Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Em][Am]
[G][Am]

[Verse 1]
I [Am]started
out to write a simple song
To make you [Em]dance [Am]and
have you sing along
[Em]I gr[Am]abbed the pen,
[G]my min[Am]d began to tur[Dm]n[D]
[Am]And got me t[Em]hinking,
[G]I can't w[Am]aste a single w[Em]ord
[Am]How can we sit back, relax,
[D]and take it easy
When [Dm]we see al[Gsus4]l our world'[G]s
falling [C]through[Am][G#dim]
[Am]Chosen our life, left the dark,
[D]let's make decisions
[Am]The [Dm]phone is now passed [Gsus4]out,
guess [Dm]what we've [E]got [D]left [Am]to say
No, we don't [D]take it,
we [Am]just won't ac[D]cept it
[G]We see [Am]what you're trying to do
Yes, [D]we [C]do[G]
[Am]What's right is wrong,
[Em]what was w[Am]rong is now right
[Dm]In the s[D]ight[Am] of the lack of compassion[D]
[C]You[G] wo[Am]n't find love
in a bottle or a [Em]jug
[Dm]You won't [Am]find it in a one -night stand
[G]You nee[Am]d so much more
Everything you're looking for is here
if you'll just reach out your hand,
[D]oh baby
[Am]How can we sit back, relax,
[D]and take it easy
When [Dm]we see all the
[G]world's going [Dm]through
[Am]And [Dm]we know yo[E]u wi[G#dim]ll too
[Am]Chosen for life, left the dark,
[D]let's make decisions
The [G]promise [Gsus4]not passed out,[G]
what [Dm]we've [Em]got t[D]o do
[C]Say[G]!
[Am]No we won't take it,
we just won't accept it
We see what you're trying to do
Exactly [D]what you're [C]trying to [G]do
[Am]What's right is wrong,
what [G]was [Am]wrong is now right
In the sight of political com[Em]pas s[D]ion
[C][Am][Dm][Am]
[C][G][C][F][Am]
The
politics of compassion,
they're ruining your [Em]fashion
But [Am]you wouldn't notice,
you're too busy [Em]try ing to be so c[Am]ool
They got [Em]your fool to scratch [Am]their back
and they'll stab yours
[G]Of cou[Am]rse he says he loves ya,
he doesn't even know ya
You met him just tonight
and already he wants to [Em]show ya
How [E]good he is in [Am]bed,
but tomorrow you'll see
He'll be saying, so long,
it's in the dark to build a man
Now [D]what about [Am]drugs and all that stuff?
Take a hit, little more, little more,
that's enough
[Em]Now they g[Dm]ot y[Am]ou hooked,
just like a big fish
And you can't get away,
no matter how you [G]wish
All this [Am]stuff makes me sick,
just to think that we
I don't like the things that kill our family
[Em]What to [D]do, what to [Am]do?
We [Dm]gotta get a [Am]clue
The future of the world depend[D]s on you
If you're tired of the [Am]system
jerking white, oh you
Then you know what to do
Join along with the crew and say
No we won't take it
We just won't accept it
We'll see what you're trying to [D]do[C]
[Am]What's right is wrong
What was wrong is now right
In the side of my leg
Of com[Em]pas [D]sion
[Am]So let's all get a reason,
back to action,
[D]and take it easy
When [Dm]we see [Gsus4]all our
world's going [Dm]to ruin
[G]Childre[Am]n of light, that's the dark
[D]Let's make decisions,
[Dm]to prom[F]ise not pass [Gsus4]out
Use [Dm]what we've [Em]got t[D]o [C]do, [G]say!
[Am]No we won't take it,
we just won't accept it
[G]We [Am]see what you're trying to do
Exactly [Dm]what you're [C]trying to [Am]do
What's right is wrong,
what was wrong is now right
[Dm]In the s[D]ight of poli[Am]tical compas s[Em]ion[Dm][C]
[G]No,[Am] we won't take it,
[D]we [Am]just won't accept it
We'll see what you're trying to [E]do[D][C]
[G]Wha[Am]t's right is wrong,
what was wrong is now right
[Em]In the s[Am]ight of political compas s[Em]ion[D][C][G]
[Em][Dm][C][Bm][Em][E][Am]
[D][Am]
[D][C]
[Am]No we won't take it,
[D]we [Am]just won't accept it
We'll see what you're trying to [D]do[C]
[Am]What's right is wrong,
what was wrong is now right
In the sight of the light of compassion
[Am]No we won't take it,
we just won't accept [Am]it

[Outro 1]
We see what you're trying to do
