Blank Generation Chords

(ver. 2)
Richard Hell
Verse 1:
Bm    A              G        F#
I was sayin let me out of here before I was
Bm    A              G          F# 
Even born--it's such a gamble when you get a face
Bm            A          G            F#
It's fascinatin to observe what the mirror does
Bm            A                 G          F#
But when I dine it's for the wall that I set a place

Chorus:
Bm      A              G      F#
I belong to the blank generation and
Bm      A           G         F#
I can take it or leave it each time
Bm     A               G        F#
I belong to the ______ generation but
Bm         F#               Bm/B           
I can take it or leave it each time

Verse 2:
Bm    A              G        F#
Triangles were fallin at the window as the doctor cursed
Bm    A              G        F#
He was a cartoon long forsaken by the public eye
Bm    A              G        F#
The nurse adjusted her garters as I breathed my first
Bm    A              G        F#
The doctor grabbed my throat and yelled, "God's consolation prize!"

Chorus:
Bm      A              G      F#
I belong to the blank generation and
Bm      A              G      F#
I can take it or leave it each time
Bm      A              G      F#
I belong to the ______ generation but
Bm         F#               Bm/B       
I can take it or leave it each time

Verse 3:
Bm    A              G        F#
To hold the T. V. To my lips, the air so packed with cash
Bm    A              G        F#
Then carry it up flights of stairs and drop it in the vacant lot
Bm    A              G        F#
To lose my train of thought and fall into your arms' tracks
Bm    A              G        F#
And watch beneath the eyelids every passing dot

Chorus:
Bm      A              G      F#
I belong to the blank generation and
Bm      A              G      F#
I can take it or leave it each time
Bm      A              G      F#
I belong to the ______ generation but
Bm         F#               Bm/B      
I can take it or leave it each time

End:
Bm      A              G      F#
