[Verse 1]
     B
When freedom is in hiding from morality
                                  Ebm
when you've finally scrubbed this great land clean
of the values you hold in such high esteem
            B
When you've finally divorced the numbers from the names
       Ebm
we can return to your good old days bound and gagged by sex and race
B
chained by family crazed by god while

[Chorus]
    Ebm                          E
We raise the flag shout down the past
              Gbm                   E
the stars and stripes stream by at half mast
          Ebm           E        Gb          Ebm
your eyes well up with tears and yeah so do mine

[Verse 2]
  B
I never knew
             Ebm
The high price of hypocrisy you pledge allegiance to the death penalty
B
believe in your drug war bow down to the TV set
    Ebm
you need to cultivate that apathy
            B                  Ebm
That swells inside your troat
            B
That swells inside your troat

[Chorus]
    Ebm                          E
We raise the flag shout down the past
              Gbm                   E
the stars and stripes stream by at half mast
          Ebm           E        Gb          Ebm     B
your eyes well up with tears and yeah so do mine

Ebm        B
half mast, divided
Ebm        B
half mast, overloaded
Ebm        B
half mast, who the fuck cares
