Am                              Em
We bought into the promise of a better, greener better day

     Dm                     C                   B
That 7 years would buy us a piece of tomorrow's dream

   Am                              Em
We took it all for granted we were always to be rich

         Dm                   C                B
We could own what we made but owe more than we make

So, brother, could you spare a dime

A                        Am                E
For a cup of coffee or a smoke to pass the time

          Am               Dm     
While I'm standing in this God-forsaken line

   Am               Dm          Em
Of human lottery to shine, just shine

Dm       Em    Am   C          Dm    Em     Am(short)
Mad with the impossible out of chaos is our dream
                                                (just keyboard this time)
Dm  Em    Am  C             Dm   Em          Am(short)
Too heavy for wings we will sink beneath its weight

[Verse chords]
Used to be important in a white collar job
Used to make good money, now I'm lucky getting by

If you can't do something for me, I'm bound to kill myself

Brother, it's not like me to ask

When work is all I really need
From this God-forsaken line to shine, just shine
