  Verse 1:
A       Asus4
The landlords came
      A
The peasant trials
  D      A
To sacrifice of men
      Asus4        E
Through the past and that quite darkly
  D        A
The presence once again
        Asus4
In the name of capital
A

Establishment
D        A
Improvers, its a name
      Asus4
The hidden truths
      E
The hidden lies
     F#m
That once nailed you
    D
To the pain


  Chorus:
     A
They did a dance
    D
Called America
   F#m
They danced it round
  E       A
And waited at the turns

For America

They danced their ladies round

  Verse 2:
A
To the candles
  Asus4
Of enlightenment
   D         A
Once lit they say don't burn
      Asus4      E
To turn the darkest room of suffering
   D        A
To a greater state of pain
Asus4        A
Don't tell me that's behind you now
   D               A
Don't greet me Don't meet your dying blind
     Asus4      E
It's our very last stand together
     F#m
So let's sever
  D
No regrets

A
There were days
        Asus4
That once held confidence
D          A
Strength of will and mind
        Asus4         E
The camouflage that once washed your fathers
   D         A
Your sons and daughters time
Asus4  A        Asus4
Another tounge My love, my island
      D     A

With all the praying men of God

And watched it all go on
