Verse 1:
G             D
 I'm breaking   and waiting
Em              C
  Watching your hands on the clock and I
G       D
 Wonder   if you see
Em  D     C
    How I feel
G                D
 You're shifting   and blaming
Em            C                    G
  Aiming your politics right in my neck
       D
Trying   to change
Em  D     C
    How I feel

Chorus:
  G                     D
I sing to the only home I've ever known
    Em         D         C
I'm asking her how we've come
   G                     D
To live in a nightmare, American-grown
      Em         D        C
Where we let the good die young
C          D       (G)
We let the good die young


Post-Chorus:
| G   | G   | D   | D   |
| Em  | Em  | C   | C   |


Verse 2:
G              D
 It's not just   the classrooms
Em               C                   G
  It's our congregations and concert lines
       D
Asking   if you see
Em  D        C
    How they feel
G              D
 And all those   barstools
Em           C                   G
  All of the children who ran to hide
            D
Are wishing   that you'd see
Em  D        C
    How they feel


Chorus:
  G                     D
I sing to the only home I've еver known
    Em                   C
I'm asking her how we'vе come
   G                     D
To live in a nightmare, American-grown
      Em         D        C
Where we let the good die young
        G                             D
They're shooting the stars and you're watching them fall
       Em         D        C
In the comfort of your own home
   G                       D
We live in the nightmare, American-grown
      Em         D        C
Where we let the good die young
      C          D        Am
Yeah, we let the good die young


Post-Chorus:
  C   Em
Oh, oh, oh
D                   Am
We let the good die young
  C   Em   D
Oh, oh, oh


Chorus:
     G                     D
So I sing to the only home I've ever known
Em                   C
Asking her how we've come
   G                     D
To live in a nightmare, American-grown
      Em         D        C
Where we let the good die young
      G                      D
Well, I've spoken up, but it wasn't enough
         Em         D        C
'Cause a son lost a father today
  G                       Am
A woman was gunned down today
G                          C
Tell me your heart doesn't break


Tag:
      G                         D
Don't send me your thoughts and prayers
       Em            D  C
'Cause they don't go anywhere
        C       D        G
When we let the good die young
