Left Behind

 D
When she asks me where I'm from
                                             G
I catch my tongue before saying I'm American
                       A#      A
It's getting embarrassing (It's getting embarrassing)
 D
Freedom's running up a fever

Change ain't nothing but a T-shirt
G
All my heroes need a rework
                   A#         A
Or they're in the freezer


[Pre-Chorus]
     F
I'm feeling
                                C
Like I don't have a reason to believe in
                 D             G
Lying on the pavement, they're leaving me behind

I'm bleeding out


[Chorus]
D
I don't wanna move on
                      C        G
But I don't wanna get left behind
D
I don't wanna move on
                      G         F
But I don't wanna gеt left behind
D
I wanna lead a gеneration
C                                  G
But the train's about to leave the station
D
I don't wanna move on
                       G       F
But I don't wanna get left behind

[Post-Chorus]
                       G
But I don't wanna get left behind


[Verse 2]
D
Maybe they would listen to me one time
C                 G
If I died on the frontline
     D
As a martyr in the bloodline
                             G
Instead, I'm singing in the sunshine
   F
Oh no, no, no
D
I talked to an old man, he said, "Listen, son

I, too, thought I'd start a revolution
G
If you don't die young, then you live to see
A#                           A
That which you fear is that which you become"


[Pre-Chorus]
    F
I'm feeling
                                C
Like I don't have a reason to believe in
                               G
Lying on the pavement, they're leaving me behind

I'm bleeding out


[Chorus]
D
I don't wanna move on
                      C        G
But I don't wanna get left behind
D
I don't wanna move on
                      G        F
But I don't wanna get left behind
D
I wanna lead a generation
C                                  G
But the train's about to leave the station
D
I don't wanna move on
                      G        F
But I don't wanna get left behind

[Post-Chorus]
                       G       F
But I don't wanna get left behind


[Pre-Chorus]
    C
I'm feeling
                               G
Like I don't have a reason to believe in
                                F
Lying on the pavement, they're leaving me behind
             D
I'm bleeding out
    C
I'm grieving
                               G
But does any of this pain have meaning

Or is it all for nothing?
         F                              D
They're leaving me behind, I'm bleeding out


[Chorus]
D
I don't wanna move on
                      C        G
But I don't wanna get left behind (I don't wanna be left behind)
D
I don't wanna move on
                      G        F
But I don't wanna get left behind (I don't wanna be left behind)
D
I wanna lead a generation
C                                  G
But the train's about to leave the station
D
I don't wanna move on
                      G        F
But I don't wanna get left behind (I don't wanna be left behind)
