[B] [Bm]
I'm a white man living in a white man's world.
Under our [D] roof is a baby [Bm] girl.
[D] [Em]
I thought this world could be hers one day,
but her [Bm] mama knew better.
I'm a white man [D] living in a white man's [Bm] town.
I wanna take a shot of cocaine and burn it down.
Mama [Em]
wants to change that Nashville sound,
but [Bm] they're never gonna let her.
[D] [Em]
There's [G] no such thing as [Bm] someone else's war.
[Em]
Your [G] creature [C#] comforts [Bm] are the only things worth fighting [E] for.
[Em] Still breathing, it's not too [Bm] late.
[E] [Em] We're all [G] carrying one [C#] great [F#] burden, sharing one fate.
[Bm] I'm a white man living [F#m] on a white man's [Bm] street.
I got the bones of the red [D] man under my [Bm] feet.
[A] [E] [Em] Highway runs through the burial grounds,
[Bm] past the oceans of cotton.
I'm a white man [D] looking in a black man's [Bm] eyes.
[B] Wishin' I'd [Bm] never been one of the guys.
[Em] We pretended not to hear another white man's joke.
[Bm] Old times ain't forgotten.
[A] [B] [Bm]
[Em] There's no [G] such thing [Bm] as someone else's war.
[E] [Em] Your creature [F#m] comforts aren't [B] the only things worth fighting [E] for.
Still [Em] breathing, it's not too [Bm] late.
[Em] We're all carrying [G] one [C#] great [F#] burden, sharing one fate.

[Bm] Maybe it's the fire [D] in my little girl's eyes.

Maybe it's the fire in my little girl's eyes.
