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

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

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