Title: Idiots Are Taking Over

Album: War on Errorism

Hey.

Besides the regular notes (/ = slide up, x = palm mute), there's a few more

extra special notes this time around.

1) This song is FAST. Really, really fast.

2) The ska part works just as well with downstrokes as upstrokes, but upstrokes

   are more ska-ish, plus they give you a warm fuzzy feeling that you're playing

   the song just right.

3) Some of these chords may look funny or be in weird places, but that's just

   how the song goes.

4) This is a very disorganized tab/chord sheet. I tried to make it clear, but it

   just didn't take. Sorry.

5) Any correction would be appreciated, that applies to the whole

   song. Thanks.

6) Want it to sound closer? Throw in a pick scrape and a scream at the end of

   any of the verses except for the ones leading into the ska part or the outro.

7) The Rhythm section below is for the verse only. The ska part is a different,

   more rhythmic sort of..... rhythm.

8) Sorry for the messiness.



Cheers!

F#5(8va)                      D5 

It's not the right time to be sober

A5                  D#aug

Now the idiots have taken over

D5                      B5         R1  

Spreading like a social cancer, is there an answer?



F#5(8va)            D5 

Mensa membership conceding

A5                  	        D#aug

Tell me why and how are all the stupid people breeding

D5                     B5 

Watson, it's really elementary

		 A5

The Industrial Revolution

                            F#5

Has flipped the bitch on evolution

	                                                                                 F5	                         D5                           A5

The benevolent and wise are being thwarted, ostracized, what a bummer

                        F#5

The world keeps getting dumber

                 F5           D5                     R1

Insensitivity is standard and faith is being fancied over reason



F#5(8va)                    D5

Darwin's rollin over in his coffin

A5                                  D#aug

The fittest are surviving much less often

D5                             B5           R1

Now everything seems to be the first thing, and it's worsening



F#5(8va)                         D5

Someone flopped a steamer in the gene pool

A5                           D#aug                          D5

Now angry mob mentality's no longer the exception, it's the rule

                          B5                A5

And I'm startin to feel a lot like Charlton Heston

                      F#5

Stranded on a primate planet

                         F5

Apes and orangutans that ran it to the ground

     D5                            A5

Were generals and the armies that obeyed them

                    F5

Followers following fables

                    F#5                        D5

Philosophies that enabled them to rule without regard





*play the ska chord A nine times*





F#min                                                    D

There's no point for democracy when ignorance is celebrated

A                                                           D                    

Political scientists get the same one vote as some Arkansas inbred

A                                        F#min

Majority rule, don't work in mental institutions

A                                                                F#5(8va)

Sometimes the smallest softest voice carries the grand biggest solutions!



            D5

What are we left with?

  A5                    D#aug           D5

A nation of god-fearing pregnant nationalists

                    B5                   A5

Who feel it's their duty to populate the homeland

           F#5

Pass on traditions

                   F5

How to get ahead religions

    D5

And prosperity via simpleton culture



A5                    F#5(8va)  

The idiots are takin' over

D5                      A5 

  The idiots are takin' over



(repeat 4x)
