[Intro]
D#m G# C# F#
Ooh, He - ey, oh
Cm B A#
What we're living in, let me tell ya
[Verse 1]
D#m G#
It's a wonder man can eat at all
C# F#
When things are big that should be small
Cm B
Who can tell what magic spells
A# D#m
Will be doing for us?
D#m G#
And I'm giving all my love to this world
C# F#
Only to be told
Cm B
I can't see, I can't breathe,
A# D#m – F#
no more will we be
G# C#
And nothing's going to change the way we live
F# Cm
Cos' we can always take but never give
B A#
An' now that things're changing for the worse, see.
D#m
Woah,
G# C#
It's a crazy world we're living in
F# Cm
And I just can't see that
B A# - Dm
Half of us immersed in sin is all we have to give these
[Chorus 1]
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Futures made of virtu - al insani - ty now
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Always seem to be governed by this love we have for
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Useless, twisting of the new techno - logy
B Dm D#m - F# G#m – A#
Oh, now there is no sound, for we all live under-ground
[Verse 2]
D#m G#
And I'm thinking what a mess we're in
C# F#
Hard to know where to begin
Cm B
If I could slip the sickly ties
A# - Dm D#m – F#
That earthly man has made
G# C# F# Cm
And now every mother can choose the colour
B A# – Dm D#m - F#
Of her child, that's not nature's way
G# C#
Well that's what they said yesterday
F# Cm
There's nothing left to do but pray
B A# - Dm D#m – F#
I think it's time I found a new religion, wo - ah,
G# C# F#
it's so insane to synthesize another strain
Cm B A# – Dm
There's something in these futures that we have to be told
[Chorus 2]
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Futures made of virtu - al insani - ty now
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Always seem to be governed by this love we have for
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Useless, twisting of the new techno - logy
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Oh, now there is no sound, for we all live under-ground
[Chorus 3]
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Now there is no sound if we all live underground
B Dm
And now it's virtual insanity
D#m - F# G#m - A#
Forget your virtual real - ity
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Oh, there's nothing so bad. I know ye - ah
D#m G# C# F# Cm B A#
D#m G# C# F# Cm B A#
[Chorus 4]
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Futures made of virtu - al insani - ty now
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Always seem to be governed by this love we have for
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Useless, twisting of the new techno - logy
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Oh, now there is no sound, for we all live under-ground
[Chorus 5]
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Living, virtu - al insani – ty
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Living, virtu - al insani – ty
B Dm D#m - F# G#m - A#
Living, virtu - al insani – ty
