Vultures Of Culture - Nahko Bear

This representation of the song is based off the first song of the Acoustic Guitar Sessions video here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qceQTn6qD8w&nohtml5=False

It is all the same chords as the studio version with only some varying lyrics.
I recommend watching the video or finding the song in order to get the rhythm of the strumming down.

Main chord progression that repeats through whole song:

E G# A


[Bridge] (3rd time only end w/)
B B Bb A A Am
e|------------7----7--6--5----5-- |--5---|
B|------------7----7--6--5----5-- |--5---|
G|------------8----8--7--6----6-- |--5---|
D|--4--5--6---9----9--8--7----7-- |--7---|
A|--5--6--7---9----9--8--7----7-- |--7---|
E|------------7----7--6--5----5-- x3 |--5---|


[CHORUS]
E G# A
it all starts to make sense
E G# A
it all starts to make sense
E G# A
with all these omens we've been calling it the end
E G# A
it all starts to make sense

[VERSE]
E
all my thoughts
G#
and particularly my prayers
A
have not forgotten the indigenous
E G# A
for the western man has been working so hard against us
E G# A
with his western medicine and his land management and his fences uhuh
E G# A
or the way he protects and the way he preserves and the way he neglects the people who came first
E G# A
you know the same ones that he massacred

[CHORUS]
E G# A
it all starts to make sense
E G# A
where we're going where we're at and where we've been
E G# A
it all starts to make sense

[VERSE]
E
well creator
G#
the behavior
A E
of the collective youth definitely seems to be in favor
G# A
of the western mans invasion
E
I see em pumping fear like an IV
G#
spreading like a disease
A
and all the while building the crudest army
E G#
of god-fearing youth with no knowledge of the truth
A
and their selfishness is so ugly

[CHORUS]
E G# A
and it all starts to make sense
E G# A
who we gotta talk to if we wanna survive this mess(talk to your children please)
E G# A
it all starts to make sense

[VERSE]
E G#
itty-bitty economy based on geography
A
fueled by spectators and their money
E G# A
and their need for things that will not last
E G# A
so go on build a hotel a gift shop in the wilderness
E G#
making a profit capitalizin' on it
A
and all the while trampling on everything that is sacred

[CHORUS]
E G# A
and it all starts to make sense
E G# A
why the western man destroys thing he doesn't understand
E G# A
it all starts to make sense
E G# A
all these patterns and wasteful destructive practices


[BRIDGE+BREAKDOWN]


[VERSE]
E G#
living like a third world country inside this country
A
fuck the government that puts the people in poverty
E G#
and it bothers me when the people are going hungry
A
and corporate comanpnies have got their cupboards full of groceries
E G#
it's disgusting how you can do nothing
A
and complain about the situation in which you're living

[CHORUS]
E G# A
it all starts to make sense
E G# A
they're vultures of culture and they're picking it all my friends
E G# A
it all starts to make sense
E G# A
oh indigenous Empowerment

[VERSE]
E G#
well I dedicate my life to the people who need the light
A
help them rise above the scam on the land and their lives
E G#
cutting like a knife all the lies by the slice
A
independant of this democracy is really worth it
E G#
my request is reasonable, a tribe undefeatable
A
ambition to keep movin' towards solutions that are feasible
E
it's unbelieveable
G#
all the slow moving people
A
they could care less just as long as they are comfortable
E G#
it's unforgivable because the conditions are now critical
A
whether or not you're ready we are now approaching the pinnacle
E G#
it's difficult to say exactly what to do
A
but the change begins with me and I reflect it back to you
E G# A
and you and you and you (come on man)
E G# A
make the movement move
E G# A
make the movement move

make the movement move

[CHORUS]
E G# A
it all starts to make sense
E G# A
it all starts to make sense
E G# A
it all starts to make sense
E G# A E
it all starts to make sense

That's it! Go make the movement move!
