E B E C#m
There is no time to discuss or debate
A B E
What is right, what is wrong for our people
E B E C#m
Time has run out for all those who wait
A B E
With bent limbs and minds that are feeble
Chorus:
E C#m A B
And the rain falls and blows through their window
E C#m A B
And the snow falls and blows through their door
E C#m A B
And the seasons revolve 'mid their sounds of starvation
E C#m A E
When the tides rise, they cover the floor
E B E C#m
And they come from the north and they come from the south
A B E
And they come from the hills and they valleys
E B E C#m
And they're migrants and farmers and miners and humans
A B E
Our census neglected to tally
chorus
E B E C#m
And they're African, Mexican, Caucasian, Indian
A B E
Hungry and hopeless Americans
E B E C#m
The orphans of wealth and of adequate health
A B E
Disowned by this nation they live in
E B E C#m
And with weather-worn hands On bread lines they stand
A B E
Yet but one more degradation
E B E C#m
Yes, and they're treated like tramps While we sell them food stamps
A B E
This thriving and prosperous nation
Chorus
E B E C#m
And with roaches and rickets and rats in the thickets
A B E
Infested, diseased, and decaying
E B E C#m
With rags and no shoes and skin sores that ooze
A B E
By the poisonous pools they are playing
E B E C#m
In shacks of two rooms that are rotting wood tombs
A B E
With corpses breathing inside them
E B E C#m
Yes, and we pity their plight as they call in the night
A B E
And we do all that we can do to hide them
outro:
E C#m A B
And the rain falls and blows through their window
E C#m A B
And the snow falls in white drifts that fall
E C#m A B
and the tides rise, with floods in the nursery
E C#m
and a child is crying
A B
hes hungry and cold
A B
his life has been sold
A B
his young face looks old
A B E
its the face of america dying
