Verse 1
[Gm7]High time we [F]made a stand
And [EbMaj7]shook up the views of the common [Am/D]man
And the love [EbMaj7]train, rides from coast [Am/D]to coast
[EbMaj7]DJ's the man we love[Am/D] the most
[Gm7]Could you be could you be squeaky [F]clean
And [EbMaj7]smash every hope of democracy[Am7]
As the headline [EbMaj7]says you're free to choose[Am/D]
There's egg[EbMaj7] on your face and mud on [Am/D]your shoes
[EbMaj7]One of these days they're gonna call it [Am/D]the blues

They [EbMaj7]look to the skies for [Am/D]some kind of divine

[Gm7]Politician granny with your [F]high ideals
[EbMaj7]Have you no idea how the [Am7]majority feels
So [EbMaj7]without love and a [Am/D]promised land
We're [EbMaj7]fools to the rules of the [Am/D]government plan
