City on the Hill Desaparecidos
Intro:
C // ( E grace-note) C // ( E gn) Am Em - F
C /// ( E gn) C /// ( E gn) Am Em - F
All the founding fathers - sowed their seeds into servant girls
All the godless heathens - had to leave to make a newer world
[G]So we could live[G] together in Americ[F]a - [Am]Jus[-]ti[G]ce is blin[G]d and so is love[F]
C // ( E gn) C // ( E gn) Am Em - F (x 2)
Uh-oh Uh-oh - Uh-oh Uh-oh
C /// ( E gn) C /// ( E gn) Am Em - F
All the stolen melodies - they played in the hit parade
All the borrowed spirituals - they feigned in the salad days
[G]So we could sing[G] together in Americ[F]a - [Am]The[-] p[G]rice of an[G] anthem paid in b[F]lood
[C]Bodies stacked like hund[G]red dollar bills[F] - (Carved names into a wall)
To build that shining city on the hill - (Forgot them all)
[G]There's no guilt, regret[F] or shame - It j[G]ust had to be th[C]is way
C // ( E gn) C // ( E gn) Am Em - F (x 2)
Uh-oh Uh-oh - Uh-oh Uh-oh
C /// ( E gn) C /// ( E gn) Am Em - F
If you scheme and hustle just don't get caught, - you've got to risk it all
Or hang on every number - they read off for the Powerball
[G]We'll all get ri[G]ch together in Amer[F]ica [Am]- M[-]on[G]ey is indi[G]fferent and so is[F] love
[C]Trash bags full of hundr[G]ed dollar bills [F]- (Put statues on the mall)
We left that bombed-out city on the hill - (Forgave them all)
[G]Have to relocate the pas[F]t - Because we a[G]re never going b[C]ack
Solo:
C - G - F x 2 G - F - G - C
C // ( E gn) C // ( E gn) Am Em - F (x 2)
Uh-oh Uh-oh
Peace Out
