Em C
Iʼve been selling my soul, working all day.
G D
Overtime hours, for bullshit pay.
Em C
So I can sit out here, and waste my life away.
G D
Drag back home, and drink my troubles away.
Pre-Chorus: Em C
Itʼs a damn shame, what the worlds gotten to.
G D
For people like me, and people like you.
Em C
Wish I could just wake up, and it not be true.
G D
But it is, aw it is.
Chorus: Em C
Livin in the new world
G D
With an old soul.
Em C
These rich men north of Richmond lord knows they all
G D
Just wanna have total control
Em C
Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do.
G D
And they dont think you know, but i know that you do.
Em C
Cause your dollar ainʼt shit, and itʼs taxed to no end
G D
Cause of ri-ch men, north of Richmond.
Instrumental:Em C G D Em C
I wish politicians would look out for miners.
G D
And not just minors on an island somewhere.
Em C
Lord we got folks in the street, with nothin to eat.
G D
And the obese, milkinʼ welfare.
Em C
But god if your five foot three, and three hundred pounds.
G D
Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds.
Em C
Young men are puttin themselves six feet in the ground.
G D
Cause all this damn country does, is keep on kickinʼ them down.
Pre-Chorus: Em C
Lord itʼs a damn shame, what the worlds gotten to.
G D
For people like me, and people like you.
Em C
Wish I could just wake up, and it not be true.
G D
But it is, aw it is.
Chorus: Em C
Livin in the new world
G D
With an old soul.

These rich men north of Richmond lord knows they all
G D
Just wanna have total control
Em C
Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do.
G D
And they dont think you know, but i know that you do.

Cause your dollar ainʼt shit, and itʼs taxed to no end

Cause of ri-ch men, north of Richmond.
