Verse 1: G Fmaj7 Have you heard the news today? Em C The bombs are dropped, the swamp is drained G Fmaj7 America is finally getting saved! Em C 11 million off of Medicaid G Fmaj7 Temperatures rise like interest rates Em C Built Auschwitz in the Everglades G Fmaj7 And sold merch at the front gate
Verse 2: G Fmaj7 They're starving, sick and sleep deprived Em C But they don't look like you or I G Fmaj7 Guess empathy don't cross state lines Em C In the great US of A G Fmaj7 The flag’s got no more blue or white Em C They sold the stars, we all wear stripes G Fmaj7 No need to read between the lines Em C When there's blood spilled on the page Pre-Chorus: G Fmaj7 Never again means not today Em C You gave the man your eyes G Fmaj7 So you could sleep at night Em C But you still hear their cries Chorus: G Fmaj7 You can't outrun this shame Em C This land was yours and mine G Fmaj7 Until they bled it dry Em C History won't be kind G Fmaj7 To those who turn the other way Bridge / Verse 3: G Fmaj7 Empathy becomes partisan Em C When rights get framed as politics G Fmaj7 Born-again republicans Em C Start ditching what their scripture says G Fmaj7 Hate thy neighbor, turn 'em in Em C And burn amendments five and ten G Fmaj7 The faithful bent the cross to fit Em C But heavy is the crown that sits Build: G Fmaj7 Atop his empty head Em C He'll only pledge allegiance G Fmaj7 To self-interest, to help the rich Em C Get rich at your expense G Fmaj7 While you absolve his sins Em C And your indifference G Fmaj7 Ain’t righteousness Em C It’s evil at its best G Fmaj7 Celebrate ignorance Em C And cheer and clap as the boot steps G Fmaj7 On your neck ‘til it snaps Chorus / Outro: G Fmaj7 You gave the man your eyes Em C So you could sleep at night G Fmaj7 But you still hear their cries Em C You can't outrun this shame G Fmaj7 This land was yours and mine Em C Until they bled it dry G Fmaj7 History won't be kind Em C To those who turned the other way Outro / Oohs: G Fmaj7 Em C Ooh ooh ooh, Ooh ooh ooh G Fmaj7 Em C Ooh ooooh, Can you hear them crying? G Fmaj7 Em C Ooh ooh ooh, Ooh ooh ooh G Fmaj7 Em C I still hear them crying .
