(MONEY & CORRUPTION)
[Verse 1]
Am G C We are sick and tired G Am C Am Of being promised this and that. Am G Am G We work all day, we sweat and slave E G Am To keep the wealthy fat. G Em Am They fill our heads with promises G Em Am And bamboozle us with facts, Am G C G Then they put on false sincerity E G Am Then they laugh behind our backs.
[Chorus]
Am G Money and Corruption G Am Are ruining the land Am G Crooked politicians G Am Betray the working man, G Am Pocketing the profits G Am And treating us like sheep, Am G E And we're tired of hearing promises E G Am That we know they'll never keep.
[Chorus]
