Heartland accords

           F
There's a home place under fire tonight in the Heartland
         C
And the bankers are taking my home and my land from me
                                        F
There's a big gapping hole in my chest now, where my heart was
                     C
  And a hole in the sky, where God used to be

           F
There's a home place under fire tonight in the Heartland
           C
There's a well where the water's so bitter nobody can't drink
                                           F
And no way to get high and my mouth is so dry that I can't talk
            C
Oh, they  know that 'm dying why nobody crying for me

              C
My American dream, fell apart at the seams
                     C
You tell me what it means, you tell me what it means

INSTRUMENTAL (C)

           F
There's a home place under fire tonight in a Heartland
     C
and bankers are taking the homes and the land away
           F
There's a young boy closing his eyes tonight in a Heartland
          C
who will wake up a man with some land and a loan he can't pay

               C
His American dream, fell apart at the seams
                     C
You tell me what it means, you tell me what it means.
