Chicken Farm Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][C][D]
[G][D]
[G][D][C]

[Verse 1]
An[D]other rainy
morning mingling at the market
Bartering for food for another day
Rifle shots ring out behind the
crumbling buildings

[Verse 2]
Executions have begun
[D]Sprawled in the square
are today's broken bodies
Lots to pick clean if you're first and quick
Rift through their pockets,
peel off their clothes
To wear or sell when you
wash out the blood

[Verse 3]
[D]Run my little brother
Run to the chicken farm
Opportunity is calling
You might even find [C]a w[D]atch

[Verse 4]
[C]
We're [D]going [C]down
To the [D]chicken farm

[Verse 5]
[C]
Napalm rains [F]no [C]mor[Eb]e[F][G][F][C][Eb][G]
[D]But[C][D][Bm][B5][Bm][D][G]
[D]
[C]the[D] wa[C]r g[D]oes on
Little brother died playing at the dump today
[G]He fou[D]nd a new toy and held it up proud
Then it blew him to bits

[Verse 6]
How [D]many more children
Will be killed or die at birth
Deformed by Agent Orange
In our food chain forever [C]more[D][C]
[D]We're going dow[C]n[D][C]
[F]To [C]the[Eb] chi[F]cken[G] f[F]arm[C][Eb][F][G][D][C][Bm][B5]
[Bm][G][C][G][D][G][C][G][D][G][C][G][D][G][F]
[G][A]
[G]This [A]time we'll buy our way out
I've got a plan; you wait and see
[G]I s[A]muggled you this map
In the gash I sliced in my thigh
[G]I hop[A]e I'm there to join you, love
We're blown to bits one
by one in this camp
We crawl shaking through the
fields at gunpoint all day
To defuse leftover [G]land
mines-by [D]hand[C]
[D]We shiver [C]on [D]the [C]dec[D]k
and stiffen for the worst
If the pirates come around we
might as well be dead
[G]We'll [D]be thrown in the sea
Or butchered if we're women
All in the name of gold
One foot in a land we can
barely understand
Can't speak the tongue
of Yankee hospitality
Our kids at school get beat up
To the tune of "Boat people,
go home"

[Verse 7]
[D]Sliced with a machete
From the breast of our homeland
Our new world tries to spit us [C]out
[D]But[C] it [D]sur[C]e b[D]eats [C]the[F][C][Eb]
[G][F][C][Eb]
