verse 1
C Em
We were riding out to meet the Sun
D C
We were shaking from the things we'd done
C Em
We were breaking every pattern straying from the map
D
To make a new life on the run
C Em
We were sick of life behind a lens
D C
With it stripped of all its innocence
C Em
Watch the hands above the puppets make another war
D D
For the benefit of their own ends

A couple pills in my hand
Gmaj
To take me out of my mind
G
Motherless land
G
A couple pills in my hand
G
To take me out of my mind
G
A couple we stand
G
A couple pills in our hands
G
To take us out of our minds
verse 2
C Em
So we grew up with a fear of God
D C
Made guilty of the things we're not
C Em
We were lost in vicious circles looking for a key
D D
Another door, another lock
C Em
As the Sun was dancing on the lake
D C
There was only so much we could take
C Em
So we left it all to happen, left it all to chance
D D
With a passion that they could not shake
Gmaj
Motherless land
Gmaj
A couple pills in my hand
Gmaj
To take me out of my mind
Gmaj
A couple we stand
Gmaj
A couple pills in our hands
Gmaj
To take us out of our minds
Em
Oh, take me out of my mind
G
Oh, take me out of my mind
Em
Take me out of my mind
G
Take me out of my mind
G
Out of my mind, yeah

verse 3
C Em
We've assassinated pacifists
D C
As if peace was something to resist
C Em
With the history repeating one day to the next
D D
Another thousand on the list
C Em
So what are we without the fear?
D C
And what are we without the shame?
C Em
And what are we when all is clear?
D D
What are we without a name?
