Eliza Gilkyson - The Great Correction


CAPO: 4th Fret


INTRO: C majorC G+G FF C majorC FF C majorC G+G

C majorC             G+G
Down here on the corner of ruin and grace
FF            C majorC
I'm growing weary of the human race
FF         C majorC
Hold my lamp up in everyone's face
  G+G
I'm looking for an honest man

C majorC          G+G
Everyone tied to the turning wheel
FF            C majorC
Everyone hiding from the things they feel
     FF            C majorC
When the truth's so hard, it just don't seem real
  G+G         C majorC
The shadow across this land


C majorC            G+G
People 'round here don't know what it means
  FF              C majorC
To suffer at the hands of our American dreams
   FF            C majorC
They turn their backs on the grisly scenes
  G+G
Traced to the privileged sons


   C majorC          G+G
They got their god, they got their guns
FF            C majorC
Got their armies and the chosen ones
     FF           C majorC
But we'll all be burning in the same big sun
     G+G        C majorC   FF C majorC DmDm
When the great correction comes


CHORUS:
             E minorEm         DmDm
Down through the ages, lovers of the mystery
                     C majorC    DmDm
Been saying, "People, let your love light shine"
         E minorEm          FF
Poets and sages all throughout history
                     G+G   FF E minorEm DmDm
Say the light burns brightest in the darkest times

     C majorC        G+G
It's the bitter end we've come down to
  FF             C majorC
The eye of the needle that we gotta get through
    FF             C majorC
But the end could be the start of something new
     G+G        C majorC
When the great correction comes

CHORUS:
             E minorEm         DmDm
Down through the ages, lovers of the mystery
                     C majorC     DmDm
Been saying, "People, let your love light shine"
         E minorEm          FF
Poets and sages all throughout history
                    G+G    FF E minorEm G+G
Say the light burns brightest in the darkest times


C majorC        G+G
Down to the wire running out of time
FF           C majorC
Still got hope in this heart of mine
  FF            C majorC
But the future waits on the horizon line
    G+G
For our daughters and our sons


C majorC         G+G
I don't know where this train's bound
FF              C majorC
Whole lotta people trying to turn it around
   FF             C majorC
Gonna shout 'til the walls come tumbling down
    G+G        C majorC   G+G FF C majorC FF
And the great correction comes
   C majorC
Don't let me down
     G+G        C majorC
When the great correction comes
