              Am                 F
It was a ruff night 
                      F
Turned into years in an unknown land 
         Am                       F
Just a grudge fight 
                                F
Cooked up by the DC suites on hand 
                  Am                F
We had a hard time 
             F
But we tried to understand 
            Am                F                       F 
These born-again gunpoint libertines 

                   Am         G              D                 E7 
Then they sold us down the face of the mighty river 
         Am     G            D
Sold turpentine for tea 
Am          G                   D        E7
Hold me now it's the evil liberator 
                 Am                    G             E7
And he's coming with a gang of thieves 

           Am             F
In the firelight 
            F
Of the torched out refineries 
             Am             F
He sat upright 
                    F
The poster boy for the IMC 
   Am                                F                         F
A poor man fights and dies for what a rich man only believes 
             Am                  F                            F
Sure as a blind man does not see the floor 

                   Am         G              D                 E7 
Then they sold us down the face of the mighty river 
         Am     G            D
Sold turpentine for tea 
Am          G                   D        E7
Hold me now it's the evil liberator 
                 Am                    G             E7
And he's coming with a gang of thieves 

                             Am                     G                F                F
And they say no battleship too big for the war emporium 
     Am                    G                         F                                    F
It's give it all you got son and go back to where you're from 
                       Am                  G                           F              F 
'Cause we're hiding in the wings, we're the super neocons 
             Am                               G                     F7   
We got bombs and they got barrels of gasoline. 

                       Am
You know you'll have it coming if you say that there is nothing to see 

            Am                   F  
In the desert night 
                                      F
They listened for the baying of the hounds 
                      Am                F
But it wasn't quite right 
                          F
no sign of the weather underground 
                                            Am                 F
And they were keepin' a sharp eye 
          F
They never saw what they had found 
    Am               F                    F
At last it was only you and me 

                   Am         G              D                 E7 
Then they sold us down the face of the mighty river 
         Am     G            D
Sold turpentine for tea 
Am          G                   D        E7
Hold me now it's the evil liberator 
                 Am                    G             E7
And he's coming with a gang of thieves  


                             Am                     G                F                F
And they say no battleship too big for the war emporium 
     Am                    G                         F                                    F
It's give it all you got son and go back to where you're from 
                       Am                  G                           F              F 
'Cause we're hiding in the wings, we're the super neocons 
             Am                               G                     F7   
We got bombs and they got barrels of gasoline.
