Am 
Could be what you see,
C 
G 
F 
just distance in his eyes
Em 
He could be watch
F 
C 
ing ashes grow
Em 
F 
We're all in your best seats,
C 
we're just now so
G 
Dm 
But for all I know,
G 
F 
Am 
there's far more I don't
New rays of light must fight
C 
G 
F 
for a place between the leaves
Am 
So sun don't seem surprised
C 
G 
F 
to find no shade beneath this tree
Em 
F 
Just like aid you
C 
can't think twice
Em 
F 
When offered your piece of
C 
the franchise
G 
Dm 
Now every kid ex
G 
F 
plains a birthright
Hand me down, hand me down,
G 
oh brother
C 
Now it's your turn,
Em 
F 
it's your turn to deliver
Hand me down, hand me down,
G 
oh brother
Em 
C 
Dm 
Am 
F 
What's the measure of a man made to measure?

F 
Am 
It's some privilege to claim
C 
G 
F 
that only the strong survive
Am 
If you can choose the time and place
C 
G 
F 
and what you'll sacrifice
Em 
F 
We'll all get our piece
C 
of the dream
Em 
And the have -nots will have
F 
C 
G 
to take another hit for the team
Dm 
F 
G 
F 
Well that's just how it's always been
Am 
It went something like God and tree,
C 
G 
F 
Adam and Eve and Father pray forgive
Am 
But if I never hear that shit again,
C 
G 
F 
I'll live and live and live
Em 
And whatever made the
F 
C 
world go round before
Em 
E 
F 
C 
Is probably what will keep it going round
G 
after they've gone
Dm 
G 
But for all I know this fall,
F 
the more I don't
Hand me down, hand me down,
G 
oh brother
C 
Now it's your turn,
G 
F 
it's your turn to deliver
Hand me down, hand me down,
G 
oh brother
Em 
C 
G

Am 
F 
man made to measure?
Am 
C 
G 
F 
Made to measure
Am

G 
F 
Am
