[Verse 1]
Dm
Joy beats oppression but oppression will make you pay
F
Cause our joy is fleeting
C
Oppression never goes away
Dm
You look them right in the eye
F                        C
You stare and shout them down

But joy, our joy
Dm
Don't really care for fighting
F                          C
While oppression will wait around for you to blink
Dm
Joy beats oppression
                             F   C
But oppression will make you pay

[Chorus]
Dm                   F             C
Speak up, black out, black listed, full bodied red
Dm                   F             C
Speak up, black out, black listed, full bodied red

[Verse 2]
Dm
He gave us everything he could

But he got tired man
F                     C
We all get tired when we ain't thinking so good
Dm
When he got tired this country
             F
It took back every damn thing
C
That it god damn could
Dm
Bullies always take back what they can
F                                  C
From the free, from the poor lucky drunks

Who just don't give a damn
Dm                                               F   C
This country will always take back everything it can

[Chorus]
Dm                   F             C
Speak up, black out, black listed, full bodied red
Dm                   F             C
Speak up, black out, black listed, full bodied red

[Bridge pt 1]
Dm
He wasn't in it for himself

He was in it for you and me
F
But he fought it alone

And that makes you bitter and mean
Dm
For a while this could be so good
    F
For tonight we make the rules

Here inside this club
Dm
Me and the girls are here to tell you
        F
They're fucking with you

'cause they want what you have
Dm
Things are really pretty damn funny
F
Things ain't really quite so bad

[Bridge pt 2]
Take this one thing with you to home...
  Dm               Dm               F                C
