Chords with lyrics
A minorAm D MajorD C majorC A minorAm G+G x2
A minorAm D MajorD
It's the American dream
C majorC A minorAm G+G A minorAm
But if you pull on the thread, it's gonna tear at the seam
D MajorD C majorC
See what I mean? We don't tend to scream
A minorAm G+G
Baby, we just stare at the screen
A minorAm D MajorD
Like it's a preacherman up at the pulpit
C majorC A minorAm G+G
Some with the scars end up holding the bullwhip
A minorAm D MajorD
Another angry kid unloading a full clip
C majorC A minorAm G+G
And I could tie a pretty bow on this bullshit
A minorAm D MajorD
But let's not lie for another second
C majorC A minorAm
We see the trouble, we're rubberneckin
G+G A minorAm D MajorD
No doublecheckin, if it's an issue we have to grapple
C majorC A minorAm G+G
The words are caught in my Adam's apple
A minorAm D MajorD
I make my body a happy chapel
C majorC A minorAm G+G
Cause every person's a tabernacle
A minorAm D MajorD
But there's no feeling you gotta hide
C majorC A minorAm G+G
So let's all pray to the God inside, say it now
(Chorus)
D MajorD A minorAm
Never needed a hand til you needed a hand
FF G+G
You never know how to walk until you understand
D MajorD A minorAm
Coulda been anything that you needed to be
FF G+G
How many more do you want? How many more do you need?
A minorAm D MajorD C majorC G+G
Still I wish I could break free
A minorAm D MajorD C majorC G+G
It?s that same old simple song I still believe
A minorAm D MajorD C majorC G+G
How many more do we need?
A minorAm D MajorD
Before it?s hand over hand
C majorC G+G
Love over everything
A minorAm D MajorD
That?s me with the long arm
C majorC A minorAm G+G
Screaming at the top dog, spilling my blood on the cement
A minorAm D MajorD C majorC
We willing to roll now, sick of getting mowed down
A minorAm G+G
Fuck if I dope now, it?d kill me
A minorAm D MajorD
Cause I?d rather be known for the dealing
C majorC A minorAm G+G
Than known to be hooked on the feeling
A minorAm D MajorD C majorC A minorAm G+G
How many more gotta go now? How many more gotta go down?
A minorAm D MajorD C majorC A minorAm
I?ll stand in the rain witcha, just to get a little bit of glimpse of the plain picture
G+G A minorAm D MajorD
People need a pinch just to get em to wake up
C majorC A minorAm G+G
You?ll be in a ditch before I get you to wake up, say it bruh
A minorAm D MajorD C majorC A minorAm G+G
Whoever said it wasn?t fair, they was telling the truth
A minorAm D MajorD C majorC A minorAm G+G
I?d be a liar if I said there was nothing to prove
{Chorus}
A minorAm D MajorD
They say we gotta know our role
C majorC A minorAm G+G
Kiss the bottom of the totem pole
A minorAm D MajorD
Set goals, and then go for gold
C majorC A minorAm G+G
But we hibernate and hide inside our gopher holes
A minorAm D MajorD
I wanna smoke a bowl, a hand on my dick
C majorC A minorAm G+G
While the other one is busy clicking the remote control
A minorAm D MajorD C majorC
I'm no Dalai Lama of the sofa but I hear I gotta go to
A minorAm G+G
Where the sinners face the roasting coals
A minorAm D MajorD
You say that your heart ain't got no holes, well bitch please
C majorC A minorAm G+G
Let's all admit that we got souls like Swiss cheese
A minorAm D MajorD
But wishing isn't gonna fill this abyss
C majorC A minorAm G+G
And no hand over hand over fisted riches is fixin what's missing
A minorAm D MajorD
If I wanna kill this monotony
C majorC A minorAm G+G
I know the answer is a light that I got in me
A minorAm D MajorD
I got no university degree in philosophy
C majorC A minorAm G+G
But I know that every baby's born with the lock and key, say it now
