Capo 2

Am
You in your fancy
                      C
Material world
Don't see the links of chain
                  G
Binding blood

Am
Our own ancestors
                              C
Are hungry ghosts
Closets so full of bones
                          G
They won't close

*
*B
Call it upward mobility
                  Em                            Am
But you've been sold down the river
Just another form of slavery
               C
And the whole man-made white world
Is your master

Am
You in your fancy
                      C
Material world
Create in your own image
                   G
A supreme god

Am
Your virgin mary
                          C
Your holy ghosts
Claimed to be pure of heart
                                                       G
Have hands that are stained with blood

*
*B
Call it upward mobility
                  Em                            Am
But you've been sold down the river
Just another form of slavery
               C
And the whole man-made white world
Is your master

Am
You in your fancy
                      C
Material world
Don't see the links of chain
     G
Binding

Am
Our own ancestors
                             C
Are hungry ghosts
Closets so full of bones
                          G
They won't close

*
*B
Call it upward mobility
                  Em                            Am
But you've been sold down the river
Just another form of slavery
               C
And the whole man-made white world
Is your master

Am
You in your fancy
                      C
Material world
Don't see the links of chain
    G
Binding
