[Intro] G [Verse 1]
         G                              C             G
It's the worst that it's been since the last time it happened

     G                                      D
It's happening again right in front of our eyes

        G                C          G
There's updated footage, wild speculation

G                          D         G     G7
Tall tales and hearsay and absolute lies

C                               G
Been passed off as factual when actually, the actual

G                                   D
Causes they're awkwardly blockin' the way

G                      C          G
Keeping us all from enjoyin' our evening

G                              D              G
Shoving its roots through the screens in our face
[Verse 2]
     G                         C         G
Now, what would you get if you heard my opinion

G                                           D
Conjecturin' on matters that I ain't never dreamed

G                         C             G
In all my born days as a white boy from Hickman

G                         D                G      G7
Based on the way that the world's been to mе?

C                                 G
It's called me belligеrent, it's took me for ignorant

G                                               D
But it ain't never once made me scared just to be

G                      C          G
Could you imagine just constantly worryin'

G                      D          G
Kickin' and fightin', beggin' to breathe?
[Verse 3]
G                        C             G
How many boys could they haul off this mountain

G                                            D
Shoot full of holes, cuffed and laid in the streets

       G                    C            G
Til we come in to town in a stark ravin' anger

G                       D             G      G7
Looking for answers and armed to the teeth?

C                    G
Thirty aught sixes, Papaw's old pistol

G                                        D
How many, you reckon, would it be, four or five?

         G                      C             G
Or would that be the start of a long, violent history

G                       D       G
Tuckin' our tails as we try to abide?
[Outro]
      G                       C            G
Would that be the start of a long, violent history

G                        D      G
Tuckin' our tails as we try to abide?
