  Empty causes

  by Bad Religion from

  the Grey Race Album

  

  1st verse:

  

  [C]Everywhere you [G]looked there was [Am]confusion, violence,

  [Em]drama and [F]dru[G]gs 

  [C]So many rigtheous [G]revolutionaries [Am]spouting 

  [Em]utopian [F]love

  [E]Everyone shouted in purple[Am]haze 

  Then one [E]day they woke up from their dream [Am]state

  They found [G#]themselves no more at peace then [D#]before 

  Older, meek and con[G]formed

  

  Chorus 1:

  

  [C]Em[G]pty [Am]causes[Em]

  A [F]bluster for the soul, a [G]fix for the mind

  [C]Em[G]pty [Am]causes[Em] 

  [F]Cling to every[G]thing you [C]find[G]

  

  2nd verse:

  

  [C]Well, the shots rang out like [G]popcorn and the  [Am]chief was hit

  and [Em]rushed out of [F]si[G]te 

  [C]The mohawk-chained, [G]leather brigade re[Am]joiced malicious[Em]ly

  on that [F]night [E]Someone cried out "Fuck the govern[Am]ment"

  [E]His mates couldn't define what he [Am]meant 

  So no [G#]one gave him the time of  [D#]day And the scene died a[G]way

  

  Chorus 2:

  

  [C]Em[G]pty [Am]causes[Em]

  A [F]war for the body, an [G]army in the mind

  [C]Em[G]pty [Am]causes[Em]

  [F]Losing steam as [G]time goes by[C]

  

  Bridge:

  

  [F]Could it be that [G]everybody [C]selfish[B]ly de[Am]sires their[G#]

  own personal [D#]reti[A#]nue?

  And the [F]causes are  [G]just manifesta[C]tions of  [B]too much [Am]time

  and [G#]far too little to[D#]do[G] 

  

  (Guitar solo in C major)

  

  Chorus 3:

  

  [C]Em[G]pty  [Am]causes[Em]

  [F]Direction for the soul, [G]conviction for the mind

  [C]Em[G]pty  [Am]causes[Em]

  [F]Cling to it all[G] everything you find

  [C]Em[G]pty  [Am]causes[Em]

  A [F]war for the body, an [G]army in the mind

  [C]Em[G]pty  [Am]causes[Em]

  [F]You've got yours and [G]I've got mi[C][G][Am][Em][F][G]ne

  

  

  [F(VIII)]Aah aah [F(I)]aah aah [C]aah
