Am Esus4 Am Esus4
Well I got here by boat and I don't intend to stay

The town clerk's black coat is already turning grey
C Cmaj7
I look out
C Cmaj7
Em
and I doubt
Am Esus4 Am Esus4
I've been here one day and already things feel cruel
Am Esus4 Am Esus4
An old lady's cursing at somebody next to you
C A
I look out and I shout
[Chorus]
Am Esus4 Am Esus4
Well I'm shimmering in gold, shimmering in view

Am Esus4 Am Esus4
The people are trained in hate, sending guns to kill
Am Esus4 Am Esus4
Already we're forgetting what we were put here to do
C Cmaj7
I look out
C Cmaj7
Em
and I cry
Am Esus4 Am Esus4
And trees are falling at no man's expense

I look out
C Cmaj7
A
and I shout
[Chorus]

An empathy forgotten with no man's grace
Am Esus4 Am Esus4
I can't recall the last time I saw a true face
C Cmaj7
I look out
C Cmaj7

and I die
Am Esus4 Am Esus4
Words are bombs, bombs are words

I miss the oblivion of being a young girl

I look out,
