G                    A

G                    A
It will not be for long
G                    A
It will not be for long
G                    A    G A

A               G        A G A
But the money's running
G                    A         G A

A               G        A G A
But the money's running

G                    A
Say the dollar dollar drop down real low
G                    A
And you ain't got no gold to show

Gonna take the shit right nice and low
G                    A
We're not gonna come back no more
G

A
The people always dying
G                    A
And nothing's ever gonna change
G
I said my momma's always cryin'
A
Sister's always lying
G                    A
And nothing's ever gonna change

A                G            A
That's why I say turn me loose
G                    A
Turn me loose
G                    A
Take the sheet's off from off my feet
G                                 A
I wanna run to the rhythm and the beat
G                    A                   G
Cause it's so long since I've had you by my side
A
Oh Lord
G                    A                G   A
But I wake and take this fighting anymore

G                    A
So I'm leaving this babylon
G                    A
I'm leaving this babylon
G                    A
Will not be for long
G                    A
Will not be for long

G                    A
You can hear my rhythm
G                    A
Even my Irene
G               A G                    A
They are the ones who will satisfy you oh Lord
G                    A
And they will try
G                    A
Try in every way Lord
G                    A
To run your life
G                    A
Mmm, trouble in the land
