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