[Tone]Capo [G]on 3rd fret
--Intro--
[Em] [C] [G] [Am] [G] [Am] [C] [C]
Your [Em]class, your caste, your country, sect, your n[C]name or your tribe
There's [G]people always dying trying to[Am]to keep them alive
There are [G]bodies decomposing in co[Am]containers tonight
In an[C]an abandoned building[C]building where
The [Em]squatters made a mural of a [C]Mexican girl
With [G]15 cans of spray paint in a chem[Am]chemical swirl
She's [G]standing in the ashes at the[Am]the end of the world
Four [C]winds blowing through her hair
But when great [Am]Satan's [D]gone, the Whore of [Am]Baby[D]Babylon
She just [C]can't su[G]stain, the pressur[C]e where it[G]'s placed
She [Am]caves [(Am)] She [D]caves... [(D)]
--Interlude--
[Em] [C] [G] [Am] [G] [Am] [C] [C]
The [Em]Bible's blind, the Torah's deaf, the [C]Qu'ran is mute
If you [G]burned them all together you'd get[Am]get close to the truth
Still, they're [G]pouring over sanskrit under[Am]under ivy league moons
While shadows[C]shadows lengthen in the[(C)]the sun
Cast on a [Em]school of meditation built to [C]soften the times
And [G]hold us at the center while the[Am]the spiral unwinds
It's [G]knocking over fences, crossing[Am]crossing property lines
Four winds[C]winds, cry until it[(C)]it comes
And it's the [Am]Sum of [D]Man, Slouching towards [Am]Bethle[D]Bethlehem
A heart just [C]can't co[G]ntain, All of tha[C]t emp[G]ty space
It [Am]breaks[(Am)]breaks, it [D]breaks.[(D)]breaks... It breaks!
--Interlude--
[Em] [C] [G] [Am] [G] [Am] [C] [C]
Well I went [Em]back by rented Cadillac and [C]company jet
Like a [G]newly orphaned refugee r[Am]retracing my steps
All the [G]way to Cassadega to co[Am]commune with the dead
They said, "You'd[C]"You'd better look aliv[(C)]alive"
Now it's [Em]off to old Dakota where a [C]genocide sleeps
In the [G]Black Hills, the Badlands, the[Am]the calloused East
I've [G]buried my ballast, I[Am]I made my peace
Heard four[C]four winds leveling the pine[(C)]pines
But when great [Am]Satan's [D]gone, The whore of [Am]Baby[D]Babylon
She just [C]can't r[G]emain, With all tha[C]t out[G]er space
She [F#m]breaks[(F#m)]breaks, she b[Em]breaks, [(Em)] she c[Am]aves,[G] she [C]caves[C/B]
She [Am]breaks [(Am)] [D] Y[(D)]You'd better look alive
--Outro--
