The 99 Chords

(ver. 1)
Son Volt
[Intro]
Am Asus2 Am G Am


[Verse 1]
Am
Journalists in jail covering the scenes
    G                           Am                   G  Am
The profit columns rise for the corporate machines
Am
Take the stand now, protest and holler
   G                            Am                 G  Am
Desecration of the land for the almighty dollar


[Chorus]
Am
99 Percent
Am
99 Percent
       G
It's a trickle-down world
            Am
Like you're stuck in cement
D                     Cadd2 G
Imbalance hangs over
G                    G Cadd2
The 99 is down here
D                     Cadd2 G
Imbalance hangs over
G                    Cadd2   Am
The 99 is down here


[Guitar Break]
Am Asus2 Am G Am


[Verse 2]
Am
They can fill up the jails but it won't make a dent
      G                           Am                  G  Am
Those sins don't wash away in the sea of discontent
Am
Already spent, already spent
   G                            Am             G  Am
No way to get ahead 'cause it's already spent
Am                         Am
With no spot at the table, hopes and dreams have died
    G                    Am
The 99 Percent have been taken for a ride


[Chorus]
D                     Cadd2 G
Imbalance hangs over
G                    G Cadd2
The 99 is down here
D                     Cadd2 G
Imbalance hangs over
G                    Cadd2   Am
The 99 is down here
Am              Am
99 percent, 99 percent
        G                                              Am
It’s a trickle-down world like you’re stuck in cement
Am              Am
99 percent, 99 percent
        G                                              Am
It’s a trickle-down world like you’re stuck in cement
