C#m         A
We live in a fabled world
    E                B
Of dreaming boys and wide-eyed girls
C#m                  A
Where precious few get a fair start
E
These times can break you
B
These times can leave you
Torn apart

C#m                  A
The story starts with genocide
E              B
slavery those terrorized
C#m              A
families, cultures torn apart
     E            B
This ugly truth, only the start
          C#m                    
And it's a white washed pact
A
The founding act
E         B
Revolution or contract?
C#m             A            B
To subjugate, to torture, to abuse 
for the few

Chorus:
C#m              E
We live in a fabled world
                  A
Of terror day and night
                 B
All hidden in plain sight
C#m               E
We live in a fabled world
                      A 
Where the poor and the weak
                      B
Are pawns for profit's sake

C#m                 A
Lock up, mass incarcerate
E                        B
The new jim crow, the new slave trade
C#m                  A
If doctor king were here today
E                       B
He'd fight for much more than a dream
C#m               A
And you should go sign up
E                  
Join the fight, the rich sleep 
           B 
While you kill tonight
C#m             A
Love thy enemy as yourself
       E               B
As you carpet bomb him to hell

Chorus:
C#m              E
We live in a fabled world
                  A
Of terror day and night
                 B
All hidden in plain sight
C#m               E
We live in a fabled world
                      A 
Where the poor and the weak
                      B
Are pawns for profit's sake

C#m             A
We live in a fabled world
   E           B    
A corpocratic killing field
C#m                  A
Where fascist profits are a lock
E
These times can break you
B
These times can leave you
Torn apart

Chorus

C#m           E
We live in a fabled world 
C#m           E
We live in a fabled world
A
These times can break you
B
These times can leave you,
