Standard (EADGBE)

Living your life in the gray

 Is the new American way

 We're spending what we haven't made

 And we save our money in good faith

 And we work hard for our living wage

 But still the banks gotta break

 'Cause the dream's a lie

 And the snake, it bit you

When you were awake

 And the books all fried

 You are bankrupting

 Because all the loans you take

Big wave, do do do

Big wave, do do do

Big wave

 It's going to hit you with a big wave

 I can't sleep these days

 And my blues, they won't go away

 So there are these little pills I been takin'

 And my doctor, she says that they're safe

 But I been sleepwalking down to the lake

 And wakin' up in the water

 And the feeling's a lie

 But the snake, it bit me

When I wasn't awake

 And the scripts, they lie

 I have been poisoned from

All the things I take

Big wave, do do do

Big wave, do do do

Big wave

It's gonna hit me with a big wave

Big wave, do do do

Big wave, do do do

Big wave

 It's gonna hit you with a big wave

I know you feel deprived

(You don't trust me)

All of us still alive

(You never touch me)

It's really just that I don't feel

 Like it much these days

 And my love's a lie

 'Cause the snake, he visits me

When you are away

 And your dreams don't lie

 I have been corrupted

'Cause all the lovers I take

Big wave, do do do

Big wave, do do do

Big wave

 You're gonna hit me with a big wave

Big wave, do do do

Big wave, do do do

Big wave

 It's gonna hit you with a big wave

Big wave, da da da

Big wave, do do do

Big wave

 It's gonna hit you with a big wave

 End on .
