lyrics

G Bm
these hands have made you profit
G C G
these hands have cleaned your stores
G Bm C
these hands were made for love and peace
G D G
but you have hardened them for war

(chorus)

C D Bm
you should not have monetized my kindness
C D C Bm Am
and left me only with violence
C D Bm
with ten dirty fingers clenched and dripping blood
G D G
one day these hands will tear you down
G D Em
one day these hands will tear you down
G D G
one day these hands will tear you down

these hands have toiled hours
in your empire they built
these hands are bruised and broken
from bearing all your guilt

(chorus)

Em
when every modicum of human decency
Am Bm Em
has been co-opted for profit
Am Bm Em
rage is all that’s left
Am Bm C
that belongs to me
Am
the world took everything from me
C D G
did it take everything from you?
C Bm Am C Bm Am
let’s get together and finally do
C Bm Am G
what we’ve been plotting to do

C D Bm
you should not have monetized our kindness
C D C Bm Am
and left us only with violence
C D Bm
with ten billion dirty fingers clenched and dripping blood
G D G
one day these hands will tear em down
G D Em
one day these hands will tear em down
G D G
one day these hands will tear em down
