Down With America

Jul 26, 2022

—

We’ve gone East, West, North and South
But now this country needs to go down

( E E )

                     E
We’ve got a high calling for adventure
        E                             B
And high-dollar hiking boots
                E
Bringing highly refined culture
                             B                              E
With knives that stab and guns that shoot (pew)
             A
And in search for unspotted land
       E
For unspoiled men to claim
            B
Just because it’s beneath us
                             B   B      A   A B
Doesn’t mean it’s beneath us to say

A
Down with America
       E                B
Dig down, dig down
    E                          A
A new world underneath us
                    B                   E
Yep, that’s where we’re bound
A
Down with America
       E                B
Dig down, dig down
                       E                  A
Claiming our manifest destination
           B                 E
Underneath the ground

          E
We’ll poke and probe Mother Earth
        E                          B
And hope something turns up
             E
But no matter what we unearth
                    B                      E
We’ll find a way to make it burn up
                A
If there’s people living down there
          E
We’ll show them we’re not jerks
          B
We’ll learn them all how to dress proper
        B     B         A        A    B
And put them straight to work

A
Down with America
       E                B
Dig down, dig down
E                              A
Scraping out every last ounce
            B                   E
Of the treasure we found
A
Down with America
       E                B
Dig down, dig down
            E                                  A
We’re doing our part, leaving our mark
                B        E
From the inside out
