Community Ballad by Laura Goldhamer
Community Ballad
D A G D A G
I'll see and believe it to be - as plain as the naked eye sees
D A G D A G
love lived in full and 3-D - without marking territory
D A G D A G
and oh boy by tooth or by nail - for standing ground one must prevail
D A G D A G
for land owning only has sway - and all else is way off base
D G Bm Bm G D
hear me roar, - I've got a bite and a bark
D G Bm Bm G D
learn the skills - that don't apply anymore
D A G D A G
sleep has put seeds in my eyes - that can grow into dreams realized
D A G D A G
and know how to then ask for a hand - though it means we would depend
D G Bm Bm G D
Trust someone, - not in God or politicians
D G Bm Bm G D
what is wanted - is kindred to talk and listen
B: bridge
D A G D A G
I've got all I need to survive - a hatchet and small pocket knife
D A G D A G
cut off what is soft and humane - and be alone at the end of the day
D G Bm Bm G D
But I'll be fine, - you've got yours and I've got all mine
D G Bm Bm G D
best kept separate, - and lessen the mess that is made
D A G D A G
let's build us a better machine - to manufacture more happy
D A G D A G
and do the job we cannot seem - to perfect of nursing babies
D G Bm G D
and mass culture waltzed right off a cliff - and we almost... followed
D G Bm G D
and dogma set down in my throat - and I damn near… swallowed
D G Bm G D
the system that claims to be rich - I found out… it's hollow
D G Bm G D
and the wealth i want isn't in print - and cannot be... borrowed
