[Verse] 
[Am7] Hey kids, [D] shake it loose together

So stick a [Em] round ...........

Solid walls of [C] sound

[Verse] 
Hey [Am7] kids, [D] plug into the faithless
Maybe [G] they're blinded
But Bennie [E7/G#] makes them ageless
We [Am7] shall sur [D] vive, let us 
take ourselves a [Em] long
Where we [Am] fight our parents out in the [Bm] streets
To find who's right and who's [C] wrong
