^EmI heard you sing a rebel song^G, ^{D Em}sung it loud and all alone. ^{G D Em}We can't afford the things you save^G, ^{D Em}we can't afford the warranty.^{G D Em}I see you walking ^Gin the glare ^Ddown the county r^Emoad we share. ^EmOur southern blood, my ^Gheresy, ^Ddamn that ol' con^Emfederacy.

^G It took a^D long time to ^Am become the thin^Cg I ^Dam to you. ^G And you won'^Dt tear it apa^Amrt without a figh^Ct, with^Dout a he^Emart.

^EmI'm sorry for what you have learne^Gd,^{D Em}when you feel the tables turn^G. ^{D Em}To run so hard in your race, ^{G D Em}now you find who set the pace^G. ^{D Em}The landed aris^Gtocracy ^Dexploiting all your e^Emnmity. ^EmAll your daddies fo^Gught in vain, ^Dleave you with the m^Emark of Cain.

^G It took a^D long time to ^Am become the thin^Cg I ^Dam to you. ^G And you won'^Dt tear it apa^Amrt without a figh^Ct, with^Dout a hear^Gt. It took ^Da long time ^Amto become y^Cou, bec^Dome you^G.

^EmThe center holds, so they say^G. ^{D Em}It never held too well for me^G. ^{D Em}I won't stop short for common gro^Gun^Dd ^Emthat vilifies the trodden down.^{G D Em}The center held the ^Gbonded slave ^Dfor the sake of^Em industry. ^EmThe center held the ^Gbloody hand ^Dof the exec^Emution man.

^G It took a^D long time to ^Am become the thin^Cg I ^Dam to you. ^G And you won'^Dt tear it apa^Amrt without a figh^Ct, with^Dout a hear^Gt. It took ^Da long time ^Amto become y^Cou, bec^Dome you^G.
