VERSE 1:
F#Burn a candle set a light
keep on going against the stream
F#be as mean as mean can be
F#as long as you're not too extreme
read the papers watch the news
F#be informed and get the blues
F#collect your garbage use the subway
swaying you stay on the roof
VERSE 2:
F#Search for solutions for the future
find resources drill for oil
F#raise some powerplants and then
F#burry them under the soil
Rome is burning the emperor sings
F#waiting for what time may bring
F#his body caressed by the virgins
laughing shy he turns around
And spits into the fire
and hopes that he can calm it down
Afights the flames with words
D'cause they're cheaper than water
thinking he can heal the world
Dbut the only thing he really does
Bis sitting on a sofa
and spit into the fire
VERSE 3:
F#Rabbits running on the green
and jump directly in your pan
F#turtles transform into soup
F# Benjoy them as long as you can
VERSE 4:
F#Silent sitting writing songs
F#'bout all the idiots that pretend
that their words can change the world
F# BI think I'm right but in the end
I spit into the fire
and hope that I can calm it down
Afight the flames with words
D'cause they're cheaper than water
thinking I can heal the world
Dbut the only thing I really do
Bis sitting on the sofa
and spit into the fire
OUTRO:
F# Aand spit into the fire (spit into spit into)
spit into it (spit into spit into)
F#and hope that I can calm it down
Afight the flames with words
'cause they're cheaper than water
B5thinking I can heal the world
Dbut the only thing I really do
is sitting on the sofa and spit into the fire
Bm Dis sitting on the sofa and spit into the fire
Bm Bis sitting on the sofa and spit into the fire
spit into it...

During the verses, the acoustic rhythm guitar plays the F# superimposing
the most dominant notes of the above melody line. I didn't bother writing
it all out, it is a lot easier just to try it out. It kind of falls into
place after a few tries
