Bm F#m Worn and tattered, evils of the Western world Bm F#m Real better, over in America Bm F#m The weather, so serene and calm Bm Unseasonably warm Em F#m Light a candle for the suffering ones Em F#m Light a candle for the weak and the small Em F#m God damn it, there's a lot of 'em Em F#m Kinda think that in the modern world Bm F#m Holy terror, asleep when the alarms went off Bm F#m You're in the mirror, studying your golden locks Bm F#m I love you, lets marry when the time is right Bm Or whenever, you like Em F#m Say a prayer for all the people that died Em F#m Say another for me once in awhile Em F#m I hit rock bottom, I'm getting old Em F#m I was really hoping that the modern world D F#m Happy living in a dumpster world D F#m Break out everybody in the jail, lets get it on D F#m Let out the wolves, I'm happy living in a dumpster world D F#m Bring on the booze, start it off Em F#m We won't be arrested, for nothing now Em F#m Don't pick up that trash, put more of it on the ground D F#m Bust out the drugs, I'm happy living in a dumpster world D F#m Everyone in jail, yeah, lets get it on D F#m Let out the wolves, I'm happy living in a dumpster world D F#m That's mine now, come and get it on D Bust out the drugs Em F#m Light a candle for the suffering ones Em F#m Light a candle for the weak and the small Em F#m Say a prayer for all the people who've gone Em F#m There's no hope for any modern world
