Frank Turner - 21St Century Survival Blues Chords

[Intro]
F C G Am
F C E Am


[Verse 1]
            Am
I've got the 21st century survival blues
   G
A condition brought on by watching the news
Dm
Things have been quiet for far too long

EAnd if I know human beings, things are gonna go wrong
        Am
We were raised in a glade of unsustainable peace
G
Not many of us ever have to live on our knees
Dm
I'm scared that I won't have the strength that it takes
         E
To stand up when the levee breaks


[Chorus]
              F                       G
So meet me at home when the sirens go off
                 E                      Am
I don't wanna be alone so don't you get lost
          F                             G
I know a place where the two of us can hide
                      E                      Am
We can barricade the door and we'd be safe inside
                      F                       G
When the harsh winds blow and the world gets cold
                 E                          Am
You can't trust kindness and you can't eat gold
                   F                 G
I've got the 21st century survival blues
                      E
But to tell you the truth I just need you


[Verse 2]
              Am
I've got the 21st century survival blues
      G
A generation raised up without paying its dues
  Dm
Comfortable enough to play around with that
          E
Without knowing how to survive when the lights go out
           Am
And if we take away the things that they've been depending on
          G
We'll be failing like children in a nursery home
       Dm
So I started making lists of the essential things
               E
For when the storms bring what they bring


[Chorus]
              F                       G
So meet me at home when the sirens go off
                 E                      Am
I don't wanna be alone so don't you get lost
          F                             G
I know a place where the two of us can hide
                      E                      Am
We can barricade the door and we'd be safe inside
                      F                       G
When the harsh winds blow and the world gets cold
                 E                          Am
You can't trust kindness and you can't eat gold
                   F                 G
I've got the 21st century survival blues
                      E
But to tell you the truth
             F C G Am F C E Am
I just need you-you
             F C G Am F C E Am
I just need you-you


[Verse 3]
F
I've got the 21st century survival blues
F#
I've got shelter, drinking water I've got cupboards of food
F
And I know I can survive in my apocalypse home
F#                                                        G
But what's the point of surviving if you're just surviving alone


[Chorus]
              F                       G
So meet me at home when the sirens go off
                 E                      Am
I don't wanna be alone so don't you get lost
          F                             G
I know a place where the two of us can hide
                      E                      Am
We can barricade the door and we'd be safe inside
                      F                       G
When the harsh winds blow and the world gets cold
                 E                          Am
You can't trust kindness and you can't eat gold
                   F                 G
I've got the 21st century survival blues
                      E
But to tell you the truth, let me tell you the truth
             F C G Am F C E Am
I just need you-you
             F C G Am F C E Am
I just need you-you
