Liberty Unmasked by Mischief Brew
Liberty Unmasked
G C
Come see pioneers starving on trout
Em
Meet the drunkards of spirit,
D G
of soil, of stout
G
But old silent fires
C
shall someday bathe all
Em D
A cider ferments in us all
Final call!
G
Hear the prophets
C
whose days have gone dim
Em
And for all royal silver,
D G
she still won’t wed him
G
Hear the bastards,
C
yes among us, they go
Em
All flaunting freedoms
D G
so scarcely known
G C Em D
G D G C
How I see, merrily,
G D C
The unmasking of liberty
G D G C
As she bows to misery,
G
But her open hands,
C Em D
The joy and dance
G
And this pattern
C
across our great quilt,
Em D
for ages to span
G C
You’re a traveller packing for years
Em D G
Armour of rage in a shower of tears
G
And you never could see
C
that you were wild and loose
Em
‘Til a baby blue soldier
D
forbid you to choose
G
Now you cry, “Off with these systems
C
And off with these laws!
Em
Bring on the seasons,
D
tradition, and song!
G
The patterns and cycles!
C
We, hitchers of stars,
Em
shall reel in adventure
D
To shatter these boards
G C Em D
To march from these wars
G C Em D
G D G C
How I see, merrily,
G D C
The unmasking of liberty
G D G C
As she bows to misery,
G
But her open hands,
C Em D
The joy and dance
G
And this pattern
C
across our great quilt,
Em D
for ages to span
G C
But her open hands,
Em D
the joy and dance
G
And this pattern
C
across our great quilt
Em D
For ages to span
