[G]
They kept talking of the things they'd do if we'd only vote them in
Send one more dollar and all [D] the bigoring [C] and [G] suffering would end
If you sign your [D] exit favor, it's [C] three [D] jobs for every [G] man
You can burn your boats.
[D] That's what they said.
[Am] You'd see [G] they had [A] it [G] planned
[Em] And I hope they haven't forgotten
the promises they [D] made
[G] Because they said they'd stop the [D] fighting [G] and they said there would bring [D] peace
And they [G] said they'd find a [D] serum that can [G] cure all our disease
[D] [G] And they said they'd house the [D] homeless and [G] put black and white in too
[D] [Em] And they said they'd beat [A] a hungry child [D] and I hope it's [G] someday soon

But the paper couldn't [D] even provide shelter [G] for his freezing feet

[Em] And they said they'd beat [Am] a hungry child [D] and I hope it's [G] someday soon
Well, they [Em] said it would be [A] so different [E] if we'd only [Em] play [Am] their [A] games
[Em] And I've been playing [Am] for so [C] long and I swear it's still [D] the same
