 BECOME YOU (Amy Ray)

 -----------
 

 CAPO ON 7TH FRET!!! (Amy usually plays this song with a capo on that position)
 
 G D C D G (x2) (that's the intro)
 
 Em                           D 
 I heard you sing a rebel song
 Em                        D 
 Sung it loud and all alone
 Em                                D 
 We can't afford the things you say
 Em                          D 
 We can't afford the warranty
 
 Em                                 
 Well I see you walking in the glare
 D                            
 Down the county road we share
 Em                          
 Our southern blood my heresy
 D                        
 Damn that old confederacy
 
 G          D                  C        
 It took a long time to become the thing
 D          G 
 I am to you
 G                     D    C 
 And you won't tear it apart
 C              
 Without a fight
 D              Em 
 Without a heart
 
 Em                                         D 
 I'm sorry for what you've learned (learned)
 When you feel the tables turned
 To run so hard in your race (race)
 Now you found who set the pace
 
 Em                   
 The lande aristocracy
 D                         
 Exploiting all your enmity
 Em                             
 All your daddy's fought in vain
 D                              
 Leave you with the mark of cain
 
 It took a long time to become the thing
 I am to you and you won't tear it apart
 Without a fight
 Without a heart
 
 It took a long time to become you
 Become you
 
 Em                          D 
 The center holds so they say
 (It never held too well for me)
 Em                           D 
 It never held too well for me
 (The center holds so they say)
 I won't stop short of common ground
 (That vilifies the trodden down)
 That vilifies the trodden down
 (I won't stop)
 
 Em                              
 The center held the bonded slave
 D                            
 For the sake of industry (ah)
 Em                             
 The center held the bloody hand
 D                        
 of the execution man (ah)
 
 It took a long time to become the thing
 I am to you and you won't tear it apart
 Without a fight
 Without a heart
 
 It took a long time to become you
 Become you
 
 It took a long time to become you
 Become you
