_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ all the [C] ropes you see [G] from your door [C] lead one [G] way [C] and the other [G] way _
And all the waves [C] that crash [G] on your shore [C] carry [G] sailors' bones [C] from _ [G] shipwrecked days
[Em] When all those vicious, [C] _
_ [G] handcuffed words [C] _
constrict, [G] _ contract, [D] _
_ constrain
_ _ [G]
I'll meet you on [C]
the _ [G] barricade [C] in the cool, [D] _ defiant [G] _
rain _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
This nation will rise up, I have a dream
I will be your brothers, [C]
held on [G] to your mothers, [C] your story [G] on a [D] written _ _ _ page
[G] Well, they read you the rules and [C] they sent you [G] to school
[C] But you paid [G] for the bars on [D] your _ cage

_ _ _ _ [G] Now it's time you traded [C] that fucker [G] in _ [C] for a place [D] on the _ [G] _

The second's the jury, [C] _
minute's [G] the judge, [C] in the eye [D] of the [G] barricade
You don't get it?
Shut it down!
And the people?
Don't get _ it?
Shut it down!
Thank you everyone, we love you
Your green eyes and [C] your [G] fatal cries [C] are the [G] sweetest _ [D] warning, sir
_ _ [G] But the only _ rain can [C] _
dismantle [G] this thing
[C] It's the _ [G] sound of a siren [D] _
_ heard _ by [Em] the children _ _ of [C] _ _ [G] apostasy
[C] Who will rescue [G] this [D] wretched _ world _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] And join their hands [C] like a [G] barricade, _ [C] like an [D] insulin-fest [G] full of _ pearls _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
Stay _ _ _ [C]
your _ guard _ [Em] _

_ _ _ _ _ [G]
The week is the _ hangman, [C] the month [G] is the rope, [C] in the _ [D] year's the _ [G] _
barricade _ _ _
They should know that we are too educated for all their lies
_ _ _ _ _
Some vote with their heads and some vote with their hearts
And some vote with the ends of their [D] dicks
_ _ You [G] can vote with a ballot, [C] you can vote with [G] your wallet
[C] But it's always [G] a vote for [D] the pricks
_ _ [Em] So let me _ [G] tell you this for free, [C] my next [G] _ vote's [D] with a _ _ brick _ _
_ _ _ Don't [G] vote somewhere _ _ [C] behind the [G] barricade, _ [C] beyond the [D] lies and the [G] rhetoric
_ _ _ If I [Em] see you on [C] the _ [G] barricade, [C] I'll be sure [G] to shake your [D] hand _ _ _ _
_ Oh, and [G]
I'll help you build [C] your _ _ [G] barricade [C] on the grave [D] of this _ [G]
sleepwalking land _ _ _
