(ver. 1)
The Thermals
Simple, straightforward, fun.

enjoy.

        Am
We are just a child, we are just a child
      F
we are wide awake but our legs are shaky
Am
we're unaware, we're hyper-active
  F
we stare into space with grims on our faces
F                     F
so give us what we're asking for
 Em                 F
cause either way, we're gonna take it
                   F
our power doesn't run on nothing
Em                                            Am
we need the land you're standing on so lets go
      F
move it

        Am
we are old as hell we are old 
                     F
and tell the children when to kill and when to sit still
Am
everyone doing what we say 
      F
till our dieing day, till our breath is empty
F                     F
so give us what we're asking for
 Em                 F
cause either way, we're gonna take it
                   F
our power doesn't run on nothing
Em                                            F
we need the land you're standing on so lets go
      F
move it
                        F
yeah you need to let it go
      F
move it

                    F
yeah we're, more equal,
                  Em
we'll move you people,
                                    Am
off the planet cause we need the fuel

                Am
so, so let the beat roll over,
                         F
the beat roll over, everyone in line, one in line
                Am
so, so let the beat roll over,
                         F
the beat roll over, everyone in line

one at a time
F                   F
they'll give us what we're asking for,
Em                 F
cause god is with us, and our god's the richest
                   F
our power doesn't run on nothing,

    Em                                 F        
it runs on blood, and blood is easy to obtain 
                   F      Am    F
when you have no shame
                  F
when you have no shame

       F
so let the sun bathe, let the sun bathe
      Am                      F
we'll still have life, we'll burn even brighter
  F
we'll drain the well, turn all to hell,
  Am                               F
leave the earth's surface to the worthless dirt
          F
let the beat roll over, let the beat roll over,
        Am                F
to everyone in mind, everyone in line
          F
you think we'll cease, you see a reason,
                Am
you think it's fair?
               F
to think it's fair,
              F       Am F
you think we care?

F Am F
