[Verse 3]
Am7                                  D
You can say you're pulling back
     Am7                           Em
We see the pictures everywhere
                    D
But what we don't see is what's
           C
Going on behind the closed doors
         G                        D
And you don't seem to care

Am7                             D
Do you expect me to believe you
Am7                         Em
How can you really think
              D                        C
You can take your horse down to the water
             G
Hold a gun at his head
                         D
And make him drink

[Chorus 2]
C                              G            D                   C
No matter what you say, it never gets any better

No matter what you do, we never see any change

[Interlude]

[Verse 4]
Am7                          D
People living without rights
    Am7                Em
Without their dignity
               D                             C
But how loud does one man have to shout
      G                           D
To earn his right to be free

Am7                             D
You can keep your toy soldiers
        Am7                               Em
To segregate the black and white
                      D
But when the dust settles
               C
And the blood stops running
G                                 D
How do you sleep at night?

[Chorus 2]
C                             G           D                    C
No matter what you say, it never gets any better
C                             G           D                    C
No matter what you do, we never see any change
C                             G           D                    C
No matter what you say, it never gets any better
C                             G           D                    C
No matter what you do, we never see any change

[Verse 5]
Am7                                         D
What makes you so high and mighty
Am7                             Em
What makes you so qualified
               D
You can sit there and say
         C
How many have their freedom
          G                            D
But how many more have died

Am7                         D
You decide to sit in judgement
Am7                        Em
Trying to play God yourself
            D                              C
Oh but someday soon the buck is gonna stop
G                                       D
Stop with you and no one else

[Chorus 2]
C                              G         D                     C 
No matter what you say, it never gets any better
C                              G         D                     C
No matter what you do, we never see any change
C                              G         D                     C
No matter what you say, it never gets any better
C                              G         D                     C
No matter what you do, we never see any change
