A Piece Of What You Need

	  		


Intro: F 

verse 1 

Is this what we really want 
Am 
Background music from a restaurant? 
D                               C  C7  F 
Spare me, it's doing in my head 

Drop-dead gorgeous teen 
Am 
Singing pages from her diary 
D                                 C  C7  G 
So bad, you'd kick her out of bed 

 
                            F 
Break down the stupid wall 

Stop doing what you're told 
C                                 G 
And don't believe a thing you see 
                           F 
Red light, drop that ball 

Stop getting everything you want 
C                                G   F 
And get a piece of what you need 



verse 2 

Life on the happy pills 
Am 
Counts on Pfizer to erase our ills 
     D                                 C  C7  F 
It's working, I'm feeling pretty blank 

So sing, sing, soulless boy 
Am 
Give us more of your simple joy 
     D                           C  C7 G 
It's soothing, money in the bank 

 
                            F 
Break down the stupid wall 

Stop doing what you're told 
C                                 G 
And don't believe a thing you see 
                           F 
Red light, drop that ball 

Stop getting everything you want 
C                                G   D 
And get a piece of what you need 



Bridge 

Oh, say can't you see 
      C 
We're kinda, sorta living free 
Eb           D 
Staring into space 
Eb             D 
Bye, bye human race

Break down the stupid wall 

Stop doing what we're told 
C                                 G 
And don't believe a thing you see 
                           F 
Red light, drop that ball 

Stop getting everything we want 
C                                G 
And get a piece of what you need
