Tuning: E A D G B E

^DI am so weary I’m as glum as I can be

All y’all have lost it I meet your madness with pity

I Don’t ^Ablame you for being scared^A7 But its the ^Awrong direction that your teeth are bared

We’re fully ^Dbusted We know the ship has run aground

The things you trusted They burned the farm and moved to town

And though I ^Amight eat all of my steaks rare^A7 I never ^Asold my soul to a billionaire

[Chorus]

I keep the ^Ddo^Aor^D Open for ^Dyo^Au ^D ^D7 ^GBound and determined, oh You can’t lie to ^Dme^A ^D ^ABound and determined, oh To ruin every^Dthing ^A7

[Verse 2]

You say you’re ^Dcountry You lay a claim unto the soil If you were ^Dcountry

You’d save your land from being spoiled

Do you drink ^Awater? Do you breathe ^A7air? I think if ^Ayou were really country you would fucking care

I’d be just ^Dlike you If I were fed the things you’re fed

I’m just as frightened

^DWe’re off the rails We’re in the red You’ve got ^Aopinions But your proof, it lacks^A7 And only ^Aone of us is dealing in alternative facts

[Chorus]

I keep the ^Ddo^Aor^D Open for ^Dyo^Au ^D ^D7 ^GBound and determined, oh You can’t lie to ^Dme^A ^D ^ABound and determined, oh To ruin every^Dthing ^A7

[Verse 3]

Do you love ^Dfreedom? Or security in dreams

Is life worth living if there’s lead in the last stream?

To a ^Aglutton what’s allegiance worth ^A7 If the ^Ameek like me are to inherit the earth?

It's not ^Doppression To ask for basic decency You’ll learn your ^Dlesson

While you’re repeating history

And if ^Athis song gets me shot At least my voice, it wasn’t silent You’ll ^Dforget me not

[Chorus]

I keep the^D d^Aoo^Dr Open for ^Dyo^Au ^D ^D7 ^GBound and determined, oh You can’t lie to ^Dme^A ^D ^ABound and determined, oh To ruin every^Dthing To ^Aruin every^Dthing To ^Aruin every^Dthing

^N.C.You'll ruin everything
