[Verse 1]
Dm
If there's a God
Is he proud? Are we proud?
Am
Guess we forgot how to live a life with no filter
C
Making boring people famous
Let's pretend they're fascinating
Dm
Let's tell little girls that pretty girls are better
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm Am
We're in some trouble
C
Mr. Maker, don't turn away from your screen
D Dm
At least the bubble that we've created could make for some good TV
[Chorus]
F
Oh, Mr. Man Upstairs
Am C
I know you're tuning in up there, way up there
G
Would you care to answer my question?
F Am
Oh, the land of poor taste
C
The spectacle of cut and paste that we've made
G
Would you say, please say it was worth the
Am
seven days
Does he hang his head at all the greed that we possess?
C D
As the anti-social media perpetuates the mess
Stressed like the rest of us, it happens to the best of us
Am
God, or is it Mr. G to me?
I hope that through the static, you’ll show us the clarity
Dm
'Cause it's hard to find the silver lining in the bittersweet
Wonder if you're praying for us 'fore you go to sleep
G
Do you sleep in peace?
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
'Cause we're in some trouble
C
Mr. Maker, but don't turn away from your screen
Dm
At least the bubble that we've created has made for damn good TV
[Chorus]
F
Oh, Mr. Man Upstairs
Am C
I know you're tuning in up there, way up there
G
Would you care to answer my question?
F
Oh, the land of poor taste
Am C
The spectacle of cut and paste that we've made
G
Would you say, please say it was worth the
Dm
seven days
[Bridge]
F
Don't touch the remote, we'll be back in a moment
E
We are not hopeless, we are just coping
Am
The mayhem is rolling, but it ain't showbiz
F
Reality's potent, chaotic, I know it
Dm
But we're growing, have some hope in us
E E7
And were we worth all the time you gave up?
[Chorus]
E
Oh, Mr. Man Upstairs
Am C
I know you're tuning in up there, way up there
G
Would you care to answer my question?
F
Oh, the land of poor taste
Am C
The spectacle of cut and paste that we've made
G
Would you say, please say it was worth the
F
seven days
Am
Yeah,
C
oh,
G
oh
F Am C
