A
Every day I got the blues - I don?t want to say it
A
But when I see the news - I got to say
G                                       A
What the fuck ... what the fuck is going on
A
The economy is starting to crash
A
They say there?s a crisis of credit and cash
G                                               A
And the bankers and the brokers they take the money and run


D
But where do we go - Fools like me
            F#m
I?m working hard - Trying to raise a family
           Bm
They to say to invest - But it always goes down
                                     E
And I?m left with nothing - But that sucking sound


A
It?s the sound of the hole - where my money goes
A
And the billionaires if you think they care
G
Well then you believe in Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny
                      A
And the checks in the mail
A
There?s something wrong here and I don?t know what
A
But I got a feeling down deep in my gut
              G                           A 
There?s one big Ponzi scheme all over the world


D
They?re giving us crumbs - Saying we should be proud
         F#m
To be part of a system - That will always allow
       Bm
You to succeed if you work very hard
                                  E
But I don?t believe it cause they?re holding all the cards


A
And who are they - I don?t even know
A
Is that really your neighbor - On a reality show?
          G                        A
Well my reality looks nothing like that
A
And I?m not choosing sides - Not the left or the right
A
I?m so sick of politicians - And the way that they fight
                     G                            A
They must think that we?re stupid - Well maybe we are
   

                 D
But maybe we?re good - Down deep in our souls
     F#m
The way we take care of the sick and the old
          Bm
I see the children in my children?s eyes
                   E
But I walk around scared and I don?t know why


 D
Scared to die before I live
   F#m
Will I have something left to give?
   E
To give my son a better world
     A
While mother earth is still a girl
 D
Damn my fear
 F#m
Damn my pride
E
Damn my prejudice
E
Open my heart 
E
Open my mind
E
Give me strength when it comes my time


        A                    
I?m not religious I don?t go to church
             A
Except for my meetings But Jesus Christ
          G                                 A
If he was here today I think he?d be mad as hell


A
What the fuck is going on
A
What the fuck is going on
A
What the fuck is going on
