Empty Causes Tabs

(ver. 2)
Bad Religion
Empty causes
the Grey Race Album

1st verse:

[C]Everywhere you [G]looked there was [Am]confusion, violence,
[Em]drama and [F]dru[G]gs 
[C]So many rigtheous [G]revolutionaries [Am]spouting 
[Em]utopian [F]love
[E]Everyone shouted in purple[Am]haze 
Then one [E]day they woke up from their dream [Am]state
They found [G#]themselves no more at peace then [D#]before 
Older, meek and con[G]formed

Chorus 1:

[C]Em[G]pty [Am]causes[Em]
A [F]bluster for the soul, a [G]fix for the mind
[C]Em[G]pty [Am]causes[Em] 
[F]Cling to every[G]thing you [C]find[G]

2nd verse:

[C]Well, the shots rang out like [G]popcorn and the  [Am]chief was hit
and [Em]rushed out of [F]si[G]te 
[C]The mohawk-chained, [G]leather brigade re[Am]joiced malicious[Em]ly
on that [F]night [E]Someone cried out "f**k the govern[Am]ment"
[E]His mates couldn't define what he [Am]meant 
So no [G#]one gave him the time of  [D#]day And the scene died a[G]way

Chorus 2:

[C]Em[G]pty [Am]causes[Em]
A [F]war for the body, an [G]army in the mind
[C]Em[G]pty [Am]causes[Em]
[F]Losing steam as [G]time goes by[C]

Bridge:

[F]Could it be that [G]everybody [C]selfish[B]ly de[Am]sires their[G#]
own personal [D#]reti[A#]nue?
And the [F]causes are  [G]just manifesta[C]tions of  [B]too much [Am]time
and [G#]far too little to[D#]do[G] 

(Guitar solo in C major)

Chorus 3:

[C]Em[G]pty  [Am]causes[Em]
[F]Direction for the soul, [G]conviction for the mind
[C]Em[G]pty  [Am]causes[Em]
[F]Cling to it all[G] everything you find
[C]Em[G]pty  [Am]causes[Em]
A [F]war for the body, an [G]army in the mind
[C]Em[G]pty  [Am]causes[Em]
[F]You've got yours and [G]I've got mi[C][G][Am][Em][F][G]ne


[F(VIII)]Aah aah [F(I)]aah aah [C]aah
