Bridge:

Now they ^Emsay we live in freedom, have the ^Aright to speak and choose But the ^Emonly time you’re really free is when they t^Cake it all from ^Dyou

There’re ^Emtakin’ all my l^Aand out from un^Dder me But it ^Emain’t for the ^Abetterment of socie^Dty Some ^Gbusiness men who p^Caid off the r^Dight jury &^Em judge Made it ^Glegal for them to ^Dtake my ^Aland from ^Dme

Now I’ve ^Dgot nowhere to go and ^Arest my tired ^Dbones And ^Athe cash they put into my ^Emhands was really an^D insult And while I ^Dspend my final ^Adays livin’ ^Din my poverty The ^Emlaw is on their ^Aside to ^Emsteal my ^Aland from ^Dme

When the ^Dfounding fathers^A wrote the words of ^Dthis land They ^Asaid it was by, for and^Em of the people’s ^Dhand Some^Dwhere someone must’ve ^Agiven those words a t^Dwitch What they ^Emreally meant to ^Asay: it’s of and ^Emby and ^Afor the r^Dich!

There’re ^Emtakin’ all my l^Aand out from under ^Dme But ^Emit ain’t for the ^Abetterment of socie^Dty Some ^Gbusiness men who p^Caid off the r^Dight jury &^Em judge Made it ^Glegal for them to ^Dtake my ^Aland from ^Dme

I’ve been ^Dlivin’ here since the ^Aday I was con^Dceived Feels ^Alike I sold my ^Emland for a pocket full of ^Dbeads I s^Dympathize with all you ^Anatives becau^Dse now I see I can’t ^Emstop them – there’re ^Atakin’ my land from ^Dme I can’t ^Emstop them – there’re ^Atakin’ my land from me
