Standard (EADGBE)

This is what I want, I want all the punks to take to the streets

 playing their guitars

This is what I want

 It's what I want

This is what I want: Black kids and white kids sharing all the songs

 that their grandmamma's taught 'em

This is what I want

 It's what I want

 And we'll play 'em on our horns, we'll bang em on our drums,

 we'll play 'em on our guitars

 on our guitars

 Singing songs that our mothers sang to us when we were young,

 or songs that we may remember reading

Songs we heard a stranger sing or humming on the streets

Songs we made up yesterday, on the porch, in the rain on our guitars

 And we'll never sing a song we heard on your radio,

 or a song someone else was paid to write or sing

 and we'll never sing of sex or of the fakest kind of love,

 those songs will not be played on our guitars

 On our guitars On our guitars

 And we'll play em on our horns, we'll bang em on our drums,

 we'll play em on our guitars

 On our guitars
