Us Government Acoustic keyboard

Us Government Acoustic

• Am

This is an acoustic version I downloaded from the BRMC forum pages somewhere 
and search around.  Love these guys, their hard stuff and acoustic stuff.

Because this is the acoustic version, it does not fit with the album version, but I love 
version anyway.

CAPO 1

INTRO: Am > E

VERSE: Am > E > Am > D

CHORUS: F > Am > F > C > E

BRIDGE: Am > E > C > D (not completely convinced it's a C here, but seems to fit alright)

LYRICS (may not be totally accurate):

VERSE:

Am
I spit my faith on the city pavement

E
To keep a smile

Am
I bought my legs from the US Government
D
To keep me in line



CHORUS:
F                             Am
We are the ones that keep you down
F                              C

We are the ones that warm the ground
                   E

While our arms surround

VERSE:


I filled my head with another replacement

To keep me high

I shot my soul when you wanted to take it

Your worst ain't mine

CHORUS:

We are the ones that keep you high

We are the ones that warm the sky

And you're burning bright

INTRO:
Ooh

VERSE:

She's my river of sunshine she's my girl

(She's my girl)
She can save the US and save the world
(Save the world)

CHORUS:

She's alright I'll be fine

There's no US save your mind

Save your mind

VERSE:


I'll give you nothing if you're just gonna waste it

But that's alright

I'll give you love if you wanting the taste that

That leaves it behind



CHORUS:
We are the ones that keep you high

We are the ones that burn your pride

And you're burning bright

INTRO:


Ooh


BRIDGE:

I've been waiting for the sun to come

Lead me through the gates of Rome
You're gonna know they were never

Never yours to kill
(x2)

I've been waiting for the sun to come

Surely I must be undone
You're gonna know they were never

Never yours to kill

OUTRO:
Am (mix in some hammers to Asus4)
