Petroleum Distillation

A             D                  
Been having a hard time trying to
E     D
 justify
A           D              E    
The clouds arising from the cars
     D
 we drive
A                D                
And a little too easy seems just a
 E                 D
 little too hard today
A                 D              
And I'm afraid my children are 
       E                 D     
going to have to watch the world 
       A D E D
waste away

[Verse 2]
A             D                   
Been having a hard time trying to 
E          D
accept the fact
A                D               
Paying money for four walls 
      E         D
leaves the slavery intact
A                D                
And a little too easy seems just a
 E                 D
 little too hard today
A                 D              
And I'm afraid my children are 
       E                 D     
going to have to watch the world 
       A D E D
slip away

[Chorus]
A         G#              F#m   
I know, I know, I know, I know, 
D                    A
life has become slavery
          G#              F#m   D
I know, I know, I know, I know, 
                    A
life has become slavery
          G#              F#m   D
I know, I know, I know, I know, 
                    A G# F#m     D
life has become slavery,  slavery

[Verse 3]
A                   D       
Costs two dollars a minute and 
              E                  D
additional charges to pray to god 
today

A             D             
See I've been looking for some 
                    E              
guidance but the voice on the phone
                D
 ain't got a damn thing to say
A                D                
And a little too easy seems just a
 E                 D
 little too hard today
A                 D              
And I'm afraid my children are 
       E                 D     
going to have to watch the world 
       A D E D
fade away

[Verse 4]
A                   D            
I was born a little too late to 
   E                   D
see the dream that they called 
America
A                  D             
See I only want to be a free man 
         E                        
but it's against the law to sleep on
D
 the ground in god's land
A                D                
And a little too easy seems just a
 E            D
 little bit insane
A                  D             
And I'm afraid I'm gonna have to 
           E                 D    
run for my life one of these days,
               A  D E D
 one of these days

[Chorus]
A         G#              F#m   
I know, I know, I know, I know, 
D                    A
life has become slavery
          G#              F#m   D
I know, I know, I know, I know, 
                    A
life has become slavery
          G#              F#m   D
I know, I know, I know, I know, 
                    A G# F#m     D
life has become slavery,  slavery

A C# F#m E D

A   C#          F#m        E    
The earth is my body, it's been 
   D
poisoned with lead and junk food and
 toxic waste
A   C#        F#m            E 
The sky is my mind it's been 
           D
clouded with cigarettes and 
fluorocarbons and petroleum 
distillates
A   C#         F#m              
The water's my heart, it's been 
E           D
broken with booze and drugs and 
shooting up paste
A   C#        F#m          E   
The sun is my spirit, it 
     D                             
belongs to all of us, I guess we're
        A C# F#m E D
 all one sick race

A G# F#m E D

[Otro]
    A     C#       F#m    E     
And autonomy shall reward itself 
D
with freedom
      A   C#       F#m    E     
And humility shall reward itself 
D
with peace
        A    C#     F#m   E     
And the dissolution of 
          D
possession and the integration of 
humanity
A           C#      F#m     E   
Shall bring forth a sharing of our 
   D
responsibility
        A C# F#m E D
For our lives
        A C# F#m E D
And our earth
        A C# F#m E D
For our lives
        A C# F#m E D A
And our earth
