Chords with lyrics
Intro: Dm Dm Dm Dm (No Lyrics) Verse 1: Dm Let's start with hope Dm I threw in the middle like a skipping stone Dm Dm The ripples won, son of a gun Dm Some would not have thought so A A7 But I stand here commander in chief. Dm And I take that seriously Verse 2: Dm But along the way Dm A rogue ripple turned tidal wave Dm Dm In reaction to, what I tried to do Dm A rebirth of a nation's hatred A A7 Red, white, and blue. Is black in there too? Dm Seriously? Dm Bridge 1: F One man A Rewriting the book on bad behavior Dm Maybe cheats the neighbors A# Feels he gets what they payed for F We can't A Pat him on the back and send him on through, Dm A# No man's ignorance will ever be his virtue A Is this best we can be? A7 Dm Seriously? Verse 3: Dm Let's talk of fear Dm And why I don't bring it in here Dm Dm It's a dangerous word, it spooks the heard Dm And we all bleed in the stampede A A7 Fear makes a false friend indeed Dm And I take it seriously Pre-bridge: Dm But hear me now, Dm Before the truth gets drowned out Dm By a demagogue flexing Dm A demagogue flexing A A7 He's history repeating Bridge 2: F Angry? A Am I angry? Dm You ask if I'm angry. A# And I'm at a loss for words F After all we've done, A Every battle hard one, Dm Every hair gone gray A# In this name of this place F In a history plagued A With in-credible mistakes Dm Still I pledge my allegiance to these A A7 U-nited Divided States Dm Seriously? Dm Verse 4: Dm Let's end with why Dm It's a question I Dm Dm Want to ask of us, as a populace Dm Why not take our time A A7 Or the weight of the story... N.C. ...Seriously
