Verse:
E MajorE              A7A7    E MajorE
the foundation shakes as the dominoes fall
              B7B7
the pocekts are emplty the shelters are full
  E MajorE        E7E7     A7A7     A minorAm
and the prices keep rising in spite of it all
   E MajorE      B7B7    E MajorE
in a prison where no one is lookin'

E MajorE               A7A7    E MajorE
philosophies fly from both sides of the fence
              B7B7
the light at the end of the tunnel grows dim
    E MajorE      E7E7      A7A7     A minorAm
all the pieces are placed for a war we can't win
E MajorE           A7A7     E MajorE
where the problem out runs the solution

Chorus:

A7A7                         E MajorE
so you better save you better save your tears moma don't you cry
    B7B7                    E MajorE
beaucse where there's smoke there's fire and the waters running dry
       A7A7             E MajorE
while politicains funnel money with the wink of an eye
      B7B7      A7A7    E MajorE
we're goin hungry in the breadline tongiht


Verse:
E MajorE              A7A7     E MajorE
the entrepenuers claw their way to the top
               B7B7
the squatters all pan handle down on thier luck
E MajorE        E7E7        A7A7  A minorAm
everybody wants more and that's never enough
E MajorE          B7B7   E MajorE
we forget what we've got to begin with

E MajorE               A7A7     E MajorE
the bankers count coins under blankets of gold
               B7B7
consumers complain while they buy what their sold
    E MajorE    E7E7        A7A7    A minorAm
and the titanic sails where the snake oil flows
    E MajorE       A7A7    E MajorE
and the sharks circle under the surface

Chorus:
A7A7                         E MajorE

    B7B7                    E MajorE
beaucse where there's smoke there's fire and the waters running dry
       A7A7           E MajorE
while politicains guzzle 100 dollar bottles of wine

Verse:
E MajorE                A7A7      E MajorE
I've see nhighways of people all filled up for miles
                    B7B7
they're draggin' their feet while they carry their lives
   E MajorE        E7E7      A7A7     A minorAm
in an old world that's dying they tryin to survive
E MajorE            B7B7   E MajorE
0n the scraps of what's left to believe in

E MajorE            A7A7    E MajorE
so heres to tomorrow for better or worse
               B7B7
we all make the journey from cradle to hearse
E MajorE           E7E7       A7A7      A minorAm
and it breaks you and takes you for all that your worth
E MajorE         A7A7    E MajorE
and the cycle just keeps on repeating
