[Chorus]
EmCD
A moment of silence, please, for those who never get the chance
EmCD
They show up to the party, but they're never asked to dance
EmCD
The losers, the liars, the bastards, the thieves
EmCB
The cynicists, the pessimists, and those that don't believe in nothing
[Horn Riff]

[Verse]
EmCDEm
I never met a loser that I didn't see eye-to-eye with, I declare
CD
I stare into your eyes
EmCD
But you look right past me into the air
EmCD
What's it like to stand in your shoes?
EmCB
To have never felt the belt of somebody's abuse?
EmCD
I take the bottle and I tip it for all my heroes that have passed
EmCD
Alas, you have left us, but your stories they will last
EmCD
Uninspired by the recruiting call
Em
Independent we stand
EmCB
Independent we fall
[Trombone Solo]
EmCDEmCDEmCDEmCBBB
[Pre-Chorus Verse]
EmCG
So tell me how long do you think you can go before you lose it all?
D
Before they call you bluff and watch you fall?
EmC
I don't know, but I'd like to think I had control
GD
At some point, but I let it go and lost my soul
[Chorus]
EmC
Sit tight, but the revolution's years away
GD
I'm losing faith and I'm running low on things to say
EmC
So, I guess I have no choice but to regurgitate
GD
The tired anthem of a loser and a hypocrite
EmCGD
Oh! To have died that night, I realized it wouldn't last
EmC
Our days were numbered and the reaper tipped the hourglass
GD
The final mayday of our sinking ship had come and passed
EmCGD
Oh! To the west, you don't know what it is you're running from
EmC
And everybody's laughing loud
GD
Last chance to make your mother and your father proud
EmCDEmCDEmCDEmCB
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
EmCDEmCDEmCDEmCB
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
EmCD
A moment of silence, please, for those who never get the chance
EmCD
They show up to the party, but they're never asked to dance
EmCD
The losers, the liars, the bastards, the thieves
EmCB
The cynicists, the pessimists, and those that don't believe in nothing
[Horn Riff]
EmCDEmCDEmCDEmCB
[Verse]
EmCD
They said "a pox, upon your house, upon your family
EmCD
And everyone you knew, and everyone you'll ever meet"
EmCD
I bet they think we wish we joined when we could
EmCB
But we do what we want, we don't do what we should
EmCD
Now, everybody's laughing, 'cause they're thinking they're
in on something I don't get
Em
Don't forget
CD
I connect and I read every word you said
EmCD
Like a child who believes he was wronged
EmCB
If you hate me so much, then stop singing my songs
[Sax Solo]
