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

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

[Interlude]

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

Am    C       F    Am          C         F      Gsus G Fsus F
Some way, somehow, we will 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                   G
Main Street's boarded up now the whole town's asleep
Dm          Am           C                       F
Mom 'n pop got boarded up in a small business retreat
Bb                   A                  G            F
Display windows and broken glass, not a car on the street
Am          C        F    Am          C       F    Gsus G Fsus F
Out at the big box store people 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             G
Might not make it to full time at Walmart
F              C                   G
Still standing by for the call to work

[Interlude]
Dm  Am  C  G     Dm  Am  C  F

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

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