INTRO:
C5 G5 Am---> F5 x2
VERSE 1:
C5 G5 A5 ----> F5
O, I was free to live and love and kill as I saw fit
C5 G5 A5 ----> F5
I was at peace, there really was no one I was at war with
G5 G( B5 ) C5 C( D5 )
The only common good was that we understood
E5 F(e)
That laws unjust were only good for breaking
G5 G( B5 ) C5
The difference legalized instead of (sameness?)
F5
Left nobody free
C5 G5 A5
But that was the day before I married my conscience to the State
( A5 ) C5 E5 E5 F5 F5 F5 ( G5 )
A5 C5 E5 E5 F5 F5 F5 ( G5 )
VERSE 2:
C5 G5 A5 ----> F5
My taxes paid, these roads were laid to places of my choosing
C5 G5 A5 ----> F5
There were no eyes up in the skies looking down into my bed
G5 G( B5 ) C5 C( D5 )
There was no government without our consent
E5 F(e)
And keys were made for anyone who just claimed it
G5 G( B5 ) C5
And glass was all of every wall that framed it
F5
From sea to shining sea
C5 G5 A5
But that was the day before I married my conscience to the State
( A5 ) C5 E5 E5 F5 F5 F5 ( G5 )
A5 C5 E5 E5 F5 F5 F5 ( G5 )
BRIDGE:
A5 F5
Right and wrong were written on my heart,
G5
not just in the laws that condemn me
A5 F5
But now with Caesar satisfied,
G5 Am.....
I can even do the things that should offend me
