[Intro]

C F


[Verse 1]

  C
I found a picture of my mother
in her bell-bottom jeans
F
flowers in her hair two
fingers up for peace
        C
In that Polaroid she
smiled A grown up baby boomer
      F
Maybe momma walked down
the wild side
walking on the moon
Dm        G              C
What will they say about us


[Verse 2]

            C
I’ve heard stories about my grandpa
child of the great depression
    F
how growing up broke creates
and deep and dark impression

   C
He sits in a rocker
down at the veterans home
     F
even when I got to visit
he still rocking all alone
Dm             G         C
What will they say about us


[Chorus 1]

             F
they call us generation lost or
generation greed or they
   C/E
connect the generation
to a plasma screen or a
Bb              Am
generation why enough

is not enough
   Dm    C/E
Or maybe they’ll
     G             C    F
call us generation love
           C   F
Generation love


[Verse 2]

       C
We are children of divorce
Victims of dysfunction
    F
We spell check of course
And gps the proper junction
       C
We got it “pretty good”
Shifting all the blame
      F
But I think I hear an old song
Calling my new name
Dm  G      C
Generation love

[Chorus 2]

    F
not generation lost or
generation greed or they
   C/E
connect the generation
to a plasma screen or a
Bb              Am
generation why enough
is not enough
   Dm    C/E
Or maybe they’ll
     G             C    F
call us generation love


[Bridge]

C/E F Am      G          C/E F
        Ohhhh generation love
Am G
    and when they’ve
C/E       F
open up a time capsule
  Am                 G
a hundred years from now
C/E           F
Maybe they’ll look inside
    Am             G
And see we figured out
C/E         F
how to live less and
Am              G
give ourselves away
C/E     F     Am           G
   just maybe they’ll call us
C/E     F     Am           G
   just maybe they’ll call us
           C/E F
Generation love
Am G         C/E F Am G
