CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: [C] [G] [F] [C] [F] [C] [G]
[C]Down here on the corner of [G]ruin and grace
[F]I'm growing weary of the [C]human race
[F]Hold my lamp up in [C]everyone's face
I'm [G]looking for an honest man
[C]Everyone tied to the [G]turning wheel
[F]Everyone hiding from the [C]things they feel
When the [F]truth's so hard, it just [C]don't seem real
The [G]shadow across this [C]land
[C]People 'round here don't [G]know what it means
To [F]suffer at the hands of our A[C]merican dreams
They [F]turn their backs on the [C]grisly scenes
Trac[G]ed to the privileged sons
They [C]got their god, they [G]got their guns
[F]Got their armies and the [C]chosen ones
But we'll [F]all be burning in the [C]same big sun
When the [G]great correction [C]comes [F] [C] [Dm]
[CHORUS]
Down through the ages, lov[Em]ers of the mystery [Dm]
Been saying, "People, let your love light [C]shine" [Dm]
Poets and sages al[Em]l throughout history [F]
Say the light burns brightest in the dark[G]est tim[F]es [Em] [Dm]
It's the [C]bitter end we've [G]come down to
The [F]eye of the needle that we [C]gotta get through
But the [F]end could be the start of [C]something new
When the [G]great correction [C]comes
INSTRUMENTAL: [C] [G] [F] [C] [F] [C] [G] [C] [G] [F] [C] [F] [C] [G] [C] [Dm]
[CHORUS]
Down through the ages, lov[Em]ers of the mystery [Dm]
Been saying, "People, let your love light [C]shine" [Dm]
Poets and sages al[Em]l throughout history [F]
Say the light burns brightest in the dar[G]kest tim[F]es [Em] [G]
[C]Down to the wire [G]running out of time
[F]Still got hope in this [C]heart of mine
But [F]the future waits on the [C]horizon line
For our [G]daughters and our sons
[C]I don't know where [G]this train's bound
[F]Whole lotta people trying to [C]turn it around
Gonna [F]shout 'til the walls come [C]tumbling down
And the [G]great correction [C]comes [G] [F] [C] [F]
Don't [C]let me down
When the [G]great correction [C]comes
