The Git Go

      Em                     Am
It's been that way since the git go
     B7                       Em
It's been that way since the git go
     Em                      Am
It's been that way since the git go
          B7               Em
Lord it's always been that way

[Verse 1]
      Em                         
Woman shined the apple, and the 
B7               Em
man had to take a bite
      Em                           
Anything that good, God knows, just
            B7
 had to be right
          Em
Well they woke up naked with a big 
headache
 Am
He been done in by a slippery snake
  Em                     B7   
a man and a woman get to live a 
                       Em
while and then they die

[Chorus]
      Em                     Am
It's been that way since the git go
     B7                       Em
It's been that way since the git go
     Em                      Am
It's been that way since the git go
          B7               Em
Lord it's always been that way

[Verse 2]
      Em                         
Politicians make promises that 
B7        Em
they can't keep
      Em                           
They keep printin' money ‘till they
                 B7
 get in way too deep

          Em
It's the same old lesson, they never
 learn,
 Am
They're too busy workin' on their 
next term
  Em                     B7       
Politicians keep makin' fools out 
          Em
of you and me

[Chorus]
      Em                     Am
It's been that way since the git go
     B7                       Em
It's been that way since the git go
     Em                      Am
It's been that way since the git go
          B7               Em
Lord it's always been that way

[Verse 3]
      Em               B7         
Money breeds war, as long as 
          Em
there's a man alive
      Em                        
Rich kids go to college, and the 
            B7
poor kids fight
          Em
High-rollers crap out ev'ry time,
 Am
roll a soldier's bones like loaded 
dice
   Em                 B7          
War is the beast that makes ev'ry 
       Em
mother cry

[Chorus]
      Em                     Am
It's been that way since the git go
     B7                       Em
It's been that way since the git go
     Em                      Am
It's been that way since the git go
          B7               Em
Lord it's always been that way

[Verse 4]
      Em                     B7   
He told the truth, and they hung 
         Em
him up to die
      Em                          B7
The son of God who created you and I
          Em
He said it in the Good Book and 
letters in red
 Am
But we keep on forgettin' ev'ry 
thing He said
   Em                     B7      
Jesus Christ hung on the cross for
        Em
 you and I

[Chorus]
      Em                     Am
It's been that way since the git go
     B7                       Em
It's been that way since the git go
     Em                      Am
It's been that way since the git go
          B7               Em
Lord it's always been that way

[Chorus]
      Em                     Am
It's been that way since the git go
     B7                       Em
It's been that way since the git go
     Em                      Am
It's been that way since the git go
          B7               Em
Lord it's always been that way
