Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Em]Yes indeed it's oh so
very [Am]nice of you to ask
[Em]Still I can't help wondering
if I'm [Am]equal to the task
Of [Em]washing up and getting dressed
and [Am]waiting on a train
[Em]To come so far to watch the Statehouse
burn down in the [Am]rain[Em][Am]
Well, the high[Em]way's choked with
minivans and [Am]traitors heading west
[Em]Here I am still wheezing like
a [Am]sick bird in a nest
My [Em]heart is weak, my face is long,
I'm [Am]not up to the strain
To [Em]breathe the smoke and watch the
Statehouse burn down in the [G]rain
Well I'm not your [Bbaug]father
And I'm not your [Bm]lover
Something [Em]is r[D]ising
[G]And it's boi[C]ling ove[G]r
You'd better take [Bbaug]cover
You'd better take [Bm]cover
Something [D]is rising
[G]And it's boi[C]ling ove[Em]r[Am]
[Em][Am][Em]
[Am][Em][B][Em]
The Governor kept telling us he
[Am]was the People's voice
[Em]He said the time is high for all of
[Am]us to make a choice
Then he jammed [Em]his little finger
in a [Am]rusty weather vane
And [Em]ran out of the Statehouse
as it burned down in the rain
It's easy making plans
out [Am]walking in the sun
[Em]Any fool can kick an old man down[Am]
on the ground and turn and run
But it's [Em]gonna take some doing,
yeah, some [Am]doing to explain
All the [Em]cheers the night the Statehouse
burned down in the [G]rain
I'm not your [Bbaug]father
I'm not your [Bm]lover
Something [Em]is r[D]ising
[G]And it's boi[C]ling ove[G]r
You'd better take [Bbaug]cover
You'd better take [D]cover
[Bbaug][Bm]
Something [D]is rising
[G]And it's boi[C]ling over
Oh [Em]yeah[Am][Em][Am]
[Em][Am][Em]
The pillars and the amber waves,
[Am]the bannisters and such
[Em]All that seemed too far away,
[Am]too far away to touch
We nev[Em]er found the numbers
or the lan[Am]guage to complain
Un[Em]til the night the Statehouse up and burned down in t[Am]he r[Em]ain
