This is an acoustic version I downloaded from the BRMC forum pages somewhere
and search around. Love these guys, their hard stuff and acoustic stuff.
Because this is the acoustic version, it does not fit with the album version, but I love
version anyway.

LYRICS (may not be totally accurate):
VERSE:
I spit my faith on the city pavement?
To keep a smile?
I bought my legs from the US Government
To keep me in line??
CHORUS:
We are the ones that keep you down
?We are the ones that warm the ground
?While our arms surround
VERSE:
??I filled my head with another replacement?
To keep me high
?I shot my soul when you wanted to take it?
Your worst ain't mine
CHORUS:
?We are the ones that keep you high
?We are the ones that warm the sky?
And you're burning bright
INTRO:
Ooh
VERSE:
?She's my river of sunshine she's my girl?
(She's my girl)
She can save the US and save the world
(Save the world)
CHORUS:
?She's alright I'll be fine?
There's no US save your mind
?Save your mind
VERSE:
??I'll give you nothing if you're just gonna waste it
?But that's alright?
I'll give you love if you wanting the taste that?
That leaves it behind??
CHORUS:
We are the ones that keep you high
?We are the ones that burn your pride?
And you're burning bright
INTRO:
??Ooh?
BRIDGE:
?I've been waiting for the sun to come
?Lead me through the gates of Rome
You're gonna know they were never
?Never yours to kill
(x2)
I've been waiting for the sun to come?
Surely I must be undone
You're gonna know they were never
?Never yours to kill
OUTRO:
Am (mix in some hammers to Asus4)
