 Chorus: Divided States of America Divided States of the World If we don't all stand together We will fall Dm Divided States of America A# F Divided States of the World Dm If we don't all stand together A# F We will fall Dm How many miles must I walk in your shoes A# F 'Fore I know how you feel, know how you feelin'? Dm How many times must I see you on the news A# F 'Fore I know it's for real, know it's for real? And how many nights must I hear you sing the blues? Another gun man running on the loose How many times must I turn a blind eye And deny what I'm seeing, deny what I'm seeing? Another protest to another march Incite a riot, boy - ready, set, charge Another gun fest, drop another bomb Another war child, tell me, what the fuck is going on? Dm Another scandal from the man in charge A# F Another white collar criminal at large C We're waking up, we're catching on We've had enough, we're standing strong Chorus: Dm Divided States of America A# F Divided States of the World Dm If we don't all stand together A# F We will fall Dm Divided States of America A# F Divided States of the World Dm If we don't all stand together A# F We will fall Dm A# F 'Cause they built these walls so high Dm A# F Let's reach across that great divide How many crimes do we have to live through 'Fore we start intervening, start intervening? How many lives are we going to lose 'Fore we lost all the meaning, lost all the meaning? Another battleground to another war Another time to speak less, listen more We're waking up, we're catching on We've had enough, we're standing strong Chorus 'Cause they built these walls so high Let's reach across that great divide 'Cause they built these walls so high Let's reach across that great divide Gm Brick by brick, stone by stone A# Dm Let's tear this down until it's gone C Until it's gone, until it's gone Gm Brick by brick, stone by stone A# Let's build the bridge to get us home Dm C We're not alone, we're not alone Dm A# F Yeah (we're not alone) Chorus 'Cause they built these walls so high Let's reach across that great divide 'Cause they built these walls so high Let's reach across that great divide You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  A#  C  Dm  F  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
