Lords Of The Levee

Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 Am Fmaj7 C

[Verse 1]
   Fmaj7     C
I'd like to run
   Fmaj7     C
So far from here
  Fmaj7    Am        Fmaj7      C
So I can find some air to breathe

   Fmaj7     C
Cause I can't stand
   Fmaj7     C
So many lies
    Fmaj7     Am    Fmaj7      C
How can they look me in the eyes

[Chorus]
    Fmaj7
Say everything their talking about
    Fmaj7                                             C
with their self defensive and righteous shouts to the sky
        Fmaj7
And it's easy when you've got a crowd
                                                   C
when your voice can rise up to the sound of the time
                    Am
Then you can't be wrong
                 C
God's on your side
             Am
Just sing along
             G
Don't be afraid, to say
G
You'd never hurt anyone anyway

[Verse 2]
   Fmaj7     C
Invisible lines
     Fmaj7             C
that run through the town
          Fmaj7       Am              Fmaj7         C
Fron the lords of the levee to the projects run down

        Fmaj7           C
And the mayor is so smooth
           Fmaj7       C
tongue of linen and lies
            Fmaj7          Am       Fmaj7          C
filled with fat proclamations that light up the skioes


[Chorus]
    Fmaj7
Say everything you're talking bout
    Fmaj7                                             C
with your self defensive and righteous shouts to the sky
    Fmaj7
And it's easy when you've got a crowd
           Fmaj7                                   C
when your voice can rise up to the sound of the time
                    Am
Then you can't be wrong
               C
God's on your side
             Am
Just sing along
             G
Don't be afraid, to say
G
You'd never hurt anyone anyway

[Verse 3]
   Fmaj7          C
so fill yourself up
         Fmaj7            C
with the truth of the ground?
         Fmaj7     Am       Fmaj7          C
let the various rebels they shatter? the sound

     Fmaj7     C
and beauty burns
        Fmaj7          C
in the white of your skin
         Fmaj7      Am          Fmaj7          C
and you shout revolution as you burn out your sins


[Chorus]
    Fmaj7
Cause it's everything we're talking bout
    Fmaj7                                            C
with our self defensive and righteous shouts to the sky
    Fmaj7
And it's easy when you've got a crowd
Fmaj7                                             C
when your voice can rise up to the sound of the time
                    Am
Then you can't be wrong
                 C
God's on your side
             Am
Just sing along
             G
Don't be afraid, to say
G
You'd never hurt anyone anyway
