... D  D   C
    So you make a litle money
       D
off of sombody elses sweat
        C
so some people starve a little
      D
while  you got fat
              Em . . . Em . DD Em . . .
while you got fat


Em . DD       C
       So you  grind and grind
        D
and you push and shove
    C
and claim that those most worthy
     D
will get what they diserve
             Em . . . Em . DD Em . . .
what they diserve...

     .     .
Em . D     D  C
  It can't be true
   .     .
   D     D  C
It can't be true

  D     D    Em                   D
Because I've seen too many hungry faces
     Em                     D
I've seen too many with the likes of  you
            C . . . C . DD C . . . C .DD Em . . . Em . DD Em . . .
it can't be true

     .   .
Em . D   D   C
     For you everything has its price
         D
you give nothing away for free
   C
if silence were truly golden
  D
I guess no one could sleep
             Em . . . Em . DD Em . . .
no one could sleep

     .   .
Em . D   D    C
     You have money at your fingertips
               D
people at your beck and call
           C
and you're fool enough to think for a price
D                            Em . . . Em . DD Em . . .
 You can have the whole wide world

     .   .
Em . D   D   C
 For all our sakes
    .   .
    D   D   C
and all our lives
.  .
D  D    Em
We must hope the words that
D
come from your lips
        Em                   D
we must hope those words are lies
    .   .
    D   D   C
for all our sakes
    .   .
    D   D   C
and all our lives
.  .
D  D    Em
we must hope the dreams,
         D              
soulless visiones that you have
Em               D
    are never realized



C
 So you've got a big house
    D
you drive a fancy car
   Em
So what if your pockets are full
   D
if you have an empty heart
C
 You snap your fingers
    D
and all the waters part
   Em
So what if the people bow down
        D
if they show you no regard
C
   Your left hand
D
always watshes your right
   Em
So what if you trust in God
   D
if you can't sleep at night
C
  You think you've made it
                 D
You think you've got what everyone wants
   Em
So what if you're a big fat man
        D  (let ring)
with an empty little heart

.   .
D   D    C
Who has   made a litle money
       D
off of somebody else's sweat
C
 Who watched the people starve
D      
while you got fat
              Em . . . Em . DD
while you got fat
Em . . . Em . DD
    you got fat
Em . . . Em . DD Em (let ring)
    you got fat!!!
