Not Everything That Counts Can Be Counted
[Verse]
Em C G D Be nice if we could have our cake and eat it Em C G D Though that's impossible to do Em C G D But too many have invested in this outcome Am Am/G C They simply can't afford for it not to come true Em C G D We ceded too much power to the market Em C G D Let it decide what's right or wrong Em C G D Now everyone seems willing to lend credence Am Am/G C And truth is so devalued, it's going for a song
Am Am/G C
[Chorus]
Em C G D Not everything that counts can be counted Em C G D Who holds the markets to account? Em C G D Not everything that counts can be counted Am Am/G C Not everything that can be counted counts

Em C G D People have had enough of experts Em C G D And their inconvenient facts Em C G D Here's what the media really won't tell ya Am Am/G C Exactly who it is that's taking control back Em C G D All opinions are equal Em C G D In the free market of ideas Em C G D And truth is nothing more than an opinion Am Am/G C That's the garnered the most likes, provoked the loudest cheers
Am Am/G C
[Chorus]
Em C G D Not everything that counts can be counted Em C G D Who holds the markets to account? Em C G D Not everything that counts can be counted Am Am/G C Not everything that can be counted counts

Em C G D There isn't really any room for dreamers Em C G D If you have principles that's nice Em C G D The market isn't interested in values Am Am/G C Except for those it can define as price Em C G D All bow to the power of the market Em C G D Till it throws up a different face Em C G D If you're not white or male or compliant Am Am/G C The system is designed to keep you in your place
Am Am/G C
[Chorus]
Em C G D Not everything that counts can be counted Em C G D Who holds the markets to account? Em C G D Not everything that counts can be counted Am Am/G C Not everything that can be counted counts
