Wasteland Of The Free - Written By Iris Dement
>From The Album "The Way I Should" - Iris DeMent
=====================================================
[Intro]
C Am G C
Living in the wasteland of the free
G C
We got preachers dealin' in politics and diamond mines
G C
And their speech is growing increasingly unkind
Am
They say they are Christ's disciples
F
But they don't look like Jesus to me
C G C
And it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
G C
We got politicians runnin' races on corporate cash
G C
Now don't tell me they don't turn around and kiss them people's ass
Am
Now you may call me old-fashioned
F
But that don't fit my picture of a true democracy
C G C
And it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
G C
We got C E O's makin' two hundred times the workers pay
G C
But they'll fight like hell against raising the minimum wage
Am
And if you don't like it mister
F
They'll ship your job to some third world country 'cross the sea
C G C
And it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
[Chorus]
F G C
Living in the wasteland of the free
E Am
Where the poor have now become the enemy
F C
Let's blame our troubles on the weak ones
E Am F
Sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy
G C
Living in the wasteland of the free
G C
We got little kids with guns fighting inner-city wars
G C
So, what do we do, we put these little kids behind prison doors
Am
And we call ourselves the advanced civilisation
F
But that sounds like crap to me
C G C
And it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
G C
We got high school kids runnin' 'round in Calvin Klein and Guess
G C
Who cannot pass a sixth grade reading test
Am
But if you ask them, they can tell you
F
The name of every crotch on MTV
C G C
And it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
G C
We kill for oil then throw a party when we win
G C
Some guy refuses to fight and we call that the sin
Am
But he's standin' up for what he believes in
F
And that seems pretty damned American to me
C G C
And it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
[Chorus]
F G C
Living in the wasteland of the free
E Am
Where the poor have now become the enemy
F C
Let's blame our troubles on the weak ones
E Am F
Sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy
G C
Living in the wasteland of the free
F C
Whilst we sit gloating in our greatness
E Am
Justice is sinking to the bottom of the sea
F G C
Living in the wasteland of the free
F G C
Living in the wasteland of the free
F G C
Living in the wasteland of the free
