Verse 1
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
I hope I don't bore you if I tell you a story
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
Of what I thought I would see behind these scenes
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
I thought we all could just play, my friends would be paid
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
The same as the boys in the bands, we'd all get home safe
[A] [D] [F#m] [E] [A]
But the water's not rising, is that just a tide that goes back again?
[D] [F#m] [E]
Chorus
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
Oh, the times haven't changed all that much
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
I feel the wind in my hair but it's not enough
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
When the same people stand in charge
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
This old game we keep playing keeps breaking my heart

[A] [D]
I grew up white privilegеd
[F#m] [E] [A] [D]
Did guitar lessons then I got to becomе a musician
[F#m] [E]
But I still don't share their drink
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
They throw a little bit on the fire to keep all of us quiet
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
Knowing it'll still burn us, we'll keep waiting for our turn

Verse 3
[A] [D]
You'd shake your head
[F#m] [E] [A]
If I told you what the boys backstage have said
[D]
But it's under NDAs
[F#m] [E] [A]
Flawed people, they say "alcohol made evil"
[D]
But he'll leave with the millions
[F#m] [E]
The woman who signed
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
Will walk home crying in silence

Bridge
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
I'm sick of silence from boys in bands
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
And I'm tired of talking to heads in sand
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
I know it's hard for everyone and a stage isn't a given
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
I know there's way worse off than us here, singing
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
But our stories are young, broken and cold
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
And I don't want these tokens when these men get gold
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
I don't want to take what I don't deserve
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
I'd just like a revolution now from this little verse
Chorus
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
Oh, the times haven't changed all that much
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
I feel the wind in my hair but it's not enough
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
When the same people stand in charge
[A] [D] [F#m] [E]
This old game we keep playing keeps breaking my heart
[Post-Chorus]
