Become You Indigo Girls
Capo 7th
Intro
G D Am C D x2
I h[Em]eard you sing a rebel song,[G] [D]
sun[Em]g it loud and all alone.[G] [D]
We [Em]can't afford the things you save,[G] [D]
we [Em]can't afford the warranty.[G] [D]
I s[Bm]ee you walking in the glare
do[Bm]wn the county roa[A]d we share.
Our s[Bm]outhern blood, my heresy,
A. Bm
damn that ol' confederacy.
[G]It took a lo[D]ng time to
[Am]become the thing[C] I am to y[D]ou.
[G]And you won't tear[D] it apart[Am]
without a fi[C]ght, with[D]out a heart.

I'm[Em] sorry for what you have learned,[G] [D]
whe[Em]n you feel the tables turn.[G] [D]
To [Em]run so hard in your race,[G] [D]
now[Em] you find who set the pace.[G] [D]
The lan[Bm]ded aristocracy
[A]exploiting all your enm[Bm]ity.
[Bm]All your daddies fought in vain,
[A]leave you with the mark[Bm] of Cain.
[G]It took a lo[D]ng time to
[Am]become the thing[C] I am to y[D]ou.
[G]And you won't tear[D] it apart[Am]
without a fi[C]ght, with[D]out a heart.

[Am]become you[C], bec[D]ome you.

T[Em]he center holds, so they say.[G] [D]
I[Em]t never held too well for me.[G] [D]
I[Em] won't stop short for common ground[G] [D]
t[Em]hat vilifies the trodden down.[G] [D]
[Bm]The center held the bonded slave
[A]for the sake of[Bm] industry.
[Bm]The center held the bloody hand
[A]of the execu[Bm]tioner man.
[G]It took a lo[D]ng time to
[Am]become the thing[C] I am to y[D]ou.

without a fi[C]ght, with[D]out a heart.
[G]It took a lo[D]ng time to
[Am]become you[C], bec[D]ome you.
