Intro:
G

Verse:
G                       C
Sometimes I stare at the night sky
G                       D
See them stars a billion light years away
Em                      C
And it makes me feel small like a bug on a wall
G                       D
Who gives a shit anyway?
D                       Em
Who gives a shit anyway?

Em C Em D

G                       C
When World War II was over
         G                                  D
Though the slate was never wiped clean
Em                    C
We could have picked over them broken bones
G                        D
We could have been free

Em                     C
But we chose to adhere to abundance
Em              D
We chose the American Dream
        Em                   C
And ooo, Mistress Liberty –
D                        Em
How we abandoned thee

Chorus:
Em C
How
Em              D
We abandoned thee
        Em              C
And oh, Mistress Liberty
D                      G
How we abandoned thee

Verse:
G                       C
Could've been born in Shreveport
G                       D
Or he could've born in Tehran
Em                      C
It don't much matter wherever you're born
          G                     D
Little babies mean us no harm
Em                   C
They have to be taught to despise us
      Em                                D
To bulldoze our homes to the ground
     Em                     C
To believe their fight is for liberty
      D                                       Em
To believe their god will keep them safe and sound

Chorus:
Em      C
Safe and sound
Em      D
Safe and sound

Verse:
G                       C
We cannot turn back the clock
G                   D
Cannot go back in time
Em
But we can say:
                   C
Fuck you, we will not listen to
D       Em
Your bullshit and lies

Outro:
Em C

D               Em
Your bullshit and lies
