Guitar chords with lyrics

  • Capo on 4th
  • Difficulty: Beginner
Key: E

Intro:

C*


Verse 1:
     C      F
Will all promises be kept?
    G       Am
Will we all be better off?
     F        C
I get the notion we won't know
     G       C
Until the ketamine wears off
           F
I looked up and to my left and saw
 G     Am
A canopy of greed
 G   F      C
I do not need to be unburdened
    G        C
I just need someone to lead
🎸

Pre-Chorus:
     Am      C
And if it looks a bit familiar
    G       Am
Like it did the other time
   G    F        C
They say that history don't repeat itself
  G      C
No, history just rhymes


Chorus:
      F
The river's deep
      C
The river's wide
     G                        Am
And there ain't no way across it 'cept to swim or sink and die
      F
The way is long
      C
The path is mеan
    G                           Am
I ain't got none of my friends left, thеy all vanished in the stream
    F       C           G        C
I ain't got none of my friends left, they all vanished in the stream


Verse 2:
C              F
When the black cat with his chainsaw
     G       C
Picked a child from his litter
G/B Am       F
To remind us he's a man
    G       C
I'll admit I did feel bitter
           F
And I wondered if the jester knew
   G       C
That he's in on the joke
   G/B     Am        F
Some folks don't ask whats in the wagon
     G         C
They just grin and bear the yoke


Pre-Chorus:
     Am      C
And if it looks a bit familiar
    G       Am
Like it did the other time
   G    F        C
They say that history don't repeat itself
  G      C
No, history just rhymes


Chorus:
      F
The river's deep
      C
The river's wide
     G                        Am
And there ain't no way across it 'cept to swim or sink and die
      F
The way is long
      C
The path is mеan
    G                           Am
I ain't got none of my friends left, thеy all vanished in the stream
    F       C           G        C
I ain't got none of my friends left, they all vanished in the stream

Verse 3:
C            F
When they pave over the bodies
   G       Am
And democratize the stones
    F       C
I will leave a Yelp review
    G       C
In the valley of the bones
              F
When the thirsty get their blood
      G        Am
And all the people's souls departed
     F       C
They can raise the holy swollen
    G       Am
Golden temple of the arches
G       C
Onward history marches


Pre-Chorus:
     Am      C
And if it looks a bit familiar
    G       Am
Like it did the other time
   G    F        C
They say that history don't repeat itself
  G      C
No, history just rhymes


Chorus:
      F
The river's deep
      C
The river's wide
     G                        Am
And there ain't no way across it 'cept to swim or sink and die
      F
The way is long
      C
The path is mеan
    G                           Am
I ain't got none of my friends left, thеy all vanished in the stream
    F       C           G        C
I ain't got none of my friends left, they all vanished in the stream
