Homegrown

A
He was seventeen when he crossed 
state lines
    A
Not old enough to drink, barely old 
enough to drive
   E
A youth self-deputized, he took the 
lives
     E
Of two
     A
But he won't be remembered for 
domesticated terror
    A
It don't fit the agenda if your skin
 can get no fairer,
  E
blue,
The colour of his eyes and the lives
               E
 he's sworn onto



[Chorus]
B        F#m      A    E
You were once a child too
      B    F#m         A    E
Make no mistakе, make no excuse
          E       F#m         A  
From thе highest branch down to 
    E
the roots
    F#m                   A
Dig up the seeds we've so-own

F#m                A           E
Hatred has always been - homegrown



[Verse 2]
    A
We publicize the names of the slayer
 not the slain
       A
And illuminate the way for more from
 where he came
       E                         
False gods on a network wage that 
                          E
are never gonna pay the cost



[Chorus]

B        F#m         A       E
Who were once just children too
      B    F#m         A    E
Make no mistakе, make no excuse
          E       F#m         A  
From thе highest branch down to 
    E
the roots
    F#m                   A
Dig up the seeds we've so-own
F#m                A           E
Hatred has always been - homegrown



[Instrumental Break]



[Verse 3]
    A
We view an execution from the 
comfort of our homes
      A
Due process rendered useless on the 
curbside of a road
       E                           
Hear pleas from humanity to a brute
                E
 with an iron knee



[Chorus]
B         F#m       A    E
But he was once a child too
      B    F#m         A    E
Make no mistakе, make no excuse
          E       F#m         A  
From thе highest branch down to 
    E
the roots
    F#m                   A
Dig up the seeds we've so-own
F#m                A           E
Hatred has always been - homegrown
