Send My Love To The System

  G
I've been looking through some pictures
That I found in my room
      C
Time machines take you back
To the places you once knew
       D
And I remember all the things
that I used to care about
      C
And I realised that they faded
They don't matter to me now

         G
They are moments in a lifetime which I'll never understand
       C
Just a glance across the room
A cigarette burn on my hand
        D
Just a second conversation on a sunday afternoon
     C
Or a kiss on a bridge
After it's been raining in June

    Em
And maybe I got older
    C
And maybe I can't see
                              D
Or maybe I just realised that I want to be free

                        C
So send my love to the system
                      G
Send my love to the system

     G
Well Playgrounds look like prisons the day after you leave school
    C
And exes look like angels
The day before they fall
         D
You get caught up with the rose
tinted glasses on the wall
          C
And you remember what they look like
But now what they were called

              G
And they will steal away your smile
Some autumn monday morning
          C
They will hate you
And they will rate you
And they will punish you without warning
         D
And you search for signs of goodness
And you search for signs of life
             C
Till you're standing on a stage
And you're blinded by the lights

     Em
And maybe I got scared
     C
And gave in to the disease
                               D
Or maybe I just realised that I want to be free

                         C
So send my love to the system
                      G
Send my love to the system

            G
Where the morning's slowly coming
As the pictures gathered dust
         C
As the light dances with chemicals
But there is no need to rush
          D
We just sit here for a while
Till we're ready to go back
               C
We stick our fingers up in times
Till the horizon is getting fat

            G
But I will take something with me
Which I could never found
             C
If I'd have carried on going forwards
In those directions we are bound
      D
So I thank you little photograph
For giving me a sign
         C
Now I think I'll have to burn you
Just in case you change your mind

     Em
And maybe I got older
     C
And gave up all my dreams
                              D
Or maybe I just realised that I want to be free

                          C
So send my love to the system
                       G
Send my love to the system

           G
We're not leaving any doorways
We're not losing any speed
       C
But if we die tomorrow
At least we got what we need
  D
And you can carry on
No I'm not judging you at all
        C
Takes us all different times
To recover from school

       G
If you ever get your empire
I'm sure I'll shake your hand
       C
But I think I'll be content
Drawing pictures in the sand
       D
And as for all these photographs lying on the floor
        C
Yes, I'll burn them in the morning
'Cause I don't need them anymore

     Em
And maybe I will miss them
     C
In Time we will see
                                  D
But I think I just realise that I want to be free

                         C
So send my love to the system
                      G
Send my love to the system
                      C
Send my love to the system
                      G
Send my love to the system
