Verse 1
Gm
to the top of the world
And I saw that I was blessed
Bb
Gm
Eb
I saw that it was built on the backs
of the poor and the oppressed
Bb
C
I saw this end less spinning
Gm
C
Of ending up back at the beginning
F
Bb
Eb
Of headlong races to where we sat
But oh, the places we could go
Bb
if the world was flat
Gm
And I was tired and defeated
Bb
Eb
With nothing turned out as I thought
Gm
Eb
But if I always do what
I've always done
Bb
C
Then I only get what I always got
Gm
C
I saw the masses yawning stolen breaths
Bb
Eb
That they might breathe the next
Tall drinks, queen ants,
Bb
and half -mast cigarettes
Gm
The same lives, the same pain
Lay like embers in the rain
F
Dm
I saw all things invisible that bind me
When Lady Luck was smiling
It was that the guy behind me
Green and brown girls of the sea
D
Take me, but don't ever wake me
Eb
Why are you living in chains?
Eb
Why are you living in chains?
Cm
Eb
You're living in chains
Gm
And I saw my supposed enemy
Bb
C
But I looked exactly like him
Eb
I saw the boat sinking
Gm
So I got out and learned how to swim
C
I saw the sorrow of the centuries
Gm
Bb
Eb
And saw first smoke from the stacks
I saw bullets being buried
Gm
Eb
in our old man's backs
Gm
I saw the poetry of the prophet
F
But they wallpapered over it, they did
The same words written years ago
on the back of my eyelids
Dm
I saw tax collectors as
national protectors
books being burned
And bodies washing in from the sea
Gm
You free
Eb
Why are you living in chains?
Gm
You could change it so bad
Bb
We're nothing but a worm
