[Intro]
N.C.
2,3 4!
Em Em Em Em

[Verse 1]
Em
The world ain't how it used to be
Em B
When I was watching it on the TV screen
B
When I went to school
B
They taught to me
B Em
A revisionist version of history
Em
Where MLK was never shot by the FBI
Em B
And every war we've ever been in was justified
B7 B7
Where the judges and the juries are colorblind
B7 Em
And our worst days are long left behind

[Chorus]
C B
But that is not the world I see when I look at what's right in front of me
B7
The cops keep killing and we all watch
Em
They get two weeks of paid time off
C
We all still watch the genocide
B
But look away when we get tired
B7
We still salute the war machine
Em
Until the soldiers come back and need somewhere to sleep oh yeah

[Break]
(Brass solo)
Em Em Em Em

[Verse 2]
Em
This ain't the world you promised me
Em B
No it's nothing like you said it'd be
B Em
We live to work until we work to death for a CEO we've never met
Em B
They said "Everyone trust the government 'cause criminals can't be president"
B7
And politicians only represent
Em
The people who elected them

[Chorus]
C B
But that is not the world I see when I look at what's right in front of me
B7
The poor stay poor and then drop dead
Em
The rich get richer off their blood and sweat
