Emaj7      Ebm7 (sus4)      C#m7    Ebm7
   Every   day the deficit  grows

Emaj7     Ebm7 (sus4)         C#m7    Ebm7
you       spend more than you own

Emaj7     Ebm7 (sus4)     C#m7    Ebm7
Papa    always said to    me,

Emaj7        Ebm7          Eb7
keep a close eye on your authority 'cause


Chorus:

Emaj7     Ebm7              C#m7        Ebm7
You       say that you      care

Emaj7     Ebm7               C#m7        Ebm7
I             was            unaware


Emaj7     Ebm7              C#m7        Ebm7
You       say that you      care

Emaj7     Ebm7               C#m7        Ebm7
I             was            unaware


              Emaj7      Ebm7       C#m7                                  Ebm7
All you do is push,      pull,      tear, we can't stretch it any farther

              Emaj7      Ebm7       C#m7                                  Ebm7
All you do is push,      pull,      tear, we can't stretch it any farther

Verse 2:

Emaj7      Ebm7 (sus4)     C#m7    Ebm7
Every      day taxes       increase

Emaj7          Ebm7 (sus4)         C#m7    Ebm7
so is this our land or is this our lease?

Emaj7     Ebm7 (sus4)               C#m7    Ebm7
Papa says son, it's the land of the free

Emaj7           Ebm7 (sus4)              C#m7    Ebm7
as he broke his back trying to make ends meet


Chorus:

Emaj7     Ebm7              C#m7        Ebm7
You         say that you    care

I             was            unaware


Emaj7     Ebm7              C#m7        Ebm7
You       say that you      care

Emaj7     Ebm7               C#m7        Ebm7
I             was            unaware

              Emaj7      Ebm7       Eb7 (to bridge)
All you do is push,      pull,      tear
