Chorus:
Divided States of America
Divided States of the World
If we don't all stand together
We will fall
Dm
Divided States of America
 A#                    F
Divided States of the World
   Dm
If we don't all stand together
         A#  F
We will fall

Dm
How many miles must I walk in your shoes
          A#               F
'Fore I know how you feel, know how you feelin'?
Dm
How many times must I see you on the news
         A#                F
'Fore I know it's for real, know it's for real?

And how many nights must I hear you sing the blues?
Another gun man running on the loose
How many times must I turn a blind eye
And deny what I'm seeing, deny what I'm seeing?

Another protest to another march
Incite a riot, boy - ready, set, charge
Another gun fest, drop another bomb
Another war child, tell me, what the fuck is going on?

Dm
Another scandal from the man in charge
A#                      F
Another white collar criminal at large
 C
We're waking up, we're catching on
We've had enough, we're standing strong

Chorus:
 Dm
Divided States of America
  A#                   F
Divided States of the World
   Dm
If we don't all stand together
         A# F
We will fall
   Dm
Divided States of America
   A#                  F
Divided States of the World
    Dm
If we don't all stand together
         A# F
We will fall

                         Dm       A#  F
'Cause they built these walls so high
               Dm         A#      F
Let's reach across that great divide

How many crimes do we have to live through
'Fore we start intervening, start intervening?
How many lives are we going to lose
'Fore we lost all the meaning, lost all the meaning?

Another battleground to another war
Another time to speak less, listen more
We're waking up, we're catching on
We've had enough, we're standing strong

Chorus

'Cause they built these walls so high
Let's reach across that great divide
'Cause they built these walls so high
Let's reach across that great divide

Gm
Brick by brick, stone by stone
       A#                        Dm
Let's tear this down until it's gone
            C
Until it's gone, until it's gone
Gm
Brick by brick, stone by stone
       A#
Let's build the bridge to get us home
Dm          C
We're not alone, we're not alone
Dm     A#           F
Yeah (we're not alone)

Chorus

'Cause they built these walls so high
Let's reach across that great divide
'Cause they built these walls so high
Let's reach across that great divide
