Democracy chords and lyrics - THE LUMINEERS

Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]It's coming [C]through a hole
in the [G]air
From those nights [C]in Tianan[G]men Square
It's [C]coming from the feeling
This ain't exactly real
[Cm]Or it's real[G], but it ain't exactly there

[Verse 2]
From [B]the wars against disorder
From [Em]the sirens night and day
From the [B]fires of the homeless
From the [Em]ashes of the gay
Demo[D]cracy is [C]coming to the USA
[G]

[Verse 3]
It's coming through a [C]crack in [G]the wall
On a visionary [C]flood of al[G]cohol
From the [C]staggering account
Of the Sermon on the Moun[Cm]t
Which I don't [G]pretend
to understand at all
It's [B]coming from the silence
On the [Em]dock of the bay
From the [B]brave, the bold, the battered
[Em]Heart of Chevrolet
[D]Democracy is [C]coming to the USA
[G]

[Verse 4]
It's coming from [C]the sorrow
in [G]the street

[Verse 5]
[G]The holy places [C]where
the races [G]meet
From the [C]homicidal bitchin'
That goes down in every kitchen
[Cm]To determine w[G]ho will serve
and who will eat
From the well[B]s of disappointment
Where the women [Em]kneel to pray
For the [B]grace of God in
the desert here
[Em]And the desert far away
Demo[D]cracy is [C]coming to the USA
[G]

[Verse 6]
Sail [D]on, sail [C]on
Oh [G]mighty ship of state!
[D]To the shores of need
Past [C]the reefs of greed
Through [G]the squalls of hate
Sail [Am]on, sail [D]on, sail on

[Interlude 1]
[C][G]

[Verse 7]
It's [G]coming to [C]America [G]first

[Verse 8]
[G]The cradle of [C]the best
and of [G]the worst
[C]It's here they've got the range
And the machinery for change
[Cm]And it's here [G]they've got
the spiritual thirst
It's [B]here the family's broken
And it's [Em]here the lonely say
That the heart [B]has got to open
In a funda[Em]mental way
Demo[D]cracy is [C]coming to the [G]USA

[Verse 9]
[G]
It's coming from the [C]women
an[G]d the men
Oh baby, we'll be mak
[C]ing love [G]again
We'll be going [C]down so deep
That the river's going to [Cm]weep
And the moun[G]tain's
going to shout Amen!
It's [B]coming like the tidal flood
[Em]Beneath the lunar sway
Imper[B]ial, mysterious

[Verse 10]
[Em]In amorous array
Demo[D]cracy is [C]coming to the USA
[G]

[Verse 11]
Sail [D]on, sail [C]on
Oh [G]mighty ship of state!
To the [D]shores of need
Past the reef[C]s of greed
Through the [G]squalls of hate
Sail [Am]on, sail on,
[D]sail on

[Interlude 2]
[C][G][Cm][G]
[Cm][G]

[Verse 12]
I'm [G]sentimental, if you [C]know [G]what I mean
Oh, I love the country but I [C]can't
stand [G]the scene
And I'm [C]neither left or right
I'm just staying home tonight
[Cm]Getting lost[G] in that hopeless
little screen
But I'm stub[B]born as those
garbage bags
[Em]That time cannot decay
I'm junk [B]but I'm still holding up

[Verse 13]
This little [Em]wild bouquet
Demo[D]cracy is [C]coming to [G]the USA[C]
To the [G]USA[C]
To [G]the USA[C]

[Outro 1]
To the USA
[G][C][G]
