C
I've been waiting for so long
    Am
to come here now and sing this song
C
Don't be fooled by what you see
Am                                 C  F  C  F
Don't be fooled by what you hear
C
This is a song to all of my friends
Am
they take the challenge to their hearts
C
Challenging preconcieved ideas
Am
Saying goodbye to longstanding fears

F           G    F         G      F       G
Don't crack up, bend your brain, see both sides

Throw off your mental chains

C
I don't wanna be hip and cool
Am
I don't wanna play by the rules
     C
Not under the thumb of a cynical few
    Am
Or laden down by the doom crew
