Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[F]Now I can buy the proverbial gun
And shoot the proverbial child
When my uncle looks me [Dm]in the ey[F]e
And speaks of [Am]freedom[F][Am]
My [F]conscience goes up on trial
In the courtrooms of the mind
Where the judges all [Dm]have [F]sons
And [Dm]all the [F]lawyers all [Am]were dead
And the [F]backs are all broke
And the bailiff is my brother
And the witness is my sister
And I'm guilty [Am]as hell
And by [F]the afternoon I'm out
On the pavement walking
Reeking of salt and [Am]blood
No [F]hair upon my head
No shoes upon my feet
Picking your body from my [Am]teeth
No [F]stars above me
No stripes upon me

[Outro 1]
Free (x10)
[Am][Em][F]
[Em][F][Em]
[Em]
