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

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
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

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
