Am
You in your fancy
              C
Material world
Don't see the links of chain
           G
Binding blood
 
 
Am
Our own ancestors
                  C
Are hungry ghosts
Closets so full of bones
                G
They won't close

*B
Call it upward mobility
            Em                 Am
But you've been sold down the river
Just another form of slavery
         C
And the whole man-made white world
Is your master
 
 
Am
You in your fancy
              C
Material world
Create in your own image
            G
A supreme god
 
 
Am
Your virgin mary
                C
Your holy ghosts
Claimed to be pure of heart
                                   G
Have hands that are stained with blood
 
*
*B
Call it upward mobility
            Em                 Am
But you've been sold down the river
Just another form of slavery

And the whole man-made white world
Is your master

You in your fancy

Material world
Don't see the links of chain

Our own ancestors

They won't close
