Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Fantastic song off of "I Used To Be So Young". The intro is the only complicated part; listen to the song to
get the rhythm for the tabbed bit (which you can also play for the [Break]). If you have other songs by this
guy that you want tabbed out, just leave a comment and I'll try to figure it out.

G
Happy Fourth of July everyone
I hope the BBQ and beer treat you right
C G
I heard that freedom, isn't really free
D C G
That doesn't mean it's okay to kill other people
D C G
Because they come from different blood than you
D C G Em
And please don't think that Jesus wants you to
C A G
Kill other people 'cause they're Muslim
[Break]
[Verse]
G
Merry christmas everyone
I hope you’re all warm and cozy in your house
C G
It's not the kids fault that their dad went to jail
D C G
And it's not their fault there's no food in the house
D C G
And Santa Claus doesn't visit their part of town
D C G Em
And I heard a man once say that the last shall be first
C A G
Unless he only meant that for white Christians
[Break]
[Verse]
G
Happy Easter Sunday everyone
I think you all look really great in your new shirts
C G
I wonder if the kid that made it, got a new shirt too
D C G
And I wonder if he ever learned how to read and write
D C G
Or if he has running water in his house
D C G Em
And I wonder if his mom and dad are proud of his work
C A G
Or if they died working in a sweat shop
C A G
The Gap kids, Gap, or baby Gap
C A G
Abercrombie and Fitch or American Eagle
C A G
Banana Republic or regular old fashioned JC Penny
[Break/solo]
[Verse]
G
Hey there sweetheart I got news for you
I had a talk with your dad last night
C G
So I went out, and bought you this diamond ring
D C G
It came from a slave mine in Africa
D C G
Where people don't have the choice to leave
D C G Em
The man in the mine, he works under gun point
C A G
But I bought it so that I could say I love you
C A G
And I bought it so that I can say I care
C A G Em
And I bought it so that I can get inside your pants
C A G
And I buy everything because I'm an American
