Bm Bm/F# Bm/A Bm Bm/F# Bm/A I'm a white man living in a white man's nation Bm Bm/F# Bm/A Bm Bm/F# Bm/A I think the man upstairs must'a took a va-cation Em I still have faith, but I don't know why Bm Bm/F# Bm/A Bm Bm/F# Bm/A Maybe it's the fire in my little girl's eyes Bm Bm/F# Bm/A Maybe it's the fire in my little girl's eyes
