INTRO
Cm \ 2x
Eb /
VERSE 1
Cm
Keep tossing quarters in a Chinese fountain
Eb
A whole bunch of wishes unanswered, but who's counting
Cm
1, 2, 3, 9 chicks left me brokenhearted
Eb
I was a pretty boy, till love left me scarred
Cm
There's something going around, can't put my finger in
Eb
Like bigger fish are going to shoot out of the earth like diamonds
CHORUS
F Cm
We are the miners of another generation
Ab Eb
Hills scraped dry with no choice but be creative
F Cm
Everybody sick and tired of waiting
Ab Eb
Couldn't get any harder to be patient

VERSE 2
Cm
Is techno so shitty, even disco seems punk
Eb
Like the water so filthy, it's no wonder why we're drunk
Cm
Every little kid wants a computer in his pocket
Eb
The trophies on the mantels of the digital profits
Cm
The internet is bigger than Jesus and John Lennon
Eb
And nobody wants to know where we're heading
CHORUS
F Cm
We are the miners of another generation
Ab Eb
Hills scraped dry with no choice but be creative

Everybody sick and tired of waiting
Ab Eb
Couldn't get any harder to be patient
