Land Of The Free
The Killers
Great new song from the killers in Bb. You can substitute the C chord for a Csus2 to add variation to the pattern. This sound particularly good The timing can be a little confusing at times just listen to the song to get the hang out of it. I made this in a few minues after discovering the song. Sorry for any mistakes. I will give it a careful listen soon and correct any mistakes that may have slipped through or to add/remove chords. Thank you and enjoy any questions feel free to comment 17/1/19 - Added some passing chords and simplifyed the chords by moving the capo to the the third fret. Enjoy! [Intro] Csus2 [Verse] Can’t wipe the wind-blown smile from across my face It’s just the old man in me Washing his truck at the Sinclair station In the land of the free (Ooh) His mother Adeline’s family came on a ship Cut coal and planted a seed Down in them drift mines of Pennsylvania In the land of the free [Chorus] Land of the free land of the free In the land of the free Land of the free land of the free Land of the free land of the free In the land of the free (I’m standing crying) [Verse] When I go out in my car I don’t think twice But if you’re the wrong color skin (I’m standing crying) You grow up looking over both your shoulders In the land of the free And we got more people locked up than the rest of the world Right here in Red White and Blue (I’m standing crying) Incarceration’s become big business It’s harvest time out on the avenue [Chorus] Land of the free land of the free In the land of the free Land of the free land of the free Move on there’s nothing to see Land of the free land of the free In the land of the free [Bridge] Oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh I’m standing crying (Oh-oh-oh-oh) I’m standing crying (Oh-oh-oh-oh) So how many daughters tell me how many sons Do we have to have to put in the ground Before we just break down and face it: We got a problem with guns? (Oh-oh-oh-oh) In the land of the free Down at the border they’re gonna put up a wall Concrete and Rebar Steel beams (I’m standing crying) High enough to keep all those filthy hands off Of our hopes and our dreams (I’m standing crying) People who just want the same things we do In the land of the free [Chorus] Land of the free land of the free In the land of the free Land of the free land of the free Land of the free land of the free In the land of the free Land of the free land of the free Land of the free land of the free Land of the free land of the free In the land of the free (I’m standing crying)
