Maiden Voyage Acordes

	   


Intro: G  Bm  C  D  (2x) 

                G                               Bm 
It was a maiden voyage, she rode shotgun in the back 
   C                       D 
We made snow angels in the motel tire tracks 
            G                           Bm 
The traffic thinned, it parted just for us 
                 C             D       G 
Through rain and wind, through ash and rust 


           Em                           C 
We saw the white dome, like a gleaming breast 
                         G                                    D 
But our eyes were on the White House and to hell with all the rest 
           Em                             C 
The masses gathered, drinking frozen margaritas 
                 G           D               G 
At the 8th and G south face, Capitol Hill Cantinas 
  

 
            Em                   C 
It goes like this, you take your hand 
            G                         D 
You lift it up and you put it on your heart 
              Em 
And there you stand 
           C           G                       D 
Singing, ’This land is your land, this land is my land?� 


         G                   Bm 
A little body so packed with clothes 
     C                              D 
Disappearing into hordes and lining up in useless rows 
   G                      Bm 
Of three million people, ashamed and accused 
          C                                   D           G 
Scared to say where they're from, angry their name's been used 


          Em                C 
I held my girl as she fell asleep 
                G                      D 
At the noontime hour, at the inaugural weep 
              Em                         C 
A man said to me, ’You are living in the present moment?� 
           G                         D    G 
And I felt shut out, cold, tired and all alone 


 
            Em                   C 
It goes like this, you take your hand 
            G                         D 
You lift it up and you put it on your heart 
              Em 
And there you stand 
           C           G                       D 
Singing, ’This land is your land, this land is my land?� 


INTERLUDE: G  Bm  C  D 


               G                      Bm 
The privileged held, while the masses flowed 
     C                           D  
Just like a mighty river running through my soul 
        G                           Bm 
My girl cried for a flag, something she could understand 
       C                               D        G 
And we marched through the street as I held her hand 


              Em                        C 
The good days come, not just the golden dies 
             G                    D  
As the giant sleeps under cumulus skies 
            Em                   C 
We sing and dance and scream our names 
                       G         D           G 
Sleep the sleep of the weary and drive home again 


 
                   Em                   C 
Honey, it goes like this, you take your hand 
            G                         D 
You lift it up and you put it on your heart 
              Em 
And there you stand 
           C           G                       D 
Singing, ’This land is your land, this land is my land?� 


Chorus: 
             Em                  C 
It goes like this, you take your hand 
            G                         D 
You lift it up and you put it on your heart 
              Em 
And there you stand 
           C           G                       D      G     Bm   C  D  G 
Singing, ’This land is your land, this land is my____ land____?�
