178 BPM / Capo 2
VERSE
Dm Am
To those who call for uprising
C G
And bloodshed to begin
Am C G
Who holler that the system
must be torn down from within
BRIDGE
Em Am
If you want to drive out the dark
F G
Well stand up with light in your heart
CHORUS
C Am Em G
You're acting like it's Nineteen Eighty-Four - And you need a revolution
Screaming for a storm rage and a war - trying to tear down institutions
Preaching hate, liberate, anger bait nothing more - we're in need of resolution
You're acting like it's 1984
VERSE
An eye for an eye
Makes the whole world blind
With peace in your actions
There's peace in your mind
BRIDGE
If you want to drive out the dark
F G
Well stand up with light in your heart
CHORUS
MIDDLE
In the cacophony, I hear a single melody
So would you come along and sing this song with me?
We can use harmonies to sing of what we dream this little world could be
You can be mad, you can be angry
In this time where words are feeling so unheard
We write songs about our worries
Sing out loud to share our stories
In the hopes that someone near or far can hear our words and feel them in their heart
OUTRO
You're acting like it's Nineteen Eighty-Four - You want to tear down institutions
You're acting like it's Nineteen Eighty-Four - You want fight for dissolution
You're acting like it's Nineteen Eighty-Four - You want to dish out retribution
You're acting like it's Nineteen Eighty-Four - You're demanding prosecutions

You're acting like it's Nineteen Eighty-Four - And you need a revolution
Screaming for a storm rage and a war - trying to tear down institutions
