-Verse 1-
C2��� G/B��������� Am11��� G5������� C2
Well, I can't stop staring at myself;
G/B����������� Am11������ G5�������� C2
My face reflected in this empty plate.
G/B���������� Am11�������� G5�� C2
I can't decide if it's the devil
G/B�������� Am11��� G5�������� C2G/B Am11 G5
Or if it's just something I ate.
G/B������������� Am11���������� G5
'Cause he's been down there all morning.
C2�� G/B������ Am11��� G5������� C2
He's patiently waiting at my gate.
G/B���������� Am11������� G5��� C2
He's throwing rocks at my window.
G/B���������� Am11������� G5����� C2������ G/B Am11
Hey won't you come on out and play with me?


-Verse 2-
C2� G/B� Am11���� G5����� C2
But everyday when I get up
G/B�������� Am11��� G5������������ C2
I see folks trading in their crowns
G/B���������� Am11���� G5
for all these paper or plastic lives;
C2 G/B������ Am11 G5
An opiate for the masses hounds.
C2� G/B���������� Am11������ G5
And pride, like a vestige of lives lost.
C2������ G/B������������� Am11�� G5���������� C2
It's the stench of the old folks coming 'round.
G/B����������� Am11 G5
Now with the news I heard today,
C2 G/B������������� Am11����� G5���������� C2
I can't tell if this world is lost or found.


-Chorus-
��� D2����������������� C2
You go; I'll be waiting here.
�������������� D2
And I'm awake, I cannot sleep.
�� C2�������� D2
G I'll sit upon this rock is you.
� Am7�������������������������� C2
I ain't standing up for nothing.

-Verse 2-
C2��� G/B������� Am11��� G5 
Well, I've never seen my congressman,
C2� G/B������ Am11��� G5 
But I can't deny that he exists.
C2���� G/B���������� Am11 G5�������� C2
'Cause I've seen his legislation pass;
G/B�������������� Am11��� G5 
I've seen his name on the ballot list.
C2��� G/B������ Am11������� G5����� C2
Same, I can't deny this fallen world.
G/B�������������� Am11� G5 
Though not my home it's where I live.
C2� G/B���������� Am11 G5 
How can I preserve and light the way
C2��� G/B�������������� Am11 G5���� C2
for a world that I can't admit I'm in?


-Chorus-
�������� D2���������������� C2
'Cause I know who I say You are,
��������� D2����������������� C2
But these crows can't be made to stop.
�� D2����������������� Am7
G I'll sit denying by this fire
������������������������������ C2
I ain't standing up for nothing

Lack of interest leads to,
������ D2/F#
Lack of knowledge leads to,
������ G5
Lack of perspective leads to,
������ E
Lack of communication leads to,
������ Am7
Lack of understanding leads to,
������ A#m7(b5)
Lack of concern leads to,
������� B
This complacency denotes,
������ C2
This approval denies
D2
The truth.


C2� G/B��������� Am11��� G5������ C2
But I can't stop staring at myself;
��� G/B������������ Am11������ G5��������� C2
It's my face reflected in this empty plate.
G/B�� Am11�������������� G5�� C2
And I know that it's the devil.


G/B Am11 G5


C2���� D2����������������������� C2
G You lead; and I'll be close behind.
������ D2������������������������� C2
G You speak and I'll hang on Your words.
������������������ D2������������������� Am7
You've got to lift me from this hardened tree,
������������������������������������� C2 G/B
'Cause I ain't standing up for nothing.


Am11 G5 C2 G/B Am11


G5���� C2
nothin'.
