[Verse]
              C7        
People on the street now
F                    
■ Faces long and grim
C7                        
■  Souls are feeling heavy
    F          Bb      F    C
And ■ faith is growing thin ■
          C7              
Fears are getting stronger
        F                Fmaj7 F
You can Feel them on the rise  ■
C7                                          F                   
Hopelessness got some by the throat you can see it in their eyes

Bb C        Bb F
■  How come ■  ■

Everybody crossing their fingers and toes ■ ■
               C7       F                              
Government man spin his politics till he got you pinned
C7                                            
■  Everybody trying to reach out to each other

[Verse]
           C7   C          C7  C  C7    
I said how come the pistol now as profit
F                 F7                   
■ The bullet some kind of lord and king
C   C7               Bb                F                   Bb       F    
But pain is the only promise that this so called savior is going to bring
C                   
■ Love can be a liar
    F                       
And ■ justice can be a thief
C                                          F                      
And freedom can be an empty cup from which everybody want to drink
Bb F      C       
I  ■ said how come
C           
I can't tell
F             
The free world

From living hell

In misery

I said how come ■ ■  ■
