[VERSE]
Workin' in the fields
Till you get your back burned
Workin' 'neath the wheel
Till you get your facts learned
Baby I got my facts
Learned real good right now
You better get it straight darling
Poor man wanna be rich,
Rich man wanna be king
And a king ain't satisfied
Till he rules everything
I wanna go out tonight,
I wanna find out what I got

[BREAK]
Well I believe in the love that you gave me
I believe in the faith that could save me
I believe in the hope
and I pray that some day
It may raise me above these

[CHORUS]
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
And these badlands start treating us good

INSTRUMENTAL: SOLO OVER VERSE CHORDS

[E]Mmmmmmmm, M[A]mmmm, M[B]mmmmm -- 4x's
For the o[E]nes who had a notion,
A n[A]otion deep ins[B]ide
That it [E]ain't no sin
To be gl[A]ad you're ali[B]ve
I wanna f[E]ind one face
That a[A]in't looking thr[B]ough me
I wanna fi[E]nd one place,
I wanna sp[A]it in the f[B]ace of these b[E]adlands

[CHORUS]
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
And these badlands start treating us good
