Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[C][Am][F][G][Gsus4]

[Verse 1]
[G]Hey,
baby I just got back from [C]town
Where the bribes [Am]are paid
Honey, they turned my offer [F]down
They say the deal's already [G]made[C]

[Verse 2]
[G]So now I gotta stand [C]and watch
While it all comes [Am]down
And the buzzards and the hawk[F]s
And the judges and the mob
Circle round
[G][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]
Now if I were [C]the queen of all the [Am]world
I would go in [F]chains just
to see you free
[G][C]

[Verse 4]
[G]
Of the ropes that [C]bind you
And the role you [Am]play
And the pride that [F]hooks you
While the big ones [G]get away
[C][G]

[Verse 5]
[C]
Love junkies wanna change the world
[Am]It quickly stays the s[F]ame
Money junkies hire all the smart [G]ones
Power junkies run the game

[Verse 6]
One step at a [C]time
[Am]Polarity Hill
If the bad guys don't [F]get you, baby
Then the good guys will
[G][C][G]

[Verse 7]
With angels on [C]the take
And the gangsters in [Am]the yard
Hey, don't the wars come [F]easy?
Hey, don't the peace come hard?
[G]

[Verse 8]
Now if I had a [C]way to reach [Am]the sky
I'd grab that crescent [F]moon
Wield it like a knife
Save you from [G]the lies

[Verse 9]
From the ropes that [C]bind you
And the role you [Am]play
And the game [F]that hooks you

[Outro 1]
While the big ones get away
[G][C]
[Am][F][G][C][G]
[C][Am][F][C][G]
[C]
