C G
Catch me this morning
Em
My head is undone
C G
Curse my eyes
Em
And cut out my tongue
C G
The hunger of man
Em
For blood and the gun
C G
A pox on you
Em
And a pox on your sons
C G Em
Is this how the west was won?
C G
Sons and daughters
Em
With no light to follow
C G
Where rivers ran deep
Em
All now is shallow
C G
From the valley of tears
Em
To the mountain of sorrow
C G
No turning the tide
Em
No past in tomorrow
C G Em
Is this how the west was won?
C G
You piss down their backs
Em
And tell them it's rain
C G
But they've seen your faces
Em
They know who to blame
C G
You burn all the books
Em
And change all the names
C G
But the spirit lives on
Em
It won't go away
C G Em
Is this how the west was won?

C G
Do I have enough years
Em
To understand if I can
C G
Why another should bury
Em
Your language and land?
C G
Cold the heart
Em
And savage the hand
C G
That takes from another
Em
What he can't understand
C G Em
Is this how the west was won?
( C G Em )
