This is from a nice video found here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4ck4JSPBbM.
Ive tabbed the majority of it, if you need any help working out the other nuances send
a message. (assuming what follows is all correct in the first place).
I appreciate any suggestions/improvements and would love it if you point out any mistakes.
Cheers

Why is my back sore

What did grandad die for
Why are there armies and who's on our side
Where does the sun rise and where does it hide

Safety in numbers my friend
And then straight back into the intro and repeat the whole thing.
Picked from a shelf
Sent on parade
40 hours weekly
To slave for a wage
To pick from shelf, send on parade
Children of fortune seek children of fame
Why is this yours
Why wasnt it mine
Why do the clocks keep on ticking off time
Why are there nightmares and who made my shoes
Why are there children shedding blood on the news
Back to bed you're dreaming again
Safety in numbers my friend
End on E
Peace
