Tom: Am Am Dm In my dreams I see a fat man E Am On his face is a frown Am Dm Hes got money in his left hand E Am C/B C In his right hes got strings that run all over town Dm Am Dm E As he pulls on them tightly he chokes all, all that grows Am Dm He keeps watch day and nightly E Am and plucks life, Like a rose [Verse 2] Am Dm In my dreams I see the young men E Am That will change history Am Dm They will die for the fat man E Am C/B C As he laughs so care-less-ly Dm Am Dm E In his laughter I hear the sorrow from the pain that it brings Am Dm I hear mothers weeping softly E Am Wrapped up tightly, in his strings [Verse 3] Am Dm Cut the strings from his fingers E Am Wrap them twice around his throat Am Dm Show him not your kind mercy E Am C/B C From the laws that he forgot he wrote Dm Am Let us know of that which binds us, Dm E that which steals all that grows Am Am That which kills what defines us E Am To be plucked, like a rose
