(C,F,D,Am,G)

C Been the crawl of a mountain Been a link in a chain

Been diggin' to China Been a fish in the sea

Been talkin' to Jesus But he's not talkin' to me

F Been readin' the forecast Something's coming this way

But it's taken forever And I've already maintained that

  I'm Cslow

  FAll hands up, salute the CEmpire State

  FFaith is true, she knows the Cway

  Fallen Fwalls all around

Been a link in a chain

Been scolded for stealin'

Been carted away
