D# C# In the howlin' wind D# C# Comes a stingin' rain D# C# See it drivin' nails D# C# Into the souls on the tree of pain From the firefly A red orange glow See the face of fear Runnin' scared in the valley below Chorus: D# C# Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue Bullet the blue In the locust wind Comes a rattle and hum Jacob wrestled the angel And the angel was overcome You plant a demon seed You raise a flower of fire We see them burnin' crosses See the flames, higher and higher Chorus Suit and tie comes up to me His face red like a rose on a thorn bush Like all the colours of a royal flush And he's peelin' off those dollar bills (Slappin' 'em down) One hundred, two hundred And I can see those fighter planes And I can see those fighter planes Across the mud huts as children sleep Through the alleys of a quiet city street And take the staircase to the first floor Turn the key and slowly unlock the door As a man breathes into his saxophone And through the walls you hear the city groan Outside, it's America Outside, it's America America Across the field you see the sky ripped open See the rain through a gaping wound Pounding on the women and children Who run Into the arms Of America You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA Am C# D# Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
