Lyrics

I walked for miles
So I could be
I climbed a mountain 
Just so I could see
I searched for courage
I searched for proof
Looked for a leader
Who'd stand and speak the truth

But there was none
And we still think we're so free

I lit a fire to watch it burn
Went on vacation never to return
Its not the way I wanted it to be 
I was afraid for my own privacy

Til' there was none
And we still think we're so free

When do you think we'll wake up x2
When do you think we'll wake up x2

I want a car
A steady job
An endless line of people I can rob
Ain't that the way that it's supposed to be 
There's less for them
That means so much more for me (too)

There was none
And we still think we're so free

When do you think we'll wake up x2

When do you think we'll wake up x2

G C S B

I walked for miles
So I could be
I climbed a mountain 
Just so I could see
I searched for courage
I searched for proof
Look for a leader
Who'd stand and speak the truth

When do you think we'll wake up x2

When do you think we'll wake up x2

Tabs

Guitar

This is in some sort of low A tuning, and I have no idea whether they're still using 6 string guitars or if they're using 7s now. For the sake of 
simplicity, I tabbed this in 7 string drop A. It doesn't change the notes, obviously.
