[Verse]
Dm               Am           C 
Plunderco got in money trouble 
                 G
had to break the law
Dm                 Am          C
Had to balance the fine against 
                F
the benefit to all
Bb              A                
Made a business decision to pay 
   G                  F
the fine and break the law
Am   C     F     Am   C       
Too big to fail, too rich for 
F        Gsus G Fsus F
jail

[Chorus]
F                  C             
They can live with that so why 
    G
don't we
F                 C              
After all they're just like you 
   G
and me
F               C                
They cast their votes and no one 
       G
gets excited
F                C          G
Because they are Citizens United

[Verse]
Dm                    Am    
In the streets of the capital 
 C                  G
corporations are taking control
Dm          Am    C          F
Democracy crushed  at their feet
Bb            A               
Money flows free from the sky to 
    G               F
those who come along

Am    C       F    Am          
Some way, somehow, we will 
C         F      Gsus G Fsus F
prevail, but now

[Chorus]
F           C           G
How can we regain our freedom
F            C                G
Lost by our own laws we must abide
F             C              G
When will we take back our freedom
F              C               G
To choose the way we live and die

[Verse]
Dm             Am           C   
Main Street's boarded up now the
                G
 whole town's asleep
Dm          Am           C      
Mom 'n pop got boarded up in a 
                 F
small business retreat
Bb                   A           
Display windows and broken glass,
       G            F
 not a car on the street
Am          C        F    Am   
Out at the big box store people
       C       F    Gsus G Fsus F
 lined up for more

[Chorus]
F               C            G
People working part-time at Walmart
F               C           G
Never get the benefits for sure
F                     C          
Might not make it to full time at
   G
 Walmart
F              C                  
Still standing by for the call to 
 G
work

[Verse]
Dm                    Am  
Corporations have feelings, 
 C                   G
corporations have soul
Dm             Am             C 
That's why they're like people 
                 F
just harder to control
Bb                  A            
They don't want to fall, so when 
      G                  F
they fall, they fall on you
Am   C     F     Am   C       
Too big to fail, too rich for 
F        Gsus G Fsus F

[Verse]
F                    C           
From the capital to the 
   G
boarded-up main streets
F                 C             G
Big Business is there at every turn
F                 C              
From the food we eat to the 
       G
clothes we wear to the TV screen
F                 C              
From the air we breathe to the 
       G
fuel we burn
