[Verse]
G
They say
G7 C Am7
George Washington’s yielding his power and stepping away
D7 G
‘Zat true?
G7 C Am7 D7
I wasn’t aware that was something a person could do
Em
I’m perplexed
G C Am7
Are they gonna keep on replacing whoever’s in charge?
D7 Em
If so, who’s next?
G C
There’s nobody else in their country who looms quite as large…
D7sus4
A sentinel whispers in King George’s ear
D7sus4
John Adams?!
G
I know him
G7
That can’t be
C Am7
That’s that little guy who spoke to me
D7 G
All those years ago
G7
What was it, eighty-five?
C Cm7
That poor man, they’re gonna eat him alive!
D7 Em
Oceans rise
G
Empires fall
C Cm7
Next to Washington, they all look small
D7 Em
All alone
G
Watch them run
C Am7
They will tear each other into pieces
D7 G
Jesus Christ, this will be fun!
