F Dm F Dm F F Dm F Dm F
[Verse]
F You never know what the future holds Dm F Dm F in the shallow soil of Monsanto, Monsanto F The moon is full and the seeds are sown Dm F Dm F while the farmer toils for Monsanto, Monsanto Bb Am C F When these seeds rise they're ready for the pesticide Bb Am C F Dm F Dm F And Roundup comes and brings the poison tide of Monsanto, Monsanto
[Verse]
F Dm F Dm F The farmer knows he's got to grow what he can sell, Monsanto, Monsanto F So he signs a deal for GMOs Dm F Dm F that makes life hell with Monsanto, Monsanto Bb Am C F Every year he buys the patented seeds Bb Am C F Dm F Poison-ready they're what the corporation needs, Monsanto
[Interlude]
F Dm F Dm F F Dm F Dm F
[Verse]
F When you shop for your daily bread Dm F Dm F and walk the aisles of Safeway, Safeway F Find the package to catch your eye Dm F Dm F that makes you smile at Safeway, at Safeway Bb Am C F Choose a picture of an old red barn on a field of green Bb With the farmer and his wife Am C F Dm F Dm F and children to complete the scene at Safeway, at Safeway
[Verse]
F Dreams of the past come flooding back Dm F Dm F to the farmer's mind, his mother and father F Family seeds they used to save Dm F Dm F were gifts from God, not Monsanto, Monsanto Bb Am C F Their own child grows ill near the poisoned crops Bb Am C F While they work on, they can't find an easy way to stop, Dm F Dm F Monsanto, Monsanto
