Broken Bones

Intro: G

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?
               Em                C   Em  D
Who gives a shit anyway?

   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
   G          C         D
We chose the American Dream
    Em D         C
And oh mistress liberty
D          G      Em
How we abandoned thee
     C      Em   D
How we abandoned thee
   Em D         C
And oh Mistress Liberty
D          Em     G
How we abandoned thee

G                        C
Could have been born in Shreveport
     G                     D
Or he could have 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           D            C
To believe their fight is for liberty
    D                                        Em
To believe their God will keep them safe and sound
Em        C
Safe and sound
Em             D
      Safe and sound

(D G)

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