Verses
             A              E Every Friday night in every town
    B                   Dthe walls come crashing down
        A         E      Band the man falls to his knees.
     A                   EAnd, when the breakdowns hit
    B               Dthe kids will go apeshit
    A         E      Aand tear down society.

    A               E   The singer's on the stage
         B                Dwith the spotlight on his rage
      A        E                Aas we wave our timecards in the air.
    A               E       B                  D  For one man's rebel rock is another's punching clock
    A             Ethe world is just pretending,
    A             Ethe world is just pretending
    A             E          B     Dthe world is just pretending to be scared.

A           E                   B                   DYesterday's taboos were cashing checks for you-know-who
            A        E               Aand there's GG Allin t-shirts in the mall.
              A                EBut, we're so scared of losing face
        B              Din this faster, louder race,
A               E                   Asometime's it's easier to just play ball.

       A              ESo, up there in garageland
          B              Da hundred million garage bands
        A               E            Bspend a hundred million hours in the lab.
          A              E            B              DSomething old, something new, but the same old 'fuck you.'

Breakdown/Chorus 
(At first, just play fairly soft w/o strumming for first time playing this part of 
the song. After first play through, just put more energy into it- strumming, 
played faster; it's punk, do it how you want.)

A            E                B              DWe played it louder, but they laughed at us.
A            E                     B           DWe played it faster, but they were only acting scared.
A            E              B          DWe raised our voices to the heavens in disgust.
A          E                          B                  DWe put our souls through hell just to find them laughing there.

(After second play-through)

We played it louder, but they laughed at us. (So, what do we do now?)
We played it faster, but they were only acting scared. (So, what do we do now?)
We raised our voices to the heavens in disgust (So, what do we do now?)
We put our souls through hell just to find them laughing there. (So, what do we do now?)

                 A      E      B      DSo what do we do now? 

(play however many times to end the song.)

Dunno if these guys are still together, but they're a pretty great folk punk group 
out of Boston.
