Once the religious, [C] the hunted and weary, [D] chasing the [C] promise of freedom and hope,
[D] came to this [C] country to build a new [D] home far from the [C] riches of kingdom and hope.
Like the Christians, some would burn [D] the witches, [C] later some would slay to gather [D] riches,
but still [A] from near and far to seek [G] America, [D] they came by [B] thousands [D] to guard the wild,
but [A] she just patiently [G] swallowed and bore and dove to [D] be this for us [B] and [D] guiding light.
And once the ties [C] with the crown had been broken, [D] were spread in [C] saddle and wagon mid-wind,
[D] and till the [C] railroad linked ocean to [D] ocean, many the [C] lives which had come [G] to an end,
[C] while we bullied, stole and bought [D] a homeland, [C] we became the slaughter of [D] the red men,
but [A] still from near and far to [G] seek America, they [D] came by thousands to guard the wild,

And though the past has [C] its share of [D] injustice, kind was the spirit [C] in many a way,
[D] but its [Am] protectors and friends have [G] been [C] sleeping, [D] now it's a monster [C] and will [Dm] not obey.
[C] [D]

[D] [C] [G] The spirit was freedom and justice, [C] [G] and its keepers seemed generous and [Bb] kind,
[F] [G] its leaders were supposed to serve the country, [Bb] [C] [G] but now they had no mind,
[F] [G] cause the people grew fat and got [Gm] lazy, [C] now [G] their vote is a meaningless joke.
[Bb] [C] [G] They babble about law and [Bb] [C] order, [G] but it's all just an echo of what [D] they've been told.
[Bb] Yeah, there's a monster on the loose, [C] it's got our heads into the noose,
[G] and it just sits there watching, [Gm] [C] [G] cities
[Bb] [C] [G]
have turned into [Bb] [F] jungles,
[G] and corruption is spilling [Gm] the land, [C] [G] the police force is watching the [Gm] people,
[C] [G] and the people just [Gm] can't understand, [C] [G] we don't know how to mind our [D] business,
[C] cause [Gm] the whole world's got to be just like us, now we are fighting a war over [F] there,
[G] no matter who's the winner, we can't be the [A] boss, [Bb]
cause there's a monster on the loose,
[C] it's got our heads into the noose, and it just sits [D] there watching.
