Thereʼs a home place under fire tonight in the Heartland
C# G#7 C#
And the bankers are taking my home and my land from me
C#7 F#
Thereʼs a big gapping hole in my chest now, where my heart was
G#7 C#
And a hole in the sky, where God used to be
C# C#7 F#
Thereʼs a home place under fire tonight in the Heartland
C# G#7 C#
Thereʼs a well where the waterʼs so bitter nobody canʼt drink
C#7 F#
And no way to get high and my mouth is so dry that I canʼt talk
C# G#7 C#
Oh, they know that ʼm dying why nobody crying for me
G# C#
My American dream, fell apart at the seams
G# C#
You tell me what it means, you tell me what it means
C# C#7 F# C# G#7 C# C#7 C#7 F# C# G#7 C#
C# C#7 F#
Thereʼs a home place under fire tonight in a Heartland
C# G#7 C#
and bankers are taking the homes and the land away
C# C#7 F#
Thereʼs a young boy closing his eyes tonight in a Heartland
C# G#7 C#
who will wake up a man with some land and a loan he canʼt pay
G# C#
His American dream, fell apart at the seams
G# C#
You tell me what it means, you tell me what it means.
C# C#7 F#
Thereʼs a home place under fire tonight in a Heartland
