C#7
Well, the ring leaders are hiding in the bushes
         C#7sus4
And they ain't looking to be seen
    D#m7              F#
The media's eating it all up
         C#7
And they instigate the whole damn thing

C#7
You're either red or blue, black or white
          B
And there ain't no in between
        F#/A#
But the tickets are on sale to watch it
all go to hell
                          C#
Right there on your TV screen

Chorus:
C#            B           F#                C#
Tell me what happened to wanting peace and love
                 B                      F#
They got us all fighting now and we're taking
         C#
off the gloves
                    B
Don't matter what side you're on
     F#                  C#
You know you're out for blood
                B       F#            C#
Welcome to the Divided States of America

Well, the way I see it
The fate of this country ain't ever
been up to one man
This is still one nation under God
And this is still His land

There's just one too many agendas
And what I don't understand
Is there's blood in our streets and blood overseas
And it's all on our hands

Chorus - x2

                  B
Welcome to the Divided
      E                     C# B
The United States of America
                 F#/A# C#
States of America
