Intro: [A6/7sus] x2
Can't taste holy water
Can't find it in the well
Been doing lot of thinking
Thinking about hell
Thinking about the ozone
Thinking about lead
Thinking about the future
And what to do then
CHORUS
The words of Woody Guthrie ringing in my head
The words of Woody Guthrie ringing in my head
Break (same as intro)
Blame it on the system
Or those that came before
Updated consciousness
Knocking on doors
Piecemeal solutions
Will only leave scars
Bandages for nosebleeds
In this city of artificial stars
CHORUS
The words of Woody Guthrie ringing in my head
The words of Woody Guthrie ringing in my head
Intro again
--Play over and over and end with Chorus chords,
