A         E        A       A       E    D 
Once we were unobstructed, innocent at heart
 A     E            F#            D       E    A 
This world will slow confuse you, picking you apart
 A         E       A          A       E              D 
You know what we survive on just by knowing what you need
 A        E         F#           D      E         A 
You know hope and understanding is all we need to breathe


[Chorus]

        F#     E    A   F#    E     D 
Come on lay it down son, feel their arms
 A     E      F#     D      E      A 
Use a moral compass. I know who you are


[Verse]

 A        E       A          A         E       D 
So many written guidelines. The elders set in ways
 A        E                F#        D     E      A 
Wishful wanting of simple treasures. Not an angry cage
 A         E               A       A      E       D 
They will teach you to be fearful of all foreign to you
 A              E              F# 
But you were born with to panoramic views
 D       E         A 
In any shoes you choose


[Chorus]

           F#   E      A   F#  E      D 
So come on lay it down son, feel their arms
 A     E     F#       D     E        A 
Use a moral compass. If its feels wrong, it´s wrong


[Verse]

 A          E   A        A     E       D 
Those that we depend on to survive these days
 A           E        F#        D    E      A 
Monotheist, ancient grievance. Perpetuating hate
 A         E           A 
They will hand down their agendas
 A         E            D 
And they´ll train you when to care
 A        E      F# 
When all you wanted was to please them
    D     E       A 
As long as they were there


[Chorus]

        F#   E     A     F#  E     D 
Come on lay it down son, feel their arms
 A        E     F#     D     E     A 
Use your moral compass if it feels wrong


[Code]

 F#   E     A 
Lay it down son
 F#  E  D 
Hold on heart
       A         E     F#     D     E     A 
Always use your moral compass if it feels wrong
       A         E     F# 
Always use your moral compass
 D      E      A 
I know who you are
