AmDm7
Yeah y'all, here we go
F7Am
Pumping the big noise in the 90's
[Instrumental]
AmDm7F7Am
[Verse 1]
AmDm7
Pardon me for living, but this is my world too
F7Am
I can't help that what's cool to us might be strange to you
AmDm7
Pardon me for breathing, can we borrow some of your air?
F7Am
The problem with you and your kind is that you don't know love is there
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm7G
Lay down your funky weapon, come join us on the floor
EE7
Making love and music's the only things worth fighting for
[Chorus]
AmDm7
We are the new power generation, we want to change the world
F7Am
The only thing that's in our way is you
AmDm7
Your old fashioned music, your old ideas
F7Am
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do
[Verse 2]
AmDm7
Pardon me for thinking, but there's something under my hair
F7Am
I bet you thought the lights were on but no one's living there
AmDm7
You think that if you tell enough lies they will see the truth?
F7Am
I hope they bury your old ideas the same time they bury you
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm7G
Lay down your funky weapon, come join us on the floor
EE7
Making love and music's the only things worth fighting for
[Chorus]
AmDm7
We are the new power generation, we want to change the world
F7Am
The only thing that's in our way is you
AmDm7
Your old fashioned music, your old ideas
F7Am
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do
[Interlude]
D#E
We are the new
AAsus4
We are the new, we are the new
DmAmDm
Making love and music
F7 E N.C.
New power, we stand
[Verse 3]
AmDm7
Pardon us for caring, we didn't know it was against the rules (shout it out)
F7Am
If we only want to love one another then tell me now who's the fool (tell me, tell me)
AmDm7
No father, no mother, no sister, no brother, nobody can make me stop
F7Am
Said if you didn't come to party child, I think you better get up of my block
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm7G
Lay down your funky weapon, come join us on the floor
EE7
Making love and music's the only things worth fighting for
[Chorus]
AmDm7
We are the new power generation, we want to change the world (yeah)
F7Am
The only thing that's in our way is you (you, you, you, you)
AmDm7
Your old fashioned music, your old ideas
F7Am
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do (why don't you just be happy, baby?)
AmDm
We are the new power generation, we want to change the world (Go on and get up off my block, uh)
F7Am
The only thing that's in our way is you (Get up off my block, because love is there)
AmDm7
Your old fashioned music, your old ideas (If you'd just open up to it)
F7Am
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do (If you'd just believe your whole world would change)
[Outro]
AmDm7F7Am
New power generation, you've got to rearrange
AmDm7F7
We are the new power generation, you've got to give up all the fight
Am
We got to try to love one another, baby
AmDm7F7Am
We are the new power generation
AmDm7F7Am
We are the new power generation
