C Em F G
Liberty Belle is ringing out across the sea
C Em
And everyone sings along
F G
Though she's singing way out of key
F G
From the shores of Galilee
F G
To the runways of Anglesey
[Chorus]
C F G
You know we're digging to hell
C F G
Right past our oil wells
Am Em F G
As the magpies fly from Tallahassee
C F G
To the sky
[Verse]
C Em F G
Memory Lane forgot her way after all this time
C Em F
And she never learned from her mistakes
G
And all the crime
F G
That caused the gulf of misery
F G
That's separating you from me
[Chorus]
C F G
You know we're digging to hell
C F G
Drowing in our oil wells
Am Em F G
As the seagulls fly from Abu Dhabi
C F G
To the sky
[Bridge]
F Dm7 Am7
The birds still sing their melodies
F Dm7 Am7
Songs of love and food and trees
Oh my, how they fly
F Dm7
So little do they know, yeah
Am7
Yet their days are numbered so
F G C F G
Alarms are ringing in the trees
[Chorus]
C F G
You know you're digging to hell
C F G
Drowning in your oil wells
Am Em F
As the ashes fly from New York City
G Am Em F
Past the grimy clouds above New Jersey
G Am Em F
Past the kids who like to smoke like chimneys
G C
To the sky
