[Intro 1]
[Am][F][Dm][Bb][Am][F][Dm][Eb][Am]

[Verse 1]
Anxious steps
everyday through the hall[Bb]s of learning[C]
[Bb]She's [Am]watching every corner,
[Bb]she's pray[Am]ing for a warning
[Bb]She's [Am]just a child of 8 years [Bb]old,
[Am]already [Bb]scared [C]to die[Bb]
And [Am]no one's done a fucking th[Bb]ing
but watch the [Am]bul lets f[Bb]ly

[Verse 2]
Our [Am]nerves are cobwebbed
with the dust of atrocity
[Bb]The dead[Am]ly daily spectacle
erodes hu[C]man[Am]ity
[C]Jad[Bb]ed an[Am]d desensitized, a
spreading apathy
Fast forgotten thoughts and prayers for number
[C]s o[Am]n a scr[C]een[Bb][Am]
(For numbers on a screen)
[F]Another massacre,

[Verse 3]
[Am]
[Bb]anot[Am]her day gone[Bb] by[C][Am][C]
Is this the [Dm]new abnormal?
[Am]Pur suing il[Bb]lusion[Am] s as we
turn a [Bb]blind [C]eye[Am][C]
This is the [Dm]new abnormal

[Interlude 1]
[Dm][Am][F]

[Verse 4]
[Am]Anguished steps through the [Bb]ashes
[Am]of a black[Bb]ened plain[C][Bb]
[Am]He used to walk the jungle there
[Bb]in p[C]erfe[Bb]ct h[Am]armony
[Bb]He's[C] an [Bb]old [Am]man of 80 years,
[Bb]last[Am] of a diff[Bb]erent [Bb5]world[C#5][C][Bb]
Pro[Am]gress has wiped his people [Bb]out ,
they never [Am]will [Bb]return

[Verse 5]
[Am]Out of sight, out of our minds,
four thousand miles [Bb]away
Our [Am]willful ignorance will [C]turn
[Bb]this home into a [Am]grave
[Bb]The air [Am]is getting thinner,
our lungs are set ablaze
We've [Bb]con [Am]sumed ourselves to death,
[Bb]catastrophe
[Am]

[Verse 6]
Another massacre,
[Bb]anot[Am]her day gone[Bb] by[C][Am][C]
Is this the [Dm]new abnormal?
[Am]Pur suing il[Bb]lusion[Am] s as we
turn a [Bb]blind [C]eye[Am][C]
This is the [Dm]new [D5]abnor[Dm]mal
[Am]

[Interlude 2]
[F][Am]
[F][Am]
[F][Dm][Eb][Dm][Am][F][Dm]
[Eb][Bb]

[Verse 7]
[Am]Slip so easily into dull indifference
When [E5]horror has [F]been
normalized a [Dm]cynical [D5]defense
[Eb]But [Bb]I can't sit there sil[Am]ently
and watch it all go by
The strongest [F]hearts will raise their voice
again[Dm]st the murd[D5]erous tide
[Eb]No, [Am]it can't go on like this
Millions [F]of voices echo [Dm]in the darkness,
[Eb]scream[Bb]ing
[Am]No, I won't accept this
The faint [F]of heart will fall in line
[Dm]but I will not sub[Eb]mit[Bb]

[Verse 8]
[Am]An o[Bb]ther [Am]massacre,
another day gone [C]by[Am][C]
Is this the [Dm]new abnormal?
Pur[Am]suing illusions as we
turn a blind [C]eye[Am][C]
This is the [Dm]new [C]abnormal

[Verse 9]
Reject the [Dm]new a[Am]bnormal
