Thereʼs a home place under fire tonight in the Heartland
B F#7 B
And the bankers are taking my home and my land from me
B7 E
Thereʼs a big gapping hole in my chest now, where my heart was
F#7 B
And a hole in the sky, where God used to be
B B7 E
Thereʼs a home place under fire tonight in the Heartland
B F#7 B
Thereʼs a well where the waterʼs so bitter nobody canʼt drink
B7 E
And no way to get high and my mouth is so dry that I canʼt talk
B F#7 B
Oh, they know that ʼm dying why nobody crying for me
F# B
My American dream, fell apart at the seams
F# B
You tell me what it means, you tell me what it means
B B7 E B F#7 B B7 B7 E B F#7 B
B B7 E
Thereʼs a home place under fire tonight in a Heartland
B F#7 B
and bankers are taking the homes and the land away
B B7 E
Thereʼs a young boy closing his eyes tonight in a Heartland
B F#7 B
who will wake up a man with some land and a loan he canʼt pay
F# B
His American dream, fell apart at the seams
F# B
You tell me what it means, you tell me what it means.
