tuned down 1/2 step

Intro - Am


C                 Am
Mutes they like to protest

            G
to disagree between the lines

              F
where the mass majority hide



C                       Am
And on the news it’s like Mardi Gras

           G
every night with their shirts off

              F
to shine your ears and eyes



Am              C
In a restaurant booth

              G
I cut my tooth

            C           Am
on pictures of our sable justice

Am             C           G        C      Am
given the facts who can relax so easy on death?



F                      Am   C
Love ain’t something I remember

F                      Am     C
trust ain’t something I afford no one

F                    Am   C
lately I remember to forget

F                          Am    C
can’t get shot in the back if you don’t run

F                          Am    C
can’t get shot in the back if you don’t run



F   Am



C                   Am
My fate it lies with someone

                   G
each stranger I’m a part of

Am
and them of I


C                    Am
Across continents and oceans

                   G
transplanted the Great Divide

Asus4                              C
even though the Rockies they ain’t moved none



Am            C
In an airport lounge

              G
I try and drown

Asus4                C       Am
the pictures of our sable justice

Am            C             G     Asus4    C
given the facts who can relax so easy on death?



F                      Am   C
Love ain’t something I remember

F                      Am      C
trust ain’t something I afford no one

F                    Am   C
lately I remember to forget

F                          Am     C
can’t get shot in the back if you don’t run
