet
   C#
He wore in that war once
      F#       C#7
Where everyone lost
          F#                G#
And they taught him to pour coffee and napalm
    C#                       Bdim    A#7
And traded his storm for an intense calm
     D#m        C#      G#
That just won't let him be
 
[Chorus 3]
B  F#  C#7         D#m
We may well be the ones
   B   F#    C#7         D#m
To set this world on its ear
B  F#  C#7          D#m
We may we'll get it done
F#           C#           B
If not then why are we   here?
B  F#  C#7          D#m
We may well be the ones
F#  B      G#
      What else have we got
B  F#  C#7         D#m
We may well be the ones
F#   C#         B
     hmmm under god
