                Am
Used to keep it cool
Used to be a fool
               C            Dm
All about the bounce in my step
                Am
Watch it on the news
Whatcha gonna do?
                C           Dm
I could hit refresh and forget
                 Am
Used to keep it cool

Should I keep it light?
Stay out of the fight?
No one’s gonna listen to me
If I write a song
Preaching what is wrong
Will they let me sing on TV?
Should I keep it light?
Is that right?

          Dm F
Is that right?

Chorus:
Am
Way up way up we go
C
Been up and down that road
Dm
Way up way up, oh no
F
We gon burn the whole house down
Am
Watch me stand in the line
C
You're only serving lies
Dm
You've got something to hide
F
We gon burn the whole house down

Yeah, used to let it go
Walk into the show
Gawking at the tricks up your sleeve
Too good to be truth-
Full, I’m in a room
Full of entertainers and thieves
Used to let it go
Woah, oh no
(Woah, oh no)

Chorus

         Am
Should I hang my head low?
          C
Should I bite my tongue?
             Dm
Or should I march with every stranger from
  F
Twitter to get shit done?
         Am
Used to hang my head low
       C
Now I hear it loud
        Dm                            F
Every stranger from Twitter is gonna burn this down

Chorus:
Way up way up we go
Been up and down that road
Way up way up, oh no
We gon’ burn the whole house down
Watch me stand in the line (whoa oh)
You’re only serving lies (yeah)
You’ve got something to hide
We gon’ burn the whole house down
Woah oh, yeah
We gon’ burn the whole house down
We burn it down, we burn it down
We gon’ burn the whole house down
