[Verse 1]
A              G#        C#m
  Jot down the words you wanna say
E              A
Make sure they don't conflict

with mine in any way Make them
A            G#m        C#m
sound good Remember the laws
        E    A          G#

        C#m        E
it's my right to decide

A              G#       C#m
  Pretend your life is squeaky clean
E           A      G#
Pure as the virgin you think your
C#m             E              A
daughter is She laughs in your face
   G#              C#m        E
As you bring your speech to a close
    A              G#         C#m D#m E F#m
But she's doing it under your nose

     D                  A

[Verse 3]
A             G#        C#m
  You used to wear your pretty
        E             A
clothes Now that the scruff
             G#
is in you're left what you
C#m              E
used to know But here come
     A         G#        C#m
your rules The fashion police
    E      A
are in And suddenly your
G#           C#m       E
politics are changing again


[Verse 4]
A    G#       C#m
  Idolize and criticize
E         A
Push them in the right
G#           C#m
direction to paradise
E                A
Praise them with guilt
   G#           C#m
Distinguish the weak
          E
from the strong But
A
knowing that we
G#         C#m
end up the same
D#m    E    F#m
in the long run


[Chorus 2]
E              B
  I don't care who you wanna
     D                  A
pray to If it makes you happy
             E
then go ahead But you claim
    B
I'm wrong what gives you the
D                        A
right Just stick to your own life
