If you lift your pointer finger before each chord (and twice during the Fmaj7), you can do the little hammer-on thing you hear in the recording. Also, I'll show you the little Am lick for the chorus down below.

Intro

Am Am C Fmaj7 We raise the flags and statues to our mission Am C Fmaj7 we've spoken out in slogans and in campaigns Am C Fmaj7 talked and talked on almost every issue Am C Fmaj7 where oppression of the masses is the constant theme Am C Fmaj7 but what does this mean to a little town in Iowa? Am C Fmaj7 where the jobs have gone downstream down south and out Am C Fmaj7 where their fingers used to work to the bone all day Am C Fmaj7 profits rise and fall and starvation is a game Am Asus2

{tab: |----------| C Fmaj7}

where is the food that used to cover their table? Am Asus2 C Fmaj7 where is the sense of pride at the end of the day? Am Asus2 C Fmaj7 to the face of a thriving corporation Am Asus2 C Fmaj7 what could a dying family possibly say? Am C Fmaj7 on the face of every American worker Am C Fmaj7 is the constant fear that their job will not remain Am C Fmaj7 as the CEO. is planning his vacation Am C Fmaj7 to k**l or be killed is the nature of the beast C (ring) Fmaj7 stand in line take a number you sell your soul Am then watch it crumble Fmaj7 into a pile of rubble that used to be Am C your job, your life your family's daily bread Fmaj7 dry and stale malnourished kids Am C Fmaj7 the house is sold for a degrading bid Am C Fmaj7 do we continue to talk or do we take a hammer Am to their chains to their chains Fmaj7 Am to their chains!
