Wasteland Of The Free Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

C Am Living in the Gwasteland of the Cfree

 We got Gpreachers dealin' in politics andC diamond mines

 And their Gspeech is growing inCcreasingly unkind

Am They say they are Christ's disciples

 But Fthey don't look like Jesus to me

 And it feels like CI am Gliving in the wastelandC of the free

 We got Gpoliticians runnin' races onC corporate cash

 Now don't tell Gme they don't turn around and Ckiss them people's ass

Am Now you may call me old-fashioned

 But Fthat don't fit my picture of a true democracy

 And it feels like CI am Gliving in the wastelandC of the free

 We got GC E O's makin' two hundredC times the workers pay

 But they'll Gfight like hell againstC raising the minimum wage

Am And if you don't like it mister

 They'll ship your Fjob to some third world country 'cross the sea

 And it feels like CI am Gliving in the wastelandC of the free

Chorus

F Living in the Gwasteland of the Cfree

E Where the poor have now become the eneAmmy

F Let's blame our Ctroubles on the weak ones

ESounds like some kind of Am Hitler remeFdy

 Living in the Gwasteland of the frCee

 We got Glittle kids with guns fightingC inner-city wars

 So, what do we Gdo, we put these little Ckids behind prison doors

Am And we call ourselves the advanced civilisation

F But that sounds like crap to me

 And it feels like CI am Gliving in the wastelandC of the free

 We got Ghigh school kids runnin' 'round inC Calvin Klein and Guess

 Who cannot Gpass a sixth grade reading Ctest

Am But if you ask them, they can tell you

F The name of every crotch on MTV

 And it feels like CI am Gliving in the wastelandC of the free

 We kill for Goil then throw aC party when we win

 Some guy reGfuses to fight and we call Cthat the sin

Am But he's standin' up for what he believes in

F And that seems pretty damned American to me

 And it feels like CI am Gliving in the wastelandC of the free

Chorus

E Where the poor have now become the eneAmmy

F Let's blame our Ctroubles on the weak ones

EJustice is sinking to the Ambottom of the sea

F Living in the Gwasteland of the frCee

F Living in the Gwasteland of the frCee

F Living in the Gwasteland of the frCee
