Jackson Browne – Casino Nation (Ukulele)

  Am                                 D   
In a weapons producing nation under Jesus

  Am                           D
In the fabled crucible of the free world

  Am                                    D
Camera crews search for clues amid the detritus

  F
And entertainment shapes the land

  C#m
The way the hammer shapes the hand

  Am                                            D 
Gleaming faces in the checkout counter at the Church of Fame

  Am                     D 
The lucky winners cheer Casino Nation

  Am                           D 
All those not on TV only have themselves to blame

  F
And don't quite seem to understand

  C#m
The way the hammer shapes the hand

 F
Out beyond the ethernet the spectrum spreads

       D                          Am
DC to daylight, the cowboy mogul rides

 F
Never worry where the gold for all this glory's gonna come from

       D                                   Am
Get along dogies, it's coming out of your hides

  Am                              D 
The intentional cultivation of a criminal class

  Am                                D 
The future lit by brightly burning bridges

  Am                               D 
Justice fully clothed to hide the heart of glass

  Am                              D 
That shatters in a thousand Ruby Ridges

  Am                                D 
And everywhere the good prepare for perpetual war

 F
And let their weapons shape the plan

C#m
The way the hammer shapes the hand
