I'm In Love With The System
Tom Wilson
VERSE:
E A
Sometimes I wonder if I'm lost or getting found
E A
Shaking off the dirt that I got downtown
F#m A
Looking at the buildings and factories
F#m A
Wondering what the hell became of me
CHORUS:
E A
I'm in love with the system that keeps me down
E A
I'm in love with the system that keeps me down
VERSE:
I went to school but I never had a hope
I spent all my money on records and dope
Wondering through the daylight trying to save face
While my head took a tour in outer space
A F#m A
If this world don't change me baby
F#m E
I'm still the same
A F#m A
If this world still claims me darling
F#m E
Then I'm to blame
CHORUS:
E A
I'm in love with the system that keeps me down
E A
I'm in love with the system that keeps me down
F#m A E A
I'm in love with the system that keeps me hanging around
E A
yeah, yeah, yeah
VERSE:
Now all my friends sit around and watch T.V.
While the world goes to work and shops for groceries
And I'm just a pill popping burned up punk
With a Joe Strummer heart and a head full of junk
If this world don't change me baby
I'm still the same
If this world still claims me darling
Then I'm to blame
CHORUS:
BREAK:
E,A,E,A,F#m,A,E,A,E,A
VERSE:
When the moon stops rolling through my nights
And the sidewalks of the suburbs have the last of their lights
We might get together and kill some time
With the shirts off our backs and remember our crimes
If this world don't change me baby
If this world still claims me darling
CHORUS:
OUTRO:
E,A X6 E
