B                                    C# 
Here they come in style to blow you away 
B                                  C# 
Flashing the future in everybody's face 
B                                        C# 
Were chased off schoolyards and into the streets 
D#m 
Who rode so hard in the warm California breeze

And these kids who changed everybody's lives

To wipe out and rebuild for you and I

Breaking through and yet completely ignored 
B                                 C# 
Destroying things that can't be restored 
D#m 
I adore and I'm completely in awe

Of kids who kill and really go for

Drowning all the things that came before

Who broke through like they're at war

Gimme more gimme more gimme more yeah
