              Em                 G
It was a ruff night 
                      C
Turned into years in an unknown land 
         Em                       G
Just a grudge fight 
                                C
Cooked up by the DC suites on hand 
                  Em                G
We had a hard time 
             C
But we tried to understand 
            Em                G                       C 
These born-again gunpoint libertines 

                   Em         D              A                 B7 
Then they sold us down the face of the mighty river 
         Em     D            A
Sold turpentine for tea 
Em          D                   A        B7
Hold me now it's the evil liberator 
                 Em                    D             B7
And he's coming with a gang of thieves 

           Em             G
In the firelight 
            C
Of the torched out refineries 
             Em             G
He sat upright 
                    C
The poster boy for the IMC 
   Em                                G                         C
A poor man fights and dies for what a rich man only believes 
             Em                  G                            C
Sure as a blind man does not see the floor 

                   Em         D              A                 B7 
Then they sold us down the face of the mighty river 
         Em     D            A
Sold turpentine for tea 
Em          D                   A        B7
Hold me now it's the evil liberator 
                 Em                    D             B7
And he's coming with a gang of thieves 

                             Em                     D                C                G
And they say no battleship too big for the war emporium 
     Em                    D                         C                                    G
It's give it all you got son and go back to where you're from 
                       Em                  D                           C              G 
'Cause we're hiding in the wings, we're the super neocons 
             Em                               D                     C7   
We got bombs and they got barrels of gasoline. 

                       Em
You know you'll have it coming if you say that there is nothing to see 

            Em                   G  
In the desert night 
                                      C
They listened for the baying of the hounds 
                      Em                G
But it wasn't quite right 
                          C
no sign of the weather underground 
                                            Em                 G
And they were keepin' a sharp eye 
          C
They never saw what they had found 
    Em               G                    C
At last it was only you and me 

                   Em         D              A                 B7 
Then they sold us down the face of the mighty river 
         Em     D            A
Sold turpentine for tea 
Em          D                   A        B7
Hold me now it's the evil liberator 
                 Em                    D             B7
And he's coming with a gang of thieves  


                             Em                     D                C                G
And they say no battleship too big for the war emporium 
     Em                    D                         C                                    G
It's give it all you got son and go back to where you're from 
                       Em                  D                           C              G 
'Cause we're hiding in the wings, we're the super neocons

We got bombs and they got barrels of gasoline.
