The American Seam
The chords for this song are C and F
they are played in a regular strum,
playing individually and
playing down to up with a slow strum
for the speaking part
C I forsee F the american dream
C but all is not F as it leans
flock towards me in puddles and streams
for the opportunities of bootleg jeans
the rational writhed and screamed
for the mass of fabricated dreams
people's and person's actual needs
like their souls and mouths to feed
Chorus:Refrao
consumerism personifies the weed
but was not born from a seed
merely created
I was born a british
and therefore do not possess the fetish
needed to acquire the english (Chorus)
everybody pray to the west
put the burdens off your chest
whether you make your own path is the test
my empathy and sympathy is not enough to save you
you encourage yourself and around this they build the zoo
Chorus:Refrao
consumerism personifies the weed
but was not born from a seed
merely created
i've been a part of it to
the system I have broke on through
i'm not quite on the other side
I needed to develop reliable ties
on which I could rely
then the limits would be defined by the sky
and of course buy my mind
C > F (play from down to up dragging your finger)
happiness is your own
find it according to your own rules
enlightenment and entitlement are not the same thing
