verse 1 

A 
Come sit down  
     D              A 
Your name is on the table 
  D                    A 
Between the graves and cradles 
  E                F#m E 
Before the old and new 
A                  D             A 
Wait your turn and smile for the papers  
    D               A            E 
The sanders and the shapers will have their way with you  

    A                  
And shake the hands of masters  
      D 
While outside insurrection 
    F#m 
The sound can’t be mistaken 
      D                   
So pretend like you don’t know them  
    A 
And say you’re goin' beyond it  
       D             F#m 
You're ready for some peace 
            D               F#m           E             A   
And who can argue with that argument when no one says a thing? 

verse 2 

A                   D              A 
Come kneel down and beg for some redemption  
    D                    A  
You finally learned your lesson 
     E              F#m 
That this is how we change 
E-  A        
Not here nor there 
   D          A 
No patriot or traitor 
       D                  A 
You’ve learned to sit for supper 
           E               
And you’re sleeping in your cage 
    A 
Its politics as normal  
    D 
Its votes and views and morals 
F#m                               D 
None of which mean nothing to the people kept in storage  
    A 
Who wake up in the morning  
    D                 F#m 
The nights are in your hands 
             D                F#m            E                 A     A 
At least the smashers and the crashers know exactly where they stand

That we can’t afford no liberals in times like these 
A                               D 
On our feet or on our backs and they're on their knees  
       F#m                         D     A    E   
No, we can’t afford no liberals in times like these

verse 3 

A 
Come lay down 
        D            A 
They’ll put you underwater 
     D           A  
Like clay unto a potter  
        E              F#m  E 
They'll wash the dirty clean 
      A                    D             A 
Let’s hear your plan for a Natural World Order  
     D                A 
Free trade across the borders  
      E 
Gas efficient war machine 
    A 
The debt tree needs a trimming  
    D 
The poison earth needs weeding 
     F#m 
Your houses are sinking 
        D 
And the seas they are rising 
     A 
It’s all so inconvenient 
      D                F#m 
Let’s stall it while we can 
           D           F#m 
And so its business as usual 
         E         A    A 
Give the liberal a hand
