Am
You in your fancy
C
Material world
Don't see the links of chain
G
Binding blood


Am
Our own ancestors
C
Are hungry ghosts
Closets so full of bones
G
They won't close


*
*B
Call it upward mobility
Em Am
But you've been sold down the river
Just another form of slavery
C
And the whole man-made white world
Is your master


Am
You in your fancy
C
Material world
Create in your own image
G
A supreme god


Am
Your virgin mary
C
Your holy ghosts
Claimed to be pure of heart
G
Have hands that are stained with blood

*
*B
Call it upward mobility
Em Am
But you've been sold down the river
Just another form of slavery
C
And the whole man-made white world
Is your master


Am
You in your fancy
C
Material world
Don't see the links of chain
G
Binding


Am
Our own ancestors
C
Are hungry ghosts
Closets so full of bones
G
They won't close


*
*B
Call it upward mobility
Em Am
But you've been sold down the river
Just another form of slavery
C
And the whole man-made white world
Is your master


Am
You in your fancy
C
Material world
Don't see the links of chain
G
Binding
