Start Jamming...
[D]
Come out, come out, no use in hiding
Come now, come now, can you not see
There's no place here, what were you [E] expecting
[D] Now that's room for both, just room for me
[G] So you will lay your arms [D] down
[G] Yes, I will call this
[D]
Away, away, you have been banished
Your land is gone and given to me
I [G] will spread my [D] wings
[G] Yes, I will call this
[D]
[Bm] Watch this, you say, you [B] feel the right [G] to remain
Then stay, I will [D] bury you
[B] Watch this, you say, [Bm] your [A] father's spirit [G] still lives in this place
But I will [D] silence you
Here's the hitch, your horse is leaving
Don't miss your boat, it's leaving now
[G] Unless you go, I will spread my [D] wings
[G] Yes, I will call this
[D]
[Bm] Well, I have no time to [B] justify to [G] you
Only a blind rover sighs [D] for me
And
[B] all I [Gbm] can say [Bm] to you, my [B] new neighbor
[G] Is you must move on or [D] I will bury you
They lie, they lie, they lie
Now as I rest my feet by this fire
Those hands [G] once worn tear, well [D] I have retired them
I can breathe [G] my air there, and I can speak [D] more soundly
[B] Upon these small [Bm] souls
I will [G] move on and call it
With
[D]
[Bb]
[D] my justice, and I live with my greed and need
And with no mercy, [Bb] and I live [D] with my friends [Bb] and feet
And I [D] live with my hatred, and I live with my jealousy
God, I live with a notion, [Bb] I don't need [D] anyone with me
Don't drink the water, [N] don't drink the water
There's blood in the water
Don't drink the water, don't drink the [A] water
Don't drink [G] the water, there's blood in the [Bb] water
Don't drink [A] the water
Yes, I must die, [D] oh, oh, oh, oh, me
I love what they have done
Don't drink the water, don't [Bb] drink the water
[D] Don't drink [Bb] the water, [D] don't drink [Bb] the water
[D] There's blood [Bb] in the [D] water
[Bb] Oh, yeah, [A] yeah, yeah, yeah, [Dm] yeah
I'm a strong woman,
[Bb] [D] I'll be there soon as I am
I'm a Marylina 4, a Marylina 4
[D] I'ma see the rain fall down [Bb] on your head
[D] [Dm] [D]
[Dm]
