Rise Against - People Live Here
Off their latest album The Black Market
3/4 timing, tuned down half a step

Verse 1
Am F C

Am G F
From the penthouse to the holy martyr
Am G F
Sea to shining sea
Am G F
From the coffins full of kindergarteners
Am G F
Is this what you call free?

From the hate that drips from all your crosses
Am G F
Are your hands so clean?
Am G F
There's a wildfire and it's spreading far
Am G F G
From sea to shining sea
