On With The Song

D        | G         | C           | C   G/B        |
D        | G         | C           | G/B            |
D        | G         | C           | C   G/B        |
D        | G         | C           | G/B            ||

[Verse 1]
     D             G        C          G/B
This isn't for the ones who blindly follow
D          G               C       G/B
Jingoistic bumper stickers telling you
   D          G                  C             G/B
to love it or leave it and you'd better love Jesus
        D          G          C              G
and get out of the way of the Red, White and Blue.

[Interlude]
D        | G         | C           | C   G/B        |
D        | G         | C           | G/B            ||

[Verse 2]
     D             G        C             G/B
This isn't for the ones who buy their six-packs
       D  G               C           G/B
at the 7-Eleven where the clerk makes change,
      D      G              C                 G/B
whose accent makes clear he sure ain't from here,
                D       G        C            G/B
they call him a   camel jockey instead of his name.

[Chorus]
    Am              Am       Am          Am
No, this is for the ones who stand their ground
         C            C        G  D
when the lines in the sand get deeper,
         Am          Am          Am     Am
when the whole world seems to be upside down
        C           C         G   D    Am  Am    C   C   C   C
and the shots being taken get cheaper, cheaper.

[Verse 3]
     D             G              C          G/B
This isn't for the ones who would gladly swallow
D                G            C         G/B
everything their leader would have them know,
D          G             C                 G/B
bowing and kissing while the truth goes missing
          D        G                 C       G/B
"Bring it on, " he crows, putting on his big show.

[Verse 4]
     D             G       C                 G/B
This isn't for the man who can't count the bodies,
      D           G               C               G/B
can't comfort the families, can't say when he's wrong,
         D         G                C            G/B
playing 'I'm the decider' like some sort of Messiah
        D         G            C             G/B
while another day passes and a hundred souls gone.

[Chorus]
    Am              Am       Am          Am
No, this is for the ones who stand their ground
         C            C        G  D
when the lines in the sand get deeper,
         Am          Am          Am     Am
when the whole world seems to be upside down
        C           C         G   D    Am  Am    Am    Am
and the shots being taken get cheaper, cheaper.

[Interlude]
D        | G         | C           | C   G/B        |
D        | G         | C           | G/B            |
D        | G         | C           | C   G/B        |
D        | G         | C           | G/B            ||

[Bridge]
Dm                          F
This is for the ones that I see above me,
D            G          C         G
three little stars in a great big sky,
Dm                      F                        C         C
light for the world and hope for the weary, they try.

[Verse 5]
     D             G               C        G/B
This isn't for the ones with their radio signal,
D           G            C         G/B
calling for bonfires and boycotts, they rave,
  D             G            C              G/B
exhorting their listeners to spit on the sinners
      D            G             C               G/B
while counting the bucks of advertising, they'll say.

[Verse 6]
     D         G           C            G/B
This isn't for you and you know who you are,
         D           G             C             G/B
so, just do what you want 'cause I know that you can,
      D        G         C           G/B
but I gotta be true to myself and to you,
   D           G       C            G/B
so on with the song, I don't give a damn.
