See [Em]the man
[G]with the military mind

Trying to make us [C]all stay inside and
[D]lock our [G]doors [Em]and windows
See the man's [G]got too much to count
Try to recol[Em]lect the sermon

Blessed are [C]the poor when they're
all [D]swinging from [Em]the gallows

Staring down at blank [Em]pages all day
Let the alco[C]hol take you away and sleep

Breathing fire, drawing [Em]lines in the sand
