[Verse 1] Em I've been selling my soul,
C
working all day. G D Double time hours, for bullsh*t pay. Em So I can sit out here,
C
and waste my life away. G Drag back home, and drink my
D
troubles away. [Pre-Chorus 1] Em It's a damn shame,
C
what the worlds gotten to. G For people like me,
D
and people like you. Em Wish I could just wake up
C
and it not be true. G D But it is, aw it is. [Chorus 1] Em Livin in the new world,
C G D
with an old soul. Em These rich men north of
C
richmond lord knows they all G D just wanna have total control Em Wanna know what you think,
C
wanna know what you do. G And they dont think you know,
D
but i know that you do. Em Cause your dollar ain't d*ck,
C
and it's taxed to no end G D Cause of ri-ch men, north of Richmond. [Verse 2] Em I wish politicians would
C
look out for miners. G And not just minors on an
D
island somewhere. Em Lord we got folks in the street,
C
with nothin to eat. G D And the obese, milkin' welfare. Em But god if your five foot three,
C
and three hundred pounds. G Taxes ought not to pay for your
D
bags of fudge rounds. Em Young men are puttin themselves
C
six feet in the ground. G Cause all this damn country does,
D
is keep on kickin' them down. [Pre-Chorus 2] Em Lord it's a damn shame,
C
what the worlds gotten to. G D For people like me, and people like you. Em Wish I could just wake up,
C
and it not be true. G D But it is, aw it is. [Chorus 2] Em Livin in the new world,
C G D
with an old soul. Em These rich men north of
C
richmond lord knows they all G D just wanna have total control Em Wanna know what you think,
C
wanna know what you do. G And they dont think you know,
D
but i know that you do. Em Cause your dollar ain't d*ck,
C
and it's taxed to no end G D Cause of ri-ch men, north of Richmond. [Outro] Em C G D Em C G D
