Banks Chords by Lincoln

_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Mile marker 27 says we're [B] on the way to heaven and I [A] smile at the passenger [C] seat
_ 40 [F] miles from Chicago.
There is snow on the windshield and you're downtown dragging your feet
_ _ Circling the block around [B] Union Central Station and there [A] are bullets flying into the [Bb] car
_ _ _ [F] Sinsaneness it's always been
_ _ _ [Ab] Sinsaneness it's always been
_ _ [Dm] 200 miles of Chicago.
There is blood on the windshield and [G] I am reeling as you gather your things.
_ I
Said [F] I don't know what to do anymore as if I knew what to do before [Em] I can fuck up [Ab] almost
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] We're stripping down my consciousness is [Ab] your slipping down
_ _ _ _ [C] Build your protest [B] out of sticks and rocks I find [A] in the backyard behind [Bb] the house you grew up in
[F] loving _ _ memory
_ [Fm] Of all our non
[D] _ Conformity I [C] want to sing you a signal that [B] reaches only the ears [Am] of young
Disenfranchised [Bb] straight white boys because [F] that would feel normal
_ _ _ _ [Ab] none of this does
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] I Exactly _ _ Oh
_ _ [F] _ _
My _ consciousness
[Fm] You're slipping down my _ arms
[C] Save it for a rainy day
[Em] _ Maybe that you'll see
_ [F] I am like the earth, old man.
[Ab] There's no way around _ me
[C] _ Even in [G] my dreams
I still [F] don't know the difference between
_ _ [C] What it is [G] I want
_ _ [F] What it is I need.
I want to see [C] you be I [G] _ want to see you [F] survive _
_ And I want [C] to see both of us
[B] _ _ prospering [F] and thriving separately
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
About [F] to happen
_ [C] But also knowing that I can't do [Dm] _
anything [B] about it
Because [C] your new house [Em] just don't shine quite like [Bb] the one you grew [F] up in used [C] to
I want to come [Em] and visit
_ [Bb] I want to see [F] this through
[C] But I never [G] will
Because [B] you're just not what [F] I need
And [C] I am just not [G] like you
I know you're [Dm] every what [F] I _ needed
[C] We'll save up the [B] banks
But we'll [Am] still [F] use them everyday
[C] And [C] when we buy the most _ [B] ourselves
_ [A] _ [F] Banks will say okay
Have [C] you been spending all your _ [G] capital [Bb] on faulted, [F] dirty jobs?
You [C] keep doing what you [G] can
We'll [Bb] keep doing what [F] we must
[C] So despite what you [G] have learned
It's the [Dm] cost for which you [F] take the bullet
You [C] won't find accepted [G] truth
[D] In a final [F] rhyme in chocolate _ _ Chocolate _ _ _ Chocolate [C] Chocolate _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
