Mistress America

G D/F# Em There was a song you used to play C C/B Am D/F# Before they drove you away Em D/F# G C And I remember every stroke Am G F D/F# Of every chord you played G D/F# Em In the room they gave the band C C/B Am D/F# I thought I heard you say Em D/F# G C That rock 'n' roll's the perfect scam Am G F D/F# But it's a crime that doesn't pay G D/F# But for mistress America Em D/F# I'm gonna get a gun C D/F# G D/F# And learn the words to all of your songs G D/F# Em D/F# Mistress America, smile for the camera C D/F# G D/F# I think we're gonna make it this timе C D/F# Am G Think we're gonna be finе G D/F# Em And I had never prayed before C C/B Am D/F# But if it keeps the devil from your door Em D/F# G C I'll kneel down and bruise my knees Am G F D/F# On your hard linoleum floors G D/F# Em 'Cause I thought I saw the light C C/B Am D/F# But it was just a satellite station Em D/F# G C Just another human creation Am G F D/F# Where you gonna run to now?
