   There was life in the little house
Bm                G
Above the hospital for the dying,
G       
So I will keep singing,

 I will keep fishing for some words in the water all around me

Bm  Bm  Bm   Bm/A Bm/A Bm/A

(same chords as first verse)
The house of home shook and as the shelter broke you got a
good long look
At a country and class run by buzzards and crooks
Mississippi! Mississippi!
Through CIA and Klan
Through McCarth's damn blacklist, Nixon, and Nam
They tear-gassed the students but you had a plan
And the weight of the world is on the sheriff's
shoulders

(Same as first chorus)
There was life in the little house,
Above the hospital for the dying.
So I will keep singing,
I will keep fishing for some words in this water all around me

There's more to life than lovers and chores

There's more to life that an office at the top floor,
F#                             G      A
Somehow, someway, we all find peace,
   A/Bb  
We all find
