<i></i> Am Am
I cut my teeth, on the back of an old church pew
Am Am
I learned to walk in the ways of light and truth
D Am F G
And I was told not to speak til I was spoken to
Am Am
I heard it preached, what I should and I should not do
And the choir sang
Am C Dm Am Am C Dm Am
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh
Am Am
I tried to be a good boy but I ain't a boy no more
Am Am
I've seen some things that a man just can't ignore
D Am F G
And this world's gone see what I am standing for
Am Dm G
I've kept my peace, I can't hold my tongue anymore
Am C
You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice
Dm Am Em
You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise
Am C
Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth
Dm F
But there's a time to speak and the time is now
Am C Dm Am Am C Dm Am
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh
Am Am
The squeaky wheel is always getting greased
Am Am
I've been sitting still, Park here on the side of the street
D A F G
Always tip-toeing trying not to wake the beast
Am G
Oh but here I come, All you monsters had better run from me
Am C
You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice
D Am Em
You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise
Am C
Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth
Dm F G
But there's a time to speak and the time is now
F G (Not exactly sure here)
Ooh It's the time and the time is now
Am C Dm Am Am C Dm Am
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh
(Chorus x2)
Am C Dm Am Am C Dm Am
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh
Am C Dm Am Am C Dm Am
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohh
