Gen-X Cops

Capo 5th fret


Intro
Em  G  C
Em  G  C
Em  F  G  Am
G   F  C


Verse 1
Em             G                   C
   Blacken the sky and sharpen the axe
Em         G                  C
   Forever cursed to live unrelaxed
Em            F        G              Am
   We make no bones, a house is not a home
      G                      F C
And a home is nowhere we can stay


Verse 2
Em            G                         C
   Dodged the draft but can't dodge the war
Em         G                  C
   Forever cursed to live insecure
Em             F        G             Am
   The curtain drops, a gang of Gen X cops assembles
G                          F C
Trembling before our human nature


Chorus 1
Dm                     C
   It wasn't built for me
Dm      Am        G
   It's your academy
F           C         G                Am
  But in my time, you taught me how to see
G                           F        C
  Each generation makes its own apology

Em  G  C
Em  G  C
Em  F  G  Am
G   F  C


Verse 3
Em         G               C
   Welcome back, my oldest friend
Em         G                 C
   Are you cursed to depart again?
Em               F       G          Am
   Your ways and means, eternally obscene
           G                         F C
And always looking for obscenity and hatred


Chorus 2
Dm                     C
   It wasn't built for me
Dm      Am        G
   It's your academy
F           C         G                Am
  But in my time, you taught me how to see
G                           F        C
  Each generation makes its own apology

Em  G  C
Em  G  C
Em  F  G  Am
G   F  C


Outro
Dm                     C
   It wasn't built for me
Dm      Am        G
   It's your academy
F           C         G                Am
  But in my time, you taught me how to see
G                           F        C
  Each generation makes its own apology
F                    G            Am
  It's by design and consequentially
G                           F        C
  Each generation makes its own apology
