Verse 1
F
Well,
G
F
G
F
it seems as a lot of people say
Am
G
F
Change is gonna come some way
Am
Well, it seems to me there
G
F
ain't a whole lot change
G
Maybe it's just a light of day
F
Am
G
Maybe it's just I don't pay
F
enough attention
Am
F
G
Maybe it's just that I can't see
F
Am
But even if there's one
G
F
of us who's hungry
Am
G
F
Boys, well, it ain't enough change for me
G
Oh, someone said the saints,
F
they all were coming
Well, I've been waiting
G
F
around since three
Dm
And I guess if I don't see
G
F
no golden chariot,
G
F
Lord, well, may as well be up to me
Dm
G
Well, I know I'm just a singer,
F
I don't have too many skills
Dm
G
But if I sing enough of these folk songs,
F
maybe I'll pay one or two
of these bigger bills
C
Guess who gets it?
G
F
Every man a new commodity, bribers
C
I'm looking at a needle,
G
F
things are getting pretty tight
C
G
Every rich man over here saying that
F
we don't have some money to pay
C
G
Well I said die, die, die
F
C
I said die, die,
G
F
Am
G
F
Am
die I said die
G
F
Dm
G
Well there's a lot of pretty singers
F
on the internet today
Dm
They all be dancing cool,
G
F
they all have things to say
Am
Like I'm brought to you by this
G
F
and I'm sponsored here by that
Am
Dm
I'm wearing thousand dollar sneakers,
G
F
you too can buy the pillow
where my pampered ass once sat
Dm
Well, once there was a band,
G
F
they were called the MC5
Dm
They said if you ain't part of the solution,
G
F
there ain't no reason to be alive
Am
Dm
Well, I believed in it so much,
G
F
I once wrote it on a shirt
Dm
G
But they sold their soul to Levi's,
F
goddamn it boys, it hurt
Am
Dm
G
But, hell, I still believe in the music,
F
man, if not the band
Dm
And maybe that's the point
G
F
if it ain't a master plan
Dm
G
So keep on singing, kids,
F
and earn yourself some fans
Am
Just don't forget your heart
G
F
and all the ground on
which you stand
C
G
There's a bridge ahead
F
and then a little mountain by
C
But as I'm looking at a needle
G
F
things are getting pretty tight
C
There's a rich man up ahead
G
F
saying if you don't get some money
then you dead
C
G
F
Well I said die, die, die
C
G
F
I said die, die, die, yeah
C
G
F
I said die, die, die, yeah
Am
G
F
Am
G
F
I said die, die, yeah
Am
G
Well, some people in this country
F
Are very quick to believe
That the evils in the world
G
F
Are the ones out on the street
Dm
Well, hell, one day it might be true
G
F
You may get your TV thief
Am
G
But if you look very close at that thief
F
Well, it might be me,
Dm
G
and I ain't sure, brother
F
This suit looks really nice
Dm
G
But if I stole it, sold it
F
Maybe I'll buy some medicine and rice
Dm
And I'll ship it far away,
G
F
far across the seven seas
Am
Maybe I can cure one of them
G
F
so -called African diseases
Am
But I better do it quick
G
F
I hope to God that I don't fail
Cause somewhere
Am
G
someone's kid is dyin'
F
And it ain't a Maryvale
C
G
There's a gate to heaven
F
that I'm lookin' by and by
C
But as I'm lookin' at the needle
G
F
things get pretty tight
C
There's a rich man up ahead
G
F
sayin' if he don't get some money
he'll be dead
C
G

lookin' mighty bright
C

But as I'm lookin' at the needle
F
things get pretty tight

There's a rich man up ahead
G
F
saying if you don't get some money,
you'll be killed
C
G
Well, I said, die, die, die
