This is not in the right key but it's how I play it acoustically and the
chords sound great, and you could always use a capo to adjust it.
Enjoy!

Blacktop pavement cover me
Am Dm F G
Like a chemical reaction or a steam roller Spreading randomly

There's a distant buzz and a low frequency

Institution on the Hill
Am Dm F G
Like a beacon in the mind of an ancestor To ignite a people's will

It has spread like decay to enshroud the fraud

And the descendants find oh so odd (oh so odd)

What was once, is reduced to remembrance

And the generations pass without recompense (aaah aaah aaah)

What pretension! Everlasting peace
F G (Am)
Everything must (cease)
That's it!
