Am                       Dm
Told we could be who we wanted
                C           E
Or get what we needed, hey yeah
Am                    Dm
One and the other competing
          C            E
Over the meaning, hey yeah

Chorus:
                         F
Back when I said that I want it all
                 C
This wasn't the point at all
                 Am          E
Hostile to that superficial view
                        F
Show me something that can't be bought
                   C
It's harder to do than I thought
             Am                 G
False dichotomy, no choice to choose
                        F
When you don't know if you should fall
                 C
If there'd be a net at all
                 Am       E
Pleasure gets so easily abused
                        F
Show me something that can't be bought
                   C
It's harder to do than I thought
             Am                 G
False dichotomy, no choice to choose

 Am Dm C  E
Hate Love
 Am Dm C  E
Hate Love

And when you don't want to chase it
But can't stand to waste it, hey yeah
It's either rags into riches
Or life in the trenches, hey yeah

Chorus:
Back when I said that I want it all
This wasn't the point at all
Hostile to that superficial view
Show me something that can't be bought
It's harder to do than I thought
False dichotomy, no choice to choose
When you don't know if you should fall
If there'd be a net at all
Pleasure gets so easily abused
Show me something that can't be bought
It's harder to do than I thought
False dichotomy, no choice to choose

  F   C      Am   E
Hate Love, (Hate Love)
  F   C      Am   E
Hate Love, (Hate Love)
  F   C     Am   E
Hate Love, Hate Love
  F   C     Am   E
Hate Love, Hate Love

 Am Dm C  E
Hate Love
 Am Dm C  E
Hate Love
 Am Dm C  E
Hate Love
 Am Dm C  E Am
Hate Love
