Here is a song called For Pat. Written by Anti-Flag's Justin Sane in his solo
album , Life, Love, And the Pursuit of Justice.
The lyrics are great, the chords are kinda the same all over the song...
I feel like this should be an acoustic song, even though Justin did it overdriven-
electric-guitar way. Which si kinda fun too with that song on an acoustic guitar
is that with a capo on first, it because an very easy open-chords song.

Still, Justin Sane's last meal before he recorded that song wasn't necessarily
made by Justin Sane himself. An d he probably doesn't remember anyway. It's kinda
sad we'll never know...
[A#]Walking these streets all by myself[D#][A#]
I don't care[D#] about anybody [A#]else[F]
'Cause someti[A#]mes don't you know that I just f[D#]eel that w[A#]ay
And sometimes I'm[D#] just so ready to strike [F]out![A#]
And the people [F]sit and stare
From their main str[D#]eet terraces[A#]
And coffe[D#]e shops as [A#]I pass b[F]y
But they n[A#]ever say "Hello"
'cause they could [D#]never under[A#]stand
All the f[D#]oreign concepts [F]in my m[A#]ind
N/C A# D# A#
You see I'm thinking of a world
Where [D#]people stop and think for t[F]hemselves
And I'm thinking[A#] of a world,[D#][A#]
Where people wo[D#]uldn't fuck you for money[F]
And I know,[A#5]
it's just a dream,[A#5/A]
But it's one [G5]I won't let go
'cause I'm s[G5/F]o tired of getting fucked[D#]
By you and you,[F]
And you and you...[A#][D#][F]
A# D#///F xxxxx F
[A#]Priorities prioritized in sickenin[D#]g ways[A#]
By the capita[D#]list pushers [A#]of the world[F]
As the yuppi[A#]es and the bankers of this neighbourhood[D#][A#]
Drive in F.U.V[D#]'s to[F] work[A#]
And I think[A#] to myself,
"Wh[D#]at a succes[A#]s these 'exc[D#]ess junkies' a[A#]re!"[F]
And I'm sure t[A#]he homeless and those with no h[D#]ealth
[A#]Care would surely[D#] conc[F]ur[A#]
N/C A# D# A#
You see I'm thinking of a world
Where people st[D#]op and think for themselves[F]
And I'm thinking[A#] of a world,[D#][A#]
Where people wo[D#]uldn't F you for money[F]
And I know,[A#5]
it's just a dream,[A#5/A]
But it's one [G5]I won't let go
'cause I'm s[G5/F]o tired of getting fucked[D#]
By those of you... who [F]
[A#]Protect the[D#]ir con[F]science,
[A#]By s[D#]aying that it's only business[F]
[A#]Prot[D#]ect your con[F]science,
[A#]By s[D#]aying that is just the way it[F] is
Because it's not th[D#]e way it [D]has to fuc[C]kin' be[A]! [A#]
Have fun!
