Capo: 2nd fret
[Intro]
D Dsus4 D Dsus4
[Verse 1]
D Dsus4 D Dsus4
My generation's in a state, we're a nation in the gutter,
D Dsus4
pass the queue for the food bank every day.
D D
Would you get some bread and butter?
D G D G
I see a single mother signing on, just to keep her baby eating,
D G D G
while her teenage son shots gear to fund the lekky and the heating.
[Chorus]
Bm A D D
And people say: God only knows what we're trying for,
Bm A D Dsus4 D Dsus4
God only knows what we're dying for.
[Verse 2]
D G D G
I see the local lads who did smash-and-grabs on tag outside probation,
D G D G
I see the demonized and traumatized by social deprivation.
D G D G
It's too gentrified to attempt to die in thе block where life started
D G D G
'cause they regenerate every estate to cleanse the working classes.
[Chorus]
Bm A D D
And people say: God only knows what we're trying for,
Bm A D D
people say: God only knows what we're dying for.
Bm A D D
And people say: God only knows what we're trying for,
Bm A D D
God only knows what we're dying for.
[Bridge]
Em G Bm A
'Cause we are the dreamers and lo-vers
Em G Bm A A
with nothing to live for but one ano - ther.
[End-Chorus]
Bm A D Dsus4
God only knows what we're trying for,
Bm A D Dsus4
God only knows what we're dying for.
Bm A D Dsus4
God only knows what we're trying for,
Bm A D Dsus4
God only knows what we're dying for.
Bm A D Dsus4
God only knows what we're trying for,
Bm A D Dsus4
God only knows what we're dying for.
Bm A D Dsus4
God only knows what we're trying for,
Bm A D
God only knows what we're dying for.
[Verse 1]
My generation's in a state
We're a nation in the gutter
Pass the queue for the food bank every day
Would you get some bread and butter?
I see a single mother signing on
Just to keep her baby eating
While her teenage son shots gear to fund
The lekky and the heating
[Chorus]
And people say God only knows what we're trying for
God only knows what we're dying for
[Verse 2]
I see the local lads who did smash-and-grabs
On tag outside probation
I see the demonized and traumatized
By social deprivation
It's too gеntrified to attempt to die
In thе block where life started
'Cause they regenerate every estate
To cleanse the working classes
[Chorus]
And people say God only knows what we're trying for
People say God only knows what we're dying for
And people say God only knows what we're trying for
God only knows what we're dying for
[Bridge]
'Cause we are the dreamers and lovers
With nothing to live for but one another
[Outro]
God only knows what we're trying for
God only knows what we're dying for
God only knows what we're trying for
God only knows what we're dying for
God only knows what we're trying for
God only knows what we're dying for
God only knows what we're trying for
God only knows what we're dying for
