The Great Correction

INTRO: C  G  F  C  F  C  G

C                          G
Down here on the corner of ruin and 
grace
F                        C
I'm growing weary of the human race
F                  C
Hold my lamp up in everyone's face
    G
I'm looking for an honest man


C                    G
Everyone tied to the turning wheel
F                        C
Everyone hiding from the things they
 feel
         F                        
When the truth's so hard, it just 
C
don't seem real
    G                  C
The shadow across this land


C                        G
People 'round here don't know what 
it means
   F                         
To suffer at the hands of our 
  C
American dreams
     F                       C
They turn their backs on the grisly 
scenes
    G
Traced to the privileged sons


     C                   G
They got their god, they got their 
guns

F                        C
Got their armies and the chosen ones
          F                     C
But we'll all be burning in the same
 big sun
         G                C      
When the great correction comes
F  C  Dm



CHORUS:
                          Em       
Down through the ages, lovers of 
           Dm
the mystery
Been saying, "People, let your love 
      C       Dm
light shine"
                  Em          
Poets and sages all throughout 
         F
history
Say the light burns brightest in the
     G      F  Em  Dm
 darkest times


         C                G
It's the bitter end we've come down 
to
    F                         C
The eye of the needle that we gotta 
get through
        F                         
But the end could be the start of 
C
something new
         G                C

C                G
Down to the wire running out of time
F                      C
Still got hope in this heart of mine
    F                       C
But the future waits on the horizon 
line
        G
For our daughters and our sons


C                  G
I don't know where this train's 
bound
F                            C
Whole lotta people trying to turn it
 around
      F                        
Gonna shout 'til the walls come 
 C
tumbling down
        G                C      G
