Verse
Bm D
For all your escaping well
G D A
I'd thought you would understand
Bm D
That your fate's no replacement for
G D A
The dollars which you have condemned
Bm D
Take you to the rooftop
G D A
they will lead you higher still
Bm D
Take you to their wall and
G D A
Tell their troops to fire at will
[Prechorus]
Bm D
And it all goes around the river tonight
G D A
Like a big talk magic man
Bm D
Fool dont front take whatever you want
G D A
You can get it for a couple of grams
[Chorus]
Bm D G D A
You take your chances while the sunlight sets
Bm D G D A
But no matter how ferocious that the gunfight gets
Bm D G D A
The promise land I hear is merely one ride west
Bm D
haven't had the time to take but
G D A
when the blood dries let's
[Chorus]
Bm D
And it all goes around the river tonight
G D A
Like a big talk magic man
Bm D
Fool dont front take whatever you want
G D A
You can get it for a couple of grams
Bm D
And the sunlight spills on the heavenly hills
G D A
But it puts no food in your hands
Bm D
Spent a long long time on this money tonight
G
Well it's only midnight
Only midnight
D D7 F# Bm D G D A
[Chorus]
Bm D
And it all goes around the river tonight

G D A

And the sunlight spills on the heavenly hills
G D A
But it puts no food in your hands
