(palm mute)
Em * G ( * Walkup to G on 6th string )
Somewhere between the midnight
DAnd the cold and empty Bmdawn
EmI found myself out walGking
DOn the streets where I wasBm born
EmAnd I came upon a sGtranger
DWho looked Me in the Bmface
EmAnd asked Me what I was Gdoing
In thisD god forsaken Bmplace
(play open)
IC/G don't need to be forgiven For someGthing I haven't done
No forDewarning my family To find their Emplace in the sun
IfC/B you keep this pressure on GJust don't be surprised
If I can'Dt summon up My dignity While You're Emroughing up My pride
TBmhere will be a rEmeckoning
C/G For the pGeddlers of Dhate,
Who Emspread their C/Gpoison all acGross this Destate
And a Emreckoning C/Btoo, for the polGiticians wDho

There will be a reEmckoning G D

And thouEmgh I recognize his rGeasons

WhenEm they told me that My Gneighbor
DWould be My Bmenemy
