[Intro 1]
[Am][Eb][Am][Eb][Am][C][Eb]
[Am][Eb][Am][C][Eb][Am]
[Eb][Am][Eb][Am][G][E][Eb]

[Verse 1]
[Am]As I look up at the sky
I [G]wonder why Momma always [Bb]cried
Was it for how fast we lived and died
Or be[Am]cause we never got

[Verse 2]
our piece of the pie?
[Am]Busting at the seams, the American Dream
Like [G]Meth said cream,
Boulevard of Broken Dreams
[Bb]Par ents with good intentions
never mention
[Am]The Brooklyn House[Eb] of Detention
[Am][Eb][Am][Eb][Am][Eb][Am]
[Eb]

[Verse 3]
[Am]Free to fly and [Eb]free to try
To [Am]get o[C]ur peace bef[Eb]ore we die
[Am]Free to fly and [Eb]free to try
To [Am]get our piece [G]of [Em]the pie and [Eb]die

[Verse 4]
[Am]Locking us down, we got cops all around,
The [G]sound of sirens drown
your own heart's pound
But you [Bb]only wanted a piece of the pie
And [Am]in your mind's eye,
Momma's still gonna cry
No matter how hard you tried,
whether it's [G]truth or lies
On the day that you die
but we're [Bb]free to fly
And free to [C]try to [Am]get our piece of [Eb]the pie

[Interlude 1]
and die
[Am][B][C][Bb][Am][B][C][Eb]

[Verse 5]
[Am]Freedom, [B]liberty, the [C]KKK
Modern democracy, we [Bb]have no say
[Am]American Dream, The [B]American Way
[C]Land of the Free, [Eb]Home [Am]of the Slave
[G]

[Interlude 2]

[Am][G][Bb][Am][Eb]

[Eb]To get o[Am]ur peace before we die

[Verse 7]

[Verse 8]
