[Verse 1]
D
Mountains of money
A7sus4
Men dressed up as news
G D
And we fiddle while Rome burns
D
They're p**sing away
A7sus4
What others died to create
G D
We fiddle while Rome burns
D
Like Orwell's doublespeak
A7sus4
They're taking their cues
G Asus4
And we fiddle while Rome burns
[Chorus 1]
Em G
The interstates connect more than divide
Em Asus4 D
Free will can only survive
[Guitar break]
D A7sus4 G A7sus4 Em G Em Asus4 D
[Verse 2]
D
Time to face the music
A7sus4
Time to make the fur fly
G D
We fiddle while Rome burns
D
Too clever by half
A7sus4
They play the short game
G D
And we fiddle while Rome burns
D
No turning back the clock
A7sus4
There must be hope in this hell
G Asus4
We fiddle while Rome burns
[Chorus 2]
Em G
And the freeways lead to the gravel roads
Em Asus4 D
To the town squares and the rodeos
[Outro]
D Asus4 G D
G D
While Rome burns
G D
While Rome burns
G D
While Rome burns
G D
While Rome burns
