Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Em][Am][Em][Am]
[D]
[Am]And [Em]the beat

[Verse 1]
goes on,
drone [Am]drone [C]like a metronome
[Am]Day in and day out I know [D]how
the story gonna go
[Em]Typical, typical,
tongue [C]tied and weak willed
[Am]Stuck on the sedative,
evidently [D]to sleep well
[Em]But I haven't slept in days,
[Am]I haven't dreamt in nights
I've been busy building theories
I [D]just can't wait to try
[Em]See, I think the beat's made [Am]to drown
out the sound of the boom boom
While they shoot our last [D]hope [Em]down

[Verse 2]
[Em]Pop culture does n[Am]othing f[C]or me
The [Am]American dream mainstream
[D]just bores me
'Cause [C]I'm not [Em]like you,
I'm immune, I'm [C]immune
Say it [Am]over and over until it [D]comes [Em]true
Pop culture does [C]nothing for me
The [Am]American dream
mainstream [D]just bores me
[Em]And we all act like we see right t[C]hrough it
[Am]When we all know we're addicted [D]to it
And the [Em]beat

[Verse 3]
goes on,
drone [C]drone like a metronome
[Am]Day in and day out I know
[D]how the story gonna go
And the [Em]beat goes on,
drone [C]drone like a metronome
[Am]Day in and day out I know [D]how
the story gonna go
[Em]Check out them men in suits,
[Am]they're working overtime,
Memorizing what you buy,
analyz[D]ing what you like
[Em]I think the beat's made to c[Am]lash
[C]and distract [Am]while [Em]they cha ching
[Am]Try and buy our loyalties [D]back[Em]

[Verse 4]
[Em]Pop culture does n[Am]othing f[C]or me
The [Am]American dream
mainstream [D]just bores me
[Am]'Cause I'm n[Em]ot like you,
I'm immune, I'm [C]immune
Say it [Am]over and over until it [D]comes [Em]true
Pop culture does [C]nothing for me
The [Am]American dream
mainstream [D]just bores me
[Em]And we all act like we see right t[C]hrough it
[Am]When we all know we're addicted [D]to it
[Em][C]
