It's Alright Ma, (I'm Only Bleeding) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Dm][G][Dm]
Darkness at the break of
[D]noon, shad[G]ows even the silver spoon
The [Dm]hand made blade, the [A]child's [G]balloon,
eclipses both the sun and moon
To under[Bb]stand you know too soon,
there is no [A]sense in [Dm]trying
Pointed threats, they bluff with [G]scorn
Suicide [Bm]remarks are torn
From a [G]fool's gold mouthpiece,
[C]a hollow horn
Plays [G]wasted words that [A]prove to warn
But [Bb]he's not busy being born,
[Dm]he's busy dyin'
So don't [D]fear if you [A]hear
A [D]foreign sound to your [G]ear
[D]It's [A]alright,
[G]I'm[A] only bleedi[D]n'[G][D][Dm]
For them that must obey authority
That they [G]do not respect in any degree
Who des[C]pise their jobs, their destiny
Speak [G]jealously of them that are free
do [Bb]what they do just to be nothing
[G]more than [Dm]something they in[D]vest in[Dm]
A question in your nerves is lit, yet
[G]you know there is no an[Dm]swer fit
[G]to [C]satisfy and assure you not to quit, to
[G]keep it in your mind and not forget
[Bdim]that it is[Bb] not he or she or them
or it you be[Dm]long [D]to[Dm][D][Dm]
And [D]though the masters make the [A]rules
Oh, the [D]wise men and the [G]fools
[D]It's [A]all right,
Mom, I'm only dying
[D][G][D]
