Chords

* strum once [Verse 1]

     G
They say

This land gets more and more divided

     C
If I may

I think that's not the only side why

       Fadd9
Just today

I read the late edition paper

      C
And no way

I saw the North and South united

         G
Like the blood

That flows every color body

     C
It's enough

We've finally all at the same party

        Fadd9
Looking down

It may not be the thing we wanted

                          C
But there's finally enough to go around

[Chorus]

     C           G
From New York to California

     C                   G
From Detroit down to the border

            C                             Em
We all have more in common now than we do not

            C*
'Cause everybody knows somebody

(Everybody knows somebody)

     Fadd9*
Everybody knows somebody

(Everybody knows somebody)

     C*             D*           G
Everybody knows somebody who got shot

[Verse 2]

     G
They say

There's trouble brewing in the union

    C
Hip hooray

Look human beings being human

       Fadd9
Laying blame

Wherever there is room to lay it's

        C
All the same

You want the red pill or the blue one

         G
But it's all

About to change, something is getting us

 C
Aboard

The SS progress, one big funeral

    Fadd9
For all

The people that we used to call

             C
Before they risked their lives

To head out to the mosque or to the mall [Chorus]

     C           G
From New York to California

     C                   G
From Detroit down to the border

            C                             Em
We all have more in common now than we do not

            C*
'Cause everybody knows somebody

(Everybody knows somebody)

     Fadd9*
Everybody knows somebody

(Everybody knows somebody)

     C*             D*           G
Everybody knows somebody who got shot

[Bridge]

         Fadd9                         C
From the mountain rivers to the public squares

     G                             Fadd9
Everybody's getting really good at sending thoughts and prayers

         Fadd9                C
From the Heart of Dixie up to Oregon

               G                           Fadd9
We can can all rest assured there'll be a slaughter somewhere by the dawn

           Fadd9                             C
And in the nightclubs all the dancers in the dark

             G                               Fadd9
They can all twist the night away with extra fear inside their hearts

         Fadd9                          C
From New England to Alaska every child

          G                             Fadd9
Will know exactly what to do now when a shooter opens fire

[Chorus]

     C           G
From New York to California

     C                   G
From Detroit down to the border

            C                             Em
We all have more in common now than we do not

            C*
'Cause everybody knows somebody

(Everybody knows somebody)

     Fadd9*
Everybody knows somebody

(Everybody knows somebody)

     C*
Everybody knows somebody

(Everybody knows somebody)

             C
This land is your land

             G
This land is my land

             D
This land is our land

           Em
Until it's not

            C*
'Cause everybody knows somebody

(Everybody knows somebody)

     Fadd9*
Everybody knows somebody

(Everybody knows somebody)

     C*
Everybody knows somebody

      D*          G*
Until everybody's gone
