Way Beyond

Em        C                   Am    Em
  The animals break out their ca - ges, now
Em          C             Am   Em
  Chaos is raining down around us
Em              C                  Am    Em
  But here we stand with our arms fol - ded
                  Em   C       Am  Em
  Do you wanna be fr - ee of this?


[Verse 2]
Em            C             Am  Em
  When panic rises like the oceans, we
Em               C                   Am  Em
  Just keep on flicking through the stations, 'cause
Em             C              Am     Em
  If we don't post it does it hap - pen?
                Em   C       Am  Em
  Oh I wanna be fr - ee of this


[Pre-Chorus]
             C              D     Em
Have you and I been sleepwalking way too long?
               C             D  Em
Won't someone pour ice water on me?


[Chorus]
         D             G    C
It only matters if we care now,
           D          Em
If you're way beyond that
     C                   Am          Em
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders
         D              G     C
And I remember when we cared now,
           D          Em
If you're way beyond that
     C                   Am          Em           D
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders, my shoulders


[Verse 3]
Em            C          Am    Em
  Movies and news on televi - sion
Em                C                Am    Em
  Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference, oh
Em                  C                   Am    Em
  When real life's more fucked up than fic - tion
                  Em   C       Am  Em
  Do you wanna be fr - ee of this?


[Pre-Chorus]
             C              D     Em
Have you and I been sleepwalking way too long?
               C             D  Em
Won't someone pour ice water on me?


[Chorus]
         D             G    C
It only matters if we care now,
           D          Em
If you're way beyond that
     C                   Am          Em
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders
         D              G     C
And I remember when we cared now,
           D          Em
If you're way beyond that
     C                   Am          Em
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders


[Bridge]
         D          G             D
I don't wanna play dumb, dumb anymore
                    Em               C
I just wanna feel something, like before
                    G             D
I don't wanna feel numb, numb anymore
              Em                C   D
I just wanna something, like before


[Chorus]
                       G    C
It only matters if we care now,
           D          Em
If you're way beyond that
     C                   Am          Em
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders
         D              G     C
And I remember when we cared now,
           D          Em
If you're way beyond that
     C                   Am          Em           D
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders, my shoulders


[Spoken]
G                             C                       D
("Television viewers have the choice of watching the tragedy play out
         Em                            C           Am
from the seating and comfort of their living rooms
           Em                            D                        G        C
But victims have to respond to the pressure of the media while still in shock")


[Ending]
           D          Em
If you're way beyond that
     C                   Am          Em            D
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders, my shoulders
